2023 August 4.5★ It's FREE folks. While the story might be a little confusing, it's still done very nicely and puts in a mix mash of historical and iconic items about Hong Kong's history. Black and white outlines filled in with a projection overlay in most cases as it contrasts with them filling in the story and bringing certain elements to life. Very impressive. If your out of town, it's certainly worth checking out.

Came on the weekend. Relatively crowded but free entry so it’s understandable. Content is mostly about HK past and their culture. However, one thing I dislike is that there is no storyline. They are just presenting information to you in dots but there’s no lines to connect the dots. Friend says that the museum of history is just reading. Suggest you avoid if you don’t like to read and prefer interactive stuffs Unfortunately, the translations are very off. If you are bilingual, you will know. Suggest you read both the languages or google translate at least to see both sides of the story.

I was blown away to see that the exhibit on the history of Hong Kong was completely free. One of the best and most extensive exhibits I've seen. I spent several hours in the museum before realizing that if I wanted to get through it all I needed to stop trying to read all the excellent information provided. I ended up staying until closing time and returning the next day for a few more hours to finish seeing everything.

(Translated by Google) October 18, 2020 is the last day before the closing of the Hong Kong Museum of History for renovation. There are a lot of visitors in the museum on this day. I don’t think the permanent exhibition hall of the museum has been visited by so many people in more than ten years. Everyone carefully watched each exhibit and each introduction video. Everyone is constantly taking photos of different attractions in the museum, especially the scenery/exhibits in the early days of Hong Kong. Some people say that history is a story written for the victors. In the current political atmosphere, it is not surprising that the exhibition materials in the history museum will be overwritten or hidden by those in power this time. So everyone took this opportunity to visit the museum and take pictures, to make a record of how those in power will paint themselves. (Original) 2020年10月18日是香港歷史博物物館閉館大裝修前最後一日開放。 這一日館內遊人很多，我想十多年來博物館常設展館未試過這麽多人參觀。大家都仔細去睇每件展品，每段介绍影片。每個人都不斷為博物館內不同的景點拍照，特別是香港開埠初期的景物/展品。 有人說歷史是為勝利者而寫的故事。在現在的政治氣氛下，如歷史博物館內的展覽資料，會在今次機會被當權者改寫或隱藏，實在不令人意外。所以大家趁這個機會，來到博物館參觀拍照，為未來當權者為自己塗脂抹粉作一個記錄。

The museum is currently in renovation, which only provides a temporary exhibition of the “Hong Kong Story”. The exhibition contains a small areas of each period of the history of Hong Kong, from ancient time to after sovereign handover. The part of colonial history, Japanese occupation and the 60-70’s are pretty informative, with some of the “rebuilt” shops and houses to demonstrate that period of time.

I went to this museum several years ago. I would tell people it was the best historical museum I had been to—thoughtfully laid out and very comprehensive. No more. Although the main museum is presumably being renovated, it is clear from the temporary exhibits that Chinese propaganda is being infused. Words and ideas changed, history altered according to the new narrative. A shame. Hong Kong has a unique and varied history all its own, and now (according to one of the displays) has “rejoined the Motherland.” Yeah right.

This is a place worth your visit!!! It relate the whole story of Hongkong and there people. You will learn how Japan, China and England created that amazing country. Moreover the entrance fees are free on Wednesday, which is a great way to explore the museum. Believe me your eyes will surely be delighted.

(Translated by Google) The Hong Kong Museum of History is located at 100 Chatham Road South, Tsim Sha Tsui. It was built at a cost of HK$390 million and opened on September 28, 1998. The Hong Kong Museum of History introduces Hong Kong's history to Hong Kong residents and tourists. The exhibition covers archaeological discoveries, precious cultural relics and materials in Hong Kong and South China. It covers natural ecology, folk customs and historical development. It presents visitors to Hong Kong for over 400 million years. Natural ecological environment and historical stories. In addition to the permanent exhibitions, special exhibitions are held from time to time to introduce the stories of Hong Kong in the form of special topics. (Original) 香港歷史博物館位於尖沙咀漆咸道南 100 號，耗資 3 億 9 千萬港元興建，於 1998 年 9 月 28 日開放。香港歷史博物館為香港居民及遊客介紹香港的歷史，展覽內容包括香港及南中國一帶的考古發現、珍貴文物及資料等；涵蓋自然生態、民間風俗及歷史發展，向參觀者呈現香港四億年來的自然生態環境及歷史故事。除常設展覽外，館內亦不時舉辦專題展覽，以專題的形式介紹香港的故事。

I came when the museum is under renovation but still enjoyed my visit. My recommendation would be to drag your parents or grand parents so you can hear their stories growing up and enjoy your personal guided tour.

