HONG KONG - The Land of Museums

There is actually more to Hongkong than just shopping and parks.  HK is a country rich in tradition and culture;  And I should say by the number of HK's museums (based on Wikipedia they have about forty-nine (49) museums total to date), they are trully proud of their heritage.  They have museums for just about anything.

Take a break from your busy shopping schedule and drop by any of HK's treasured museums.

Click on the link for the complete list of  HK Museums, from Wikipedia. 

I was fortunate to visit about five (5).

Tsim Sha Tsui
Hong Kong Museum of Art 
Hong Kong Space Museum
Hong Kong Science Museum
Hong Kong Museum of History

The Peak
Hong Kong Police Museum
Madame Tussaud Wax Museum


If you are touring with kids,  the Hong Kong Science Museum is a must.  It has numerous interactive exhibits that your kids are sure to enjoy.  For teens and adults, the Hong Kong Museum of Art and Madame Tussaud (depending on your interests should keep you occupied, although the latter was more fun for my husband - getting to pose with wax figures of famous personalities).
