The exhibition runs until May 5th and will move to the Hong Kong Heritage Museum on May 8th to continue until October 7th.
To enrich the audience's experience, the 'Both Literary and Martial Arts' series also includes the 'Literary Songs and Martial Music Concert'. Veteran musician Au Sui Keung will perform many popular martial arts drama theme songs and his classic hits live. Each concert will also feature performances by young singer Au Hing Chun and a special guest. Additionally, there will be a song request segment, allowing the audience to revisit their favorite tunes.
Edible Flowers and Herbs Exhibition at Hong Kong Park
The Leisure and Cultural Services Department will hold an Edible Flowers and Herbs Exhibition at the Forsgate Conservatory in Hong Kong Park from April 22 (Monday), allowing citizens to closely appreciate the beauty of various edible flowers and herbs of the spring season.
Hong Kong's spring climate is mild with gradually lengthening daylight hours, which is suitable for the growth of different types of edible flowers and herbs. This themed exhibition displays more than 500 plants of different forms of spring edible flowers and herbs, including fragrant marigolds, dwarf hibiscus, dryland lotus, borage, calendula, and a variety of herbs, etc.
The flowers and leaves of fragrant marigolds have a rich aroma and are all edible. The tender leaves can be used for tea brewing and cooking, and planting them in a herb garden is most appropriate.
The light pink flowers of the dwarf hibiscus are small and exquisite, and although they only last for a short day, they bloom continuously.
The flowers, leaves, and rhizomes of the dryland lotus (also known as golden lotus) are all edible, with a taste as sweet and slightly spicy as mustard, and a crisp and juicy texture, also with a unique scent.
As for herbs, the humid spring is particularly suitable for the growth of mint family plants. Common types include green mint (also known as spearmint), peppermint, grapefruit mint, etc.
In addition to displaying more than 30 types of spring edible flowers and herbs, the exhibition also sets up panels to introduce their characteristics, planting tips, and propagation methods. The exhibition will be held from April 22 to June 10, open daily from 9 am to 5 pm at the Forsgate Conservatory, 19 Cotton Tree Drive, Central, Hong Kong Park. Admission is free, and the public is welcome to visit.
Hong Kong Space Museum presents the new 3D dome film 'Polar Extremes 3D'.
Starting from April 1st (Monday), the Hong Kong Space Museum's Stanley Ho Space Theatre will be screening the new 3D dome film 'Polar Extremes 3D', taking audiences on an exploration of Antarctica.
Antarctica is the coldest, driest, and windiest place on Earth. 'Polar Extremes 3D' will lead audiences deep into the Antarctic animal world, starting with a dive beneath the ice into a vibrant underwater world, then returning to the surface to join a large penguin colony, and finally enjoying what may be the most whales ever seen on screen. Whales play a key role in mitigating climate change, and the film not only provides a visual spectacle for viewers but also helps them understand the impact of human overhunting of whales on climate change. With global temperatures rising, the film prompts humans to reflect and take action to protect the Antarctic ecosystem, to prevent climate change from disrupting its balance and further affecting the whole world.
The program is 24 minutes long and will be shown until January 13, 2025. Screening times are 2:00 PM and 6:30 PM on weekdays; and 12:30 PM and 5:00 PM on weekends and public holidays. Ticket prices are 24 HKD (front seats) and 32 HKD (back seats). Tickets are now available at the Hong Kong Space Museum Box Office and URBTIX.
The Hong Kong Space Museum is located at 10 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, and is closed on Tuesdays (except public holidays).

Weekend spent in Glenelg
Glenelg is located in adelaode and is one of the most visited beach in adelaide.
- Glenelg Breach Broadwalk
- Hallet Cove
- Sugar Loaf Trial
Oaks Glenelg plaza pier suites is located right smack in the marina. That was where we had a nice stay overlooking the ocean with magnificent sunset view. Male sure you get the room with the ocean view.
We did 2 walks which is a short drive no more than 30mins from glenrlg. Hallet Cove where its popular among locals for wedding shots due to the backdrop of stones and the colour change in the midst of sunset making it a very romantic.
There are also several trial walks there and 1 specifically was the sugarloaf. It is a simple broadwalk with steps and gradual upslope with an approx route of 1.6-1.8km return.
You will be able to see the unique formation of the rocks which resembles hills of sugar around the broadwalk. Oh yes ants is abundance there but it isn't sugar of course!
Lastly at the lookout area at the top of thr hill, you could head down and climb onto the unique looking shape and coloured rocks for a quick photo.
This was a weekend well spent in glenelg.

- St Kilda Beach
- Mt Danedong @skyhigh Restaurant
A weekend well spent in melbourne.
Started the day early by heading to South melbourne Market. Filled with local arts and crafts, groceries loke fresh fruits, seafood and premium meat cuts, bakeries, coffee rosters and loads of food! Be sure to to there on an empty stomach because there is so much food there that you won't be able to try esch and every stall there.
Thereafter we head to St Kilda beach for the Sunday esplanade Market where there are also local arts and crafts and a slow walk by the beach enjoy the breeze. Several cafes there with great lookout into the ocean.
Lastly we ended our day with a quick drive up Mt danedong to catch the sunset. Do make sure you route to sky-high and not bourke lookout. When reaching sky-high restaurant, each car is required to pay 8AUD eventhough the attractions in Mt danedong is closed and only there for the sunset. It is now privately owned. If you do want to save cost you could park down below which takes about a good 10/15min walk up.
Be there early as there will be alot of people up there and it can also get rather chilly and windy up there.

Somewhere in the Great Himalaya Trail!
Somewhere in the Great Himalaya Trail. Somewhere in the middle of this huge valley between Annapurna South (7,219m), Hiunchuli (6,441m) & Machhapuchhare (6,993m). Somewhere close to the clouds & the sky. Somewhere far from all the chaos, far from the necropolis. Somewhere that still possesses the vivid memories of impermanence.