Went there on the 29th December 2023 and almost all of the exhibitions are still under renovation since 2020. The only two exhibitions there were the Chinese manned space exhibition and 95 years of public service broadcasting. Suggest to search the official webpage for more information before going to the museum to avoid any disappointments.

Great place to visit to learn about Hong Kong's culture and history. The exhibits are thorough and well arranged, and you could easily spend hours here (a minimum of 3!) if you're being thorough. They allow picture-taking which is nice and is free of charge. If you are interested and don't have much to do, this is a great place to visit for family and friends alike.

Probably one of the best museums I’ve visited in my life. There’s so much to cover here starting all the way before Hong Kong even had human inhabitants. There’s two sections on the geography and ecosystems of Hong Kong followed by one section on the inhabitants from the prehistoric era. The sections after that are dedicated to the modern times going from pre-colonial to colonial to Chinese rule. Overall the exhibits are exhaustive and well detailed. In addition to all this good stuff. It’s 100% free.

They currently only have the temporary exhibition available. It was decently interesting, but I felt very bothered by a security guard who kept following me and staring at me while I was trying to enjoy my time there.

Great history. Hard to navigate around you have to back track a little to see everything. Free entry which was great.

An interesting experience that tells of Hong Kong's history. There was also an exhibit on Jinyong's wuxia novels when I was here as well. I really appreciate the breadth of the type of works available on view and the exhibits seem well curated and thought out. Note: Visited prior to Covid, so things may be a little different.

underrated museum. as a foreigner, i learned a lot about hk's history. everything was clean and nicely displayed. highly recommend both local and foreigners to visit. museum is free and locates across from museum of science. youll takw about 2 hours to roam around

The Hong Kong History Museum is a museum that preserves Hong Kong's historical and cultural heritage. It is located next to the Hong Kong Science Museum, in Tsim Sha Tsui East, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The museum's collections include natural history, archaeology, ethnography and local history. Free entrance

Everything was fine and managed. But unfortunately there was no flow of the story in proper direction. They have audio guides for items but without any guided tour you will lose track of time.

The History Museum is close for renovation. Better check when its available for a visit. Really disappointed. Free Admission.

When we went there, they had two sections (Hong Kong history and something about Afghanistan). We only went to the Hong Kong exhibition. They guide you through the complete history of Hong Kong. Starting with the geological events that led to the landscape and ending with the modern day Hong Kong. It is explained really well and entertaining. For example, they build a small city displaying a Hong Kong in the early 20th century. The entrance is free and everything is in English as well.

Comprehensive exhibition trying to explain the phenomenon of modern Hong Kong. Starting fro. the geological processes, through nature we are observing development of humans. Archaeological sites, historical sites of power, ethnographic groups of hongkongers... On the first floor development of HK after 'British invasion' under 'occupation' and happy 'return to the Mainland'. You clearly can understand who paid for this exhibition... But overall really good.

One of the best and most informative museums I’ve been to. Highly recommended.

Took like 4 hrs to get through this free history that covers the entire period from the formation of the earth until about 2000. It left me curious to fill in more details. The descriptions were very well done and the artifacts were cool and the videos were good. It wasn’t crowded and it was a comfortable temperature.

(Translated by Google) From the formation of the ancient land, you can learn various things, including the culture and customs of about 30 years ago. There are English explanations, and you can enjoy just by looking at the exhibits. A few hours is not enough. I'm not tired of seeing it all day. Although there are some corners of the Japanese occupation era that are difficult for Japanese people to see, I recommend you to watch them without looking away. Admission is cheaper than that of Japan. (Original) 古代の土地の成り立ちから、30年くらい前までの文化、風習を含めいろんなことを知ることができます。英語解説がありますし、展示物を見るだけでも楽しめます。数時間では、足りません。一日見ても飽きません。 日本人には見るのがつらい日本軍占領時代のコーナーもありますが、目をそらさずに観ることを薦めます。 入館料は、日本のそれとは比べ物にならないくらい安いです。

(Translated by Google) There is no one in the epidemic now, it is a lot easier, and the air is also fresh (Original) 現在疫情沒什麼人，輕鬆很多，空氣也清新

The HONG KONG STORY permanent exhibit is top class and a great way to understand Hong Kong for both locals and visitors. Unfortunately it is closed for the next two years (till 2022?) for major makeover. Hope they tell the same true and genuine Hong Kong story as it had been.

