Exploring Ancient Egypt at the Palace Museum!

The main character of this trip is the Hong Kong Palace Museum, which recently opened an exhibition of ancient Egyptian artifacts. The museum is located at 8 Museum Road, Kowloon West Cultural District. Once you enter the lobby of the exhibition hall, you can already feel the mysterious atmosphere. If you pay close attention, visitors can't help but raise their mobile phones and cameras to take pictures of the mummy coffin! I was part of it, the atmosphere was harmonious, and everyone was attracted by the shock of traveling through time. The coffin is exquisite in appearance, and the carving patterns and colors are well preserved. Standing in front of the wreckage, I can't help but feel the great craftsmanship of ancient Egypt. In addition to the coffin, the exhibition also features other artifacts, including statues, jewelry and ancient Egyptian living utensils, each exhibit has a detailed display board explaining the background, so you can watch and learn slowly. The pavilion has a strong sense of space, elegant design, not crowded, extremely comfortable to take pictures and enjoy. If you are interested in ancient civilization, I sincerely recommend it to you. You can make an appointment with your friends to experience the cross-cultural exchange. There is also West Kowloon Art Park outside the museum. If you have enough time, you can take a walk and feel the fusion of art and nature. During your stay, guided tours will be given from time to time. To learn more about the story behind the artifacts, you can keep a close eye on the official information of the museum. My personal feeling is that knowledge and sensory experience go hand in hand, not only seeing the exhibition, but also growing a lot of cultural knowledge. #Hong Kong Palace Museum #Ancient Egypt Exhibition #Mummy Scene #Exhibition Photo #West Kowloon Cultural District

Art, Architecture and Harbor Vibes at Hong Kong 🎨🏙️ 📍Set aside half a day to soak up Hong Kong’s creative heart at the West Kowloon Cultural District. Kick off at the Hong Kong Palace Museum - an elegant blend of imperial treasures and sleek spaces. Wander halls where each artifact is spotlit with creative lighting and uncluttered design; it’s a visual feast that feels both grand and intimate. Must-do: the rooftop terrace for panoramic Victoria Harbor views, where Hong Kong’s skyline glitters across the water—especially Insta-worthy if you catch a sunny day (think close-up shots of modern architecture against shifting skies). 📍Next, stroll to M+. Asia’s hot spot for contemporary art, with striking exhibitions and futuristic lines. Save energy for the Art Park: locals flock here to picnic, cycle, and enjoy live performances under the trees. The waterfront is perfect for people-watching, sunset shots, and capturing breezy, relaxed moments. You might spot dog walkers and campers, adding authentic community color. 💡Essential Tips: - Arrive early to beat museum crowds and enjoy cool harbor air. - Museum opening times vary, so check ahead (e.g., Palace Museum closed Tuesday, M+ closed Monday). - Wear comfy shoes: the district is spacious, and there’s lots to see. - Rain rolls in quickly—an umbrella helps, but for moody photos, some cloud cover can actually work magic! #hellochristmas #HongKong #WestKowloon #CulturalDistrict #CityViews #ArtAndArchitecture
