Pathology and Humanity: The White Wall Memories of the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences

#HongKongMuseumGuide Housed in the former "Pathology Institute" building in the Mid-Levels, the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences is not just an exhibition of medical history but a profound reflection on humanity’s confrontation with diseases, epidemics, and medical ethics. Exhibits range from plague specimens and ancient surgical tools to the integration of Chinese and Western medicine, with immersive scene recreations. Adult tickets are HKD 20, with concessions for students and seniors at HKD 10. The current special exhibition, "The Shadow of Epidemics in Hong Kong: A Century of Infectious Disease Records," explores public health challenges from cholera and SARS to COVID-19, richly illustrated and deeply moving. Outside, the original red brick building and herbal garden are preserved, offering a rare tranquil spot for contemplation. After visiting, it is recommended to walk to the nearby Hospital Road to experience the historic atmosphere of the old district.
