Canton Modernpresents twentieth-century Cantonese art and visual culture in its full complexity as an important chapter in global modernism. United in a shared linguistic and cultural identity, the southern port cities of Guangzhou (also known as Canton) and Hong Kong were historically marginal in China. The birthplace of revolution, the two cities gave rise to a distinctive visual and artistic modernism, one shaped by cross-cultural interactions and tensions between conservative and progressive artworlds. Cantonese artists broke away from the elegant poetics of classical ink painting to forge a socially oriented realism, depicting subjects ranging from leisure and labour to war and disaster. Working as journalists and publishers, they exploited the immediacy and circulation of print, photography, and cartoons to intervene in and even reform society.

Hong Kong Disneyland doesn&#39;t have long queue and we were able to go to every area in one day. Recommend downloading the app and tracking all the places/attractions there. Enjoy!

I went to Ocean Park specifically to see the pandas. The pandas have a great living environment there, with a constant temperature 24 hours a day. While the pandas are playing outside, the keepers are always there observing and recording their activities; they are very diligent and responsible. I hope our six darlings live a happy life in Hong Kong.

It is a place where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Hong Kong city. The booking process is convenient, and there is no need to queue to buy tickets, as the on-site ticket lines are usually very long. Therefore, purchasing tickets online in this way is the best option. The price is affordable and the system is easy to use.

Victoria Peak

Hong Kong peak is the best peak and panoramic view of a city I have come across since Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles. The general scenery of the area is wonderful and unmatched. I went both at night and during the day. I would highly recommend night time as it looks so much better and the bakehouse cafe is much easier to get a space in while you look at Hong Kong

It&#39;s definitely worth a visit! Although the quantity and quality of exhibits are not as impressive as those in domestic museums, the exhibition layout is very artistically thoughtful, and the immersive interactive experience is excellent. Highly recommended!

I mainly went to see Zao Wou-Ki&#39;s paintings. I was surprised at how complex his panel paintings were; the finished products were fantastic. The upstairs exhibition hall had many abstract art pieces and interactive exhibits, which were quite fun. You could even slip on slippers to appreciate the artist&#39;s work. I have to complain about the bus ride after leaving the M+ exhibition hall. For some reason, the W4 bus took us directly to the West Kowloon High-Speed ​​Rail Station, which surprised all the passengers, as the app indicated it should go to Canton Road.
