My personal experience visiting the exhibition "Standing Together Through Thick and Thin" to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China

#trip Family Travel Information Station The Hong Kong Museum of Coastal Defence is currently hosting an exhibition commemorating the 80th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The venue is small and rarely crowded. It displays approximately 40 precious artifacts from the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, along with approximately 150 historical photographs. Highlights include the exemplary silver rings awarded to meritorious personnel by the Zhongshan People's Anti-Japanese Volunteer Battalion in November 1944; "Understanding the All-Out War of Resistance" by the writer Guo Moruo; cloth badges and binoculars used by members of the Dongjiang Column; inaugural express telegrams from Zeng Sheng and Wang Zuoyao, commanders and deputy commanders of the Dongjiang Column, dated January 1, 1944; and members of the Hong Kong and Kowloon Independent Battalion of the Dongjiang Column. This is a great place for history enthusiasts to admire and take photos.

#Hong Kong #Victoria Peak #Wan Chai district #Hong Kong Coast Defence museum. We're back in Hong Kong again. Victoria Peak offers a stunning view of the entire city. Mid-Levels Escalator – the longest outdoor escalator in the world. Hong Kong's Manhattan – the skyscrapers of the Central District. This time we visited the Hong Kong Museum of Coastal Defence – a truly interesting and important place in Hong Kong, often overlooked by tourist guides. Address: 175 Tung Hei Road, Shau Kei Wan. It's located in the historic Lei Yue Mun Fort, which strategically guarded the eastern entrance to Victoria Harbour. Admission is very nominal (about 10 HKD for adults). Admission is free on Wednesdays. The museum is housed in a well-preserved 19th-century fort with real cannons, tunnels, and underground ammunition depots. The fort's walls offer panoramic views of the Lei Yue Mun Strait. It's ideal for those interested in history and military affairs, as well as those seeking a break from the bustling tourist areas.
