📍Location: Quarry Bay Park, Hong Kong 🏖️Environment/Facilities: Retired Fireboat Alexander Grantham 💰Cost: Free 💞Recommended Reason: The only fireboat exhibition in Hong Kong As a native Hong Konger, I have a certain affection for items from the British colonial era. Docked at Quarry Bay Park near Taikoo Shing Mall is a retired fireboat, which is well-preserved. Visitors can explore both the interior and the underside of the boat. During my visit, I discovered that there are free guided tours available, with retired firefighters explaining the exhibits and history, providing a deeper understanding of Hong Kong's firefighting history. It's very educational.

The exhibition hall is located in Quarry Bay Park. A retired fireboat, the Alexander Grantham, is displayed in the outdoor exhibition area, about ten minutes' walk from Taikoo Shing Shopping Centre. The Alexander Grantham was once the main marine fireboat of the Hong Kong Fire Services Department and participated in many firefighting and marine rescue operations. The exhibition hall displays information and knowledge about maritime rescue in the past. At designated times every day, guides will introduce the work of the firefighters serving at the time and the structure/history of the ships. Admission is free and there is no time limit, so you can take your time to visit and take photos.

Summer vacation is so hot, with children, visit museums and the like is best, can broaden your knowledge and learn knowledge other than books This time I chose to visit the Fire Extinguisher at the Ge Liang Hung, which has one more bridge in Quarry Bay Park. It takes a while to walk from Pacific Station via the shopping mall, but you can walk towards the seaside, 15 minutes away This fire extinguishing wheel has been decommissioned and made into an exhibition hall without a fee. Looking at the fire-fighting work at sea in those days, it was really heroic. There is not much access to the fire wheel to visit, so this exhibition hall is full of historical value. After visiting the fire wheel, you can also enjoy the view of the Victoria Harbor. There are not many people along the way, and there are many wooden benches. It is much cleaner and more comfortable than the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. If the kids are noisy and want to play, they can walk back to Quarry Bay Park and play

The Grantham Fireboat Exhibition Hall is located in the Eastern District of Hong Kong Island, about a 10-15 minute walk from Tai Koo MTR Station. You can enjoy the view of Victoria Harbour along the seaside park and board the fireboat to experience the arduous task of firefighting at that time. Children can also take photos and relive the historical missions of the fireboats in the past. 10 points recommendation. #Local Tour

I visited Taikoo Shing earlier, and of course I visited the nearby Fireboat Alexander Grantham Exhibition Hall! The "Alexander Grantham" is indeed of great historical significance and worth visiting. Both adults and children will gain knowledge. I admired different firefighting relics and gained a deeper understanding of Hong Kong's maritime rescue work!

People may have seen more firefighting on land, but rarely have the chance to come into contact with firefighting at sea. This museum displays objects and history of firefighting at sea. The most attractive one is a retired fireboat for visitors to board and experience the actual firefighting at sea. #Hong Kong Good Places #LocalTours#A quick guide to good places to go with kids#Exhibitions where you can take great photos#Good places to go with kids#Good places to go in Hong Kong#Good places to go in the hot summer

A hands-on experience at the Fireboat Alexander Grantham Exhibition Hall! This place gave me a thrilling firefighting trip! 🔥🚒 The Fireboat Alexander Grantham Exhibition Hall is a museum dedicated to the history and culture of firefighting. When I stepped into the hall, I immediately felt the bravery and professional skills of the firefighting heroes. Various firefighting equipment, models and real objects of the Grantham fireboat, as well as the stories and achievements of firefighters are displayed here. 🔥🚒💪 I visited various exhibitions in the museum, and each one made me understand more about the importance and challenges of firefighting. I saw firefighting equipment from different periods and regions, from traditional buckets to modern fire extinguishers, which demonstrated the advancement of technology and the evolution of firefighting and disaster prevention. There are also films and photos showing the brave actions and rescue missions of firefighters, which makes me respect their hard work and dedication. 🎥🚒👨‍🚒 The most exciting thing is the interactive area in the museum. There is a simulated fire-fighting training ground here where I can put on firefighting clothing, pick up a fire extinguisher, and experience the process and techniques of fire-fighting firsthand. This made me feel the pressure and challenges that firefighters face in a fire scene, and it also made me understand the importance of fire safety and self-protection. 🔥👩‍🚒💦 #Grantham Fireboat Exhibition Hall #Fire Exhibition #History and Culture #Safety Education #Fire Fighting #Greater Bay Area Attractions

The Fire Extinguishing Wheel Exhibition Hall of HMS Ge Lianghong I had been wanting to visit for a long time, seeing that my husband was on holiday on Wednesday, so I had to catch him and visit with me. Transportation Guide - Although looking at the map this exhibition hall is closer to Pacific City. But I still. It is recommended that you walk along the waterfront promenade from, the park opposite the Hong Kong Funeral Home. Because you can enjoy, the beautiful scenery along the way, and feel the fresh feeling of the sea breeze, in my foot distance, only walked 50 minutes. Local Sights - A visit to this pavilion is meaningful to learn about the historical origin of this fire wheel. While watching their short introductions in different languages. Hotel - Warm reminder There are no washrooms in the exhibition hall, you have to go to the public toilets in the park, which are very clean and hygienic. Toilet paper and soap are provided. Food and Restaurants - Recently I have to walk 20 minutes to the restaurants in City Plaza. It is recommended that you bring a small amount of food and drinks and sit on a park bench in the park near the exhibition hall and eat while enjoying the sea view. The environment is quiet and quiet. On Wednesday, January 11, 2023, I didn’t need to make an appointment, I just walked there by myself. Free admission. Nearby shopping malls -- #Pacific City

The Fire Extinguishing Wheel Exhibition Hall of HMS Ge Lianghong ➡️ This exhibition hall is closer to City Plaza Transportation Strategy - Choosing transportation can also have a variety of options. 1⃣️ Since it is close to City Plaza, you can choose to walk from City Plaza, about 20 minutes. 2⃣️ You can take a car to Hong Kong to find a funeral home, and then walk to about 50 minutes from that place Local Sights - Personally recommend walking across from the funeral home, with scenic waterfront promenade along the way. Food and Drinks - The nearest place to eat is to go to Pacific City. You can also bring your own small amounts of food and drinks and eat at the nearby park. Shopping Guide - This is an exhibition hall, not a shopping place, so there are nothing to buy. It also does not offer any finery about the pavilion for sale, purely for visits. Toilets can be found in the public toilets in the park near the exhibition hall. The hygiene situation can also have toilet paper and soap supply, the floor is not wet. We are still worried about being able to walk to City Plaza, the washrooms inside. #Golden Hong Fire Extinguishing Wheel Exhibition Hall

Today I recommend this exhibition hall, free visit frame, about the workshop, want to participate friends, remember to make an appointment, draw lot frame, I have to attend the workshop at the beginning and middle of the year, 2 times did not win, very full. I don't know if you are interested in participating. Because this workshop allows you to learn different fire-fighting knowledge. It really makes sense. Before boarding the ship 🚢, you have seen a brief introduction to the history of this 🚢, there are different exhibition items, of course, this is all introducing the equipment, supplies, tools, instruments, and firefighters' uniforms, ranks. Not to mention, to the exhibition, to know the fire extinguishing 🚢 ship, many things are preparation, sea fire extinguishing, observation instruments, etc., indispensable. #NatureBeauty #Decembervlog #HongKongGood Places #LocalTravel #FamilyGood Places
