Stories from the Alley: Local Life Memories at the Hong Kong Story House

Located in Sham Shui Po, the Hong Kong Story House is a community cultural museum operated by a local organization. It collects everyday items and neighborhood memories of Hong Kong residents. The exhibits include old appliances, toys, newspapers, and market stall setups, recreating the charm of old-style tenement buildings and dai pai dongs. Admission is free, with donations welcomed to support its operations. Currently, the museum is showcasing a special exhibition titled "Temple Street Landscapes," which documents the vendor ecosystem and neighborhood stories around Temple Street, highlighting the rich human touch of grassroots life. Though the venue is small, its content is heartfelt and moving, offering a gentle corner to rediscover childhood and old Hong Kong. After visiting, you can stroll along Tai Nan Street in Sham Shui Po to explore more nostalgic shops and handmade craft markets.
