I went to the Hong Kong Palace Museum a while ago to see the new exhibition 'From Botticelli to Van Gogh' Authentic works from 50 art masters Including Botticelli, Monet, Van Gogh, Raphael, etc. It really is a visual feast, well worth the trip - The interactive area's Van Gogh 'Long Grass with Butterflies' The butterflies will dance with your steps, very spiritual and beautiful The light and shadow on your body as if you are in the painting - 🖼️Hong Kong Palace Museum Exhibition Hall 9 Exhibition until 2024.4.11 -

Recently, while visiting Hong Kong, I took the opportunity to visit the Hong Kong Palace Museum of Culture. I believe everyone is familiar with this museum, as it is the only cultural institution in the world that focuses on the exhibition of artifacts from the Forbidden City! If you, like the author, are a fan of contemporary design, then you must not miss this exhibition: 'In Pursuit of Antiquity'. This exhibition uses contemporary design theory to re-examine traditional Chinese crafts, and explores the common ground between traditional crafts and contemporary design. Gallery 5 is the highlight of this exhibition. I saw a Qianlong-era reticulated glass bottle with a flared mouth, where three colors were used very cleverly, looking very modern, but in fact, it has a history of more than 200 years. The design thinking of the ancients was indeed very unique, and hundreds of years later, this design can still lead the trend. Let's talk about the architectural design of the museum. From a distance, it seems quite ordinary, but up close, you will find very unique aspects, and the interior design is also outstanding. The structure is very dynamic, giving you a sense of grandeur. The interior of the museum retains many details that echo the Forbidden City in Beijing, and incorporates the concept of the central axis of the Forbidden City into the Hong Kong Palace Museum. Moreover, on the two-level terrace of the exhibition hall, you can also enjoy the beautiful and spectacular seascape. These features make people admire the aesthetic level of the museum's architectural design. It can be said that the Hong Kong Palace Museum of Culture is a very special cultural institution, and also a place of wisdom that is in touch with the trend. This visit was very inspiring for the author, and I look forward to the emergence of more such cultural institutions in the future. If you also come to Hong Kong, why not visit this museum. I believe you will also find unexpected surprises!

Before, my impression of Hong Kong was "shopping paradise" and the "pearl of the Orient". Actually, Hong Kong is a city with diverse cultures. It has a unique historical and cultural background. On the streets of Hong Kong, you can always see the intersection of Chinese and Western cultures 🍃 without even trying. After three years, I set foot on this precious land of Hong Kong again. Organized this super artistic travel guide, taking you on a city stroll and experiencing the charm of Hong Kong, the art capital 👋🏻 · I have always believed that to understand a city, The quickest way is to explore local museums and street alleys. One has cultural heritage, the other has worldly fireworks. When they merge, they create a blend of ordinary life and strong artistic atmosphere. Just like today, we will recommend two cultural treasures in Hong Kong, allowing us to explore another side of this city of art. / 🚅Itinerary: West Kowloon Station in Hong Kong → Hong Kong Palace Museum → Tai Kwun. 🔻Hong Kong Palace Museum (Figures 1-3, 7-11) The Hong Kong Palace Museum draws on the architecture and collections of the Beijing Palace Museum, and reinterprets the two-layer exhibition of the Palace Museum culture in a way that combines the ancient and modern, and integrates Chinese and Western cultures. The exhibits are carefully selected by the Hong Kong Palace Museum team and the Beijing Palace Museum, taking more than a year to select from 1.86 million collections. Each piece is splendid. I prefer the "Concrete as Vessel" ceramic exhibition, with its "Qing Glaze Brush Washer" in the color of blue sky and rain, the Ming Chenghua Doucai Cup, the Jingdezhen Blue and White Flat Bottle... Appreciating a piece of ancient porcelain, thinking about a piece of ancient meaning, I am deeply shocked by the beauty of these orderly artifacts and cultures that have been passed down, and I wish I could travel back in time to appreciate the style of the ancients. Don't miss the observation deck upstairs when you come here, and be sure to stay until night because the night view is too beautiful. 🚇Ke Tudiandian Subway Station Exit J2- 🔻Main Exhibition Hall (Figures 4-5, 12-14) The Tai Kwun is located in the heart of Central, with a history of nearly 170 years. It mainly consists of 16 historical buildings. Nowadays, it has transformed into a popular spot full of artistic atmosphere. The architectural complex retains its intact buildings and offers free admission for visiting. Moreover, there are periodic exhibitions. At the Grand Hall, I am more impressed by the charm of architecture. The new and the old, the East and the West, inheritance and innovation, culture and fashion are all organically integrated in these revitalized buildings. You can have a dialogue with the past across time and space, or appreciate trendy art... In the grand architecture and the details of art, you can slowly understand the changes of this city. 🚇: Exit D1 of Island Line / If you still have time, why not continue to explore the West Kowloon Cultural District, where you can see the first contemporary visual art museum in Asia, M+, which is also one of Hong Kong's important landmarks. The huge exhibition space is enough for you to wander all day. . Let's gather in Hong Kong and attend an art appointment. / ‼️Hong Kong travel tips: 🔸Hong Kong and Macau Communication Certificate + Endorsement 🔸Octopus Card 🔸International Roaming/HK SIM Card 🔸Convert the plug.

