Under the umbrella of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, the Hong Kong Heritage Museum presents a unique mix of history, art and culture in a great variety of programmes that cater for the wide-ranging interests of the public.
Designed both to entertain and to enlighten, our lively and informative exhibitions and activities offer a kaleidoscopic array of cultural and educational experiences for our visitors.
Featuring an exhibition area of some 7,500 square metres, the museum houses six permanent galleries - the Orientation Theatre, the New Territories Heritage Hall, the Cantonese Opera Heritage Hall, the T.T. Tsui Gallery of Chinese Art, the Chao Shao-an Gallery and the Children's Discovery Gallery - as well as six thematic galleries that regularly host exhibitions showcasing the diverse treasures of our heritage.
In order to reach out to the community and encourage public participation in museum activities, the museum publishes a quarterly newsletter, produces teaching/learning kits and worksheets, organises seminars, school and theatre programmes on culture, history and art, puts on activities for children and families and provides guided tours, with all of these resources specially designed so that visitors can get the most out of their visit to the museum.