A museum shows history of HK & tells details of it. This museum is free for everyone & opens for public now. If you wants to get known some more about HK you shouldn't miss this chance.

Very good museum, highly recommended! The staff is very welcoming and helpful. All the installations are in perfect state, it is very specious and nicely arrange museum. The permanent exhibition explains interesting facts about Hong Kong history you've probably never knew before. In terms of culture, it is a very enriching experience. Definitely worth it.

It's worth visiting to the current exhibition to learn about the OLD Hong Kong. Just a few photos to share with.

I've visited the Hong Kong Museum of history and I really liked this museum! It guided you from Hong Kong's ancient history all the way to modern times. Great place to visit to learn about Hong Kong's culture and history. The exhibits are thorough and well arranged, and you could easily spend hours here. And special thing is that It's free!

A great museum to spend around 3 hours to understand Hong Kong from the past until now. There are fantastic real sized models and setting to bring us into the time tunnel to see people living on the boats, near the sea, who celebrated main festivals. There are also very detailed descriptions on photos and replicas and real things about the wars, merchants, banks, currencies, etc. It's unbelievable that there is no entrance fee for this wonderful museum! It's open from Monday to Sunday except Tuesday is closed.

The best and most interesting museum of Hong Kong 😍

If you live history or if you are interested to old civilisation and Chinese culture so you must to visit this museum. Old objects, reproduction of old streets of Hong Kong, history of city, its historical architecture, main facts on its history witch made this city unique and so fascinating. It's a big museum so go early to enjoy all the exhibitions!

Really interesting to read about the formation and history of Hong Kong alongside items from the time and recreations. It wasn't too crowded and there was no queue to enter.

The museum has undergone a remarkable transformation since my last visit a few years ago. This time, I brought my kids along, and the best part is, it's free of charge now. The exhibits are not only captivating but also educational, providing insights into the rich history and culture of Hong Kong.

If you are a fan of Bruce Lee and/ or martial arts, you must go to museum. Well laid out, interactive and it is free. I hear they are getting rid of this museum to make a science museum which a big mistake. If you love HK, its people and culture or just curious ( or have kids) you want to go. Public transportation not really an option so cab it. You are not paying for admission so splurge. The pop culture exhibit which had film and music was fun !

A good place to pop in if you have nothing else to do. There hasn’t been much investment to make it interactive. A great location, opposite the Science Museum. Some interesting things to see, but nothing really to capture the interest.

The best thing with hongkong based museums are the effort made by the designers to recreate a piece of history. The permanent exhibits are so awesome that you feel yourselves time travelled to the past and got to witness some happenings of the past.

Love visiting the free 'Hong Kong Story' exhibit. There's 3 floors. I would highly recommend. It goes from the geographical forming of the country, to the cave men times through to the emperor rulings and the different types of Chinese clans who settled in Hong Kong, to the Opium war and Japanese occupation to current day Hong Kong.

The latest exhibitions of Afganistanan treasure is really something worthwhile to make a visit. The ivory panel, the sets of jewelry that was discovered from tombs were interesting to look at.

Excellent free museum. Very informative from geology to history. From neolithic to current politics.

Excellent, really informative, really well presented, worth the trip.

Good solo place to learn about HK history

First time been here , Know from 'Explore Hongkong' Instagram account will be closed temporary for 2years . We go here on last day 🥺☹

Nice place for a day trip . Very informative. Staffs are polite and very helpful. Will be equally loved by children and adults.

Amazing place, we went there and apparently it was free admission day. That was cool. Always great to learn about history, especially the history of this beautiful city, we’ve learned so much. The culture and history of Hong Kong is something I’ve always wanted to do I’m glad that we went there. Friendly staff, a lot of sitting areas. Highly recommended

(Translated by Google) You can visit here when you come to Hong Kong for the first time! The transportation is convenient and it introduces a lot of Hong Kong's history and culture! 👍 (Original) 初次來香港可以來這邊參觀！ 交通方便而且裡面介紹了許多香港的歷史與文化！👍