Hey dear fairies! 🌈 Finally arrived in magical Hong Kong! 🇭🇰 Wow wow wow~ It's my first time here, I'm so excited! 🤩 ✅Departure Living in Shenzhen, it's really convenient to enter Hong Kong from the Luohu port! 🚄 The clearance speed is super fast, the whole process is incredibly smooth, I didn't even have time to react, and I was already on the Hong Kong subway! 😆 ⚠️Route Kennedy Town - Central (Art Society) - Gun Factory Street Skybridge - Star Avenue (k11) - Mong Kok 1️⃣-3️⃣ The popular places in Kennedy Town are really good for taking pictures! The basketball court is also a popular check-in spot, super easy to find. After taking pictures, you can go for a walk by the nearby sea, it feels really comfortable! 🌊 4️⃣-7️⃣ Then take the subway to Central for a stroll, it feels a bit like Japan and a bit like Sydney, haha, Hong Kong is really a fusion city. The Art Society and the Gun Factory Street Skybridge are excellent choices for good photos, and the distance is not far, great! 📸👍🏻 8️⃣-9️⃣ Finally, in order not to miss the sunset in Hong Kong, I went to Star Avenue. Here I feel like I'm holding hands with Tony Leung 🥰 (just kidding). Looking at the handprints of the Hong Kong stars, it brings back the beautiful memories of having TVB accompany me when I was a child. Finally, I went to Mong Kok at night, took the world's longest escalator, it feels like a large mall and food street, not much interesting haha... 😅 ☑️Summary Overall, the one-day tour in Hong Kong feels not bad! My friend said that Hong Kong is a place where you don't want to go again after one visit, but I think it's okay! It's suitable for a leisurely stroll to feel the city atmosphere, especially Central and the city center are really like Sydney, walking all the way and feeling, every street is so familiar, it feels a bit like crossing 🕵️‍♀️. Fairies, who understands my heart, come and talk about your Hong Kong stories! 🗣️💬

Definitely a place that has to be visited. I was a little hesitant when invited to visit the museum with a tour group of people who were much older than I was. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience - I learnt a lot about the history as well as the interactive games/attractions that were included in the tour. One of the highlights was a picture taking attraction where they would put your faces on “traditional paintings” - and could be played with more than 1 friend. We were also given the opportunity to try digital Chinese calligraphy and practice our brush strokes. Not forgetting that the view from the sky deck was amazing amazing amazingggggggg!!!! Hong Kong truly is beautiful.

Next stop, arriving in Hong Kong. It's my third time in Hong Kong, and this weekend was supposed to be about helping a friend with a credit card application. However, unexpectedly, it's Easter holiday, so it was a wasted trip. Instead, let's have a Hong Kong City walk. Perhaps it's because I'm Cantonese and grew up watching Hong Kong films, I've always had a special affection for Hong Kong. I can always find fragments of childhood memories in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong, warm and nostalgic. First stop: Sham Shui Po Apliu Street. I usually visit the Central and Causeway Bay areas in Hong Kong, which are bustling but lack some of the Hong Kong flavor. Sham Shui Po reveals the essence of life, stripped of the bustling decorations. Here I ate at Ah Yat Tofu and Sun Heung Yuen. Ah Yat Tofu is very generous with its ingredients, with a strong bean flavor and a light beany taste, but it's all sweet here, so be cautious if you can't handle sweet tofu desserts! (Personally, I prefer the softer ones). Sun Heung Yuen really offers great value for money. My friend and I ordered pig's trotter noodles, beef brisket noodles, and egg beef sandwiches. The noodles are very chewy and the portions are generous (the same portion and price are almost the same as in Guangzhou), the pig's trotter is soft and melts in your mouth, and the beef brisket is very flavorful. Compared to their signature dishes, they seem a bit ordinary. Second stop: Hong Kong Heritage Museum. To understand a city, you must first understand its history and culture. Jin Yong's martial arts novels and unique film art are important parts of Hong Kong culture. The artworks are also very interesting. It's hard to believe that these are artworks from 50 years ago. I recommend everyone to go and see for themselves to gain a deeper understanding of Hong Kong. Third stop: Hong Kong Palace Museum. Located next to Victoria Harbour, you need to purchase tickets at the self-service ticket machine on the first floor. A regular ticket costs 55 yuan and allows access to galleries 1-6. Galleries 7-9 require an additional ticket (the Palace Museum galleries are also inside). Most of the exhibits are from the Ming and Qing dynasties (I wonder if they were all 'taken' by the British army), and you can also see the opulence of the Qing era. There are also a few private exhibits. I recommend it to anyone interested in or with a good understanding of Qing dynasty history, as you can basically learn about the life of the Qing royal family.

#winhkflight During my spring vacation in Hong Kong, I had the pleasure of visiting the Hong Kong Palace Museum! 🏯 Located in the heart of the West Kowloon Cultural District, this museum offers a fascinating journey into Chinese art and culture.The entrance fee was quite reasonable, making it accessible for visitors of all budgets. As I entered the museum, I was greeted by a stunning collection of artifacts, spanning thousands of years of Chinese history. From ancient ceramics to exquisite paintings, each piece told a story of China's rich cultural heritage.One of the highlights of the museum was the special exhibition featuring treasures from the Forbidden City in Beijing. It was truly awe-inspiring to see these priceless artifacts up close and learn about their historical significance.After exploring the museum, I took a stroll through the lush greenery of the nearby Art Park, enjoying the beautiful views of Victoria Harbour and the iconic Hong Kong skyline. Other attractions such as the Hong Kong Museum of Art and the Avenue of Stars were also within walking distance, offering plenty of opportunities for further exploration.Overall, my visit to the Hong Kong Palace Museum was a memorable experience that deepened my appreciation for Chinese art and history.
