Since its opening in April 1991, the Hong Kong Science Museum has proven itself to be an ideal and unique place for learning science!

Through presenting quality exhibitions and fun science programmes in an enjoyable environment, the Museum serves to popularize science to the public and support science education in schools. In contrast to traditional museums, visitors at the Science Museum are encouraged to explore exhibits in their own way and thus experience the fun of discovery learning.

Occupying a permanent exhibition area of 6,500 square metres, the Museum houses over 500 exhibits. Nearly 70 percent of them are interactive and suitable for visitors of all ages. Among them, the most prominent exhibit is the largest device of its kind in the world: the Energy Machine. Another attraction is the DC-3 airplane which is the first local airliner and the first exhibit moved into the Museum building.

The Museum also has a 745 sq.m. Special Exhibition Hall, a 295-seat Lecture Hall, a Classroom, a Computer Classroom, a Laboratory and a Resource Centre. Other ancillary facilities include a Gift Shop and a Book Shop.

Apart from permanent exhibitions, the Museum regularly presents temporary exhibitions on a wide variety of topics related to science and modern technology. The Museum also organizes and develops a multitude of extension activities and educational programmes for the public.