The best place to learn about the natural environment and history of Hong Kong. The museum is located next to the Science Museum. Admission to the permanent exhibition is free. Special exhibitions require additional tickets, which can be paid with an Octopus card. The service desk provides free luggage storage. It is recommended to store larger luggage and backpacks for comfortable viewing of the exhibition. The souvenir department sells diversified products, including postcards and stamps for collection. The permanent exhibition begins with an introduction to the geological history of Hong Kong, to the natural environment and flora and fauna of Hong Kong, prehistoric humans, historical development and historical sites after written records, development from the Qing Dynasty to modern times, and development after the return to China. In addition, there are displays of Hong Kong's humanities and folk culture, including ordinary people's life and economic development. There are many small movie theaters in the exhibition hall, with pronunciations in Chinese, Cantonese and English. The special exhibition I saw this time was the "Luxury Generation-From Assyria to Alexandria" hosted by the British Museum. The first stop was exhibited in Hong Kong. Tickets cost only HK$10. The exhibition venue provides timed guided tours and audio guides. The exhibits are mainly luxurious decorations from the British Museum's collection at that time. The commentary version has a lot of introduction information. There are also 3D interactive multimedia, which can flip specific exhibits at different angles or zoom in to appreciate them in more detail.

(Translated by Google) Visited in December 2019: You can walk from Hung Hom Station. There are plenty of exhibits and you can enjoy it a lot. Especially in the latter half of the exhibition route, the scale is big and I take pictures. It's great to have so much fun and free. If you think the museum is boring, please go there. You can check your baggage free of charge at the counter on the left. By the way, it is closed on Tuesday. (Original) 2019年12月訪問　紅磡駅から歩いて行けます。展示物豊富でかなり楽しめます。特に展示ルート後半はスケールも大きく見応えあって写真撮りまくりです。こんなに楽しめて無料とは素晴らしい。博物館なんてつまらないと思う人も是非行ってみてください。入って左のカウンターで手荷物無料で預かってもらえます。因みに火曜日はお休みです。

Starting from October 19th, 2020, the exhibition hall here will be repaired and updated for two years. It will not reopen until October 19, 2022. Before that, Hong Kong people liked this museum very much, Before this exhibition hall was repaired, the exhibition here was very interesting, but the introduction of the exhibition in Hong Kong in the middle and late period was not too detailed. Some parts of the exhibition hall showed the old streets and shops of Hong Kong,but after 2020, CCP decided to make it. False history continues to deceive the world. Hong Kong was once a British colony and a member of the Commonwealth. Hong Kong’s success was established by the leadership of the British and the efforts of the Hong Kong people.Since Hong Kong was invaded by CCP, Hong Kong’s glorious history in the British colony period was erased by CCP.In the future, the exhibition hall will be reopened. The content of the exhibition inside may be false. As a Hong Kong person, I feel that the Hong Kong race is being destroyed.

The Hong Kong Museum of History is a museum that preserves Hong Kong's historical and cultural heritage. It is located next to the Hong Kong Science Museum, in Tsim Sha Tsui East, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The museum was established by the Urban Council in July 1975 when the City Museum and Art Gallery was split into the Hong Kong Museum of History and Hong Kong Museum of Art; some of the Museum of History's collections were on display at the City Museum and Art Gallery's original 1962 location at the City Hall. From 1975 to 1983, the Hong Kong Museum of History was housed in a 700 m2 rented space within Star House. In 1983, the Museum was moved to a temporary location (which now houses Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre) in Kowloon Park. It was moved to its present premises near Hong Kong Science Museum on Chatham Road South, Tsim Sha Tsui in 1998. It is currently managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department of Hong Kong Government.

無料なのにしっかりと歴史的な展示物を観ることが出来て勉強になります。中国返還後のコーナーが急に豪華で印象操作してる感じが強いので、嫌悪感を覚えました。。。

位於尖沙咀，有香港相關故事展示

現在香港歷史博物館維修中， 要兩年的時間才完工， 現在只是一點迷你展品區， 而且食 店也關門， 不過現在是免費觀看的， 如果剛經過也可以看一看究香港的照片， 還有一個特價 購書報， 紙幾十元一本舊書， 喜歡與否見仁見智， 特別要提一提網上的開門時間是不準確的 敬請致電確實 尤其是想去科學館那邊更加不準確 因我已去兩次 也是關門

Great for a wet day or to beat the heat on warmer day, Hong Kong's history museum is a great place to spend a couple of hours and take in the history of this region. You'll see Hong Kong from the ancient past, through colonial days and at the time of the hand over. About HK$10, or you can buy a multi museum pass and I believe they also have a weekly free entry day as well. For history buffs and fans of museums this is a good place to visit.

All paperwork expo...nothing original. Not actually open. Lost time

(Translated by Google) A more suitable place for elementary school students or tourists. (Original) 小學生或是遊客比較合適的參觀點。

The permanent exhibition ‘The Hong Kong Story’ is very interesting. I've been twice here but I can still learn a lot from the display.

Real exhibits + drawing/ painting,... not great but still interesting.

Free exhibition plus plenty of space

before the current renovations, it was a remarkable experience, the museum inside felt like going back in time, plus the security lady I met there was foreigner friendly. Would definitely recommend visiting again if the service was always this good! A fine example of good HK tourism service.

NOT GOOD... BORING ..THE OLD HISTORY MUSEUM IS MUCH MUCH BETTER...

Interesting to learn more about traditional Chinese culture and rituals. Some of the items displayed brings back memories of yesteryear. Good place for foreigners to visit to learn more about the significance of old HK ceremonies.

It is a small exhibit of HK history.. not a Museum.. rather boring. There security guards everywhere. There can't touch the exhibit that in middle of room even there is no security barrier surrounding. Thankfully it's free.

The new exhibit (2022) is still temporary. However the story of Hong Kong no longer suggest that it ended with 1997. I look forward to seeing the upgrades; the first 25 years of the handover and even the projections of the future of Hong Kong in the GBA and in China.

This review is based on my visit a few years back. I have been to quite a few history museums in different countries, and the Hong Kong museum is by far the most boring of the lot... There are a total of 8 exhibits about Hong Kong's History, and about 3 to 4 of the exhibits are just talking about ROCKS! ROCKS AND PEBBLES THAT CAN BE FOUND IN HONG KONG IN THE PAST 10000000000YEARS..... The other 4 exhibits are more interesting where they feature houses of old Hong kong, cultures, diplomats stuff etc. All of these are far more interesting than ROCKS AND PEBBLES. So, if you have time to spend or if you have a deep fond love for ROCKS, you can come to the hong kong museum of history. If not, you can fast forward to exhibit 4-8 where there are no ROCKS involved. based on other reviewers' comments, seems like there is maintenance project for this museum. Hope the museum will come back with more interesting exhibits other than ROCKS.

If you are someone who love history, this place is worth the visit. It’s very educational and it’s free. You will easily spend a minimum of 3 hrs here to learn about The Hong Kong Story. This museums is huge and it covers the history of geological to the habitats, the folk culture, the Opium Wars and the Japanese Occupation to name the few. They also have a few Theatre/Video Shows in Chinese, Cantonese and English and my favourite are ’From Trade to War’ and The Japanese Occupations - ‘Three Years and Eight Months’. If you have the time, come visit here. Children will love it too.

A museum about Hong Kong history. Some information of last century served for those in power. Be wise and clever, get the truth from diversive angle.

The updated Hong Kong Story still has lots of see. Good for older children. Younger children (my kids aged 1 and 3) may not enjoy too much as exhibits mostly not allowed to touch or sit on.

Good place to learn about the fascinating history of Hong Kong free of charge. Can see lots of items bearing witness to various periods of significance for the city.

The exhibition is detailed and has some great videos detailing traditional dances, new clips from different times, and interviews.

Nice place to learn about Hong Kongs history and free to enter with Science Musuem also nearby.

It’s really interesting to visit HongKong Museum of History. It’s touch my heart when watching the documentary film of the traditional ceremony and the war. You can also immerse in the memorial scenes of Hongkongers, also a nearby country’s residents that had seen so many TVB films. I saw there were some old Hongkongers walking around and reminiscing the old days. It was a beautiful moment. —- Also, the ticket is free for the permanent exhibition.

It's nice but too small. I think it is being renovated currently so I will go back in the future once all the renovations are complete.

The exhibition is worth a visit if you want to learn about the history of Hong Kong. It is free. However, it is quite disappointing that they currently only have the simplified version. I was told the renovations will take another year or two. They also have daily tours (in Cantonese) where volunteers give a more in depth explaination of the exhibition. The sign up was quick and easy, I just needed to go to the front desk and get a ticket. There are also tours in Mandarin and English, but it seems to only be provided on the weekends.

A bit crowded and the staff are pretty grumpy. Besides that it's a pretty unremarkable museum.

A great way to learn more about HK’s history and culture. Not just its past, but also its present and its future.
