Hong Kong Museum Of Art, The Art History Of Hong Kong And The Rest Of The World

The Hong Kong Museum of Art is located at 10 Salisbury Road, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong and is a museum dedicated towards the Chinese Cultural Heritage. The museum is also caters for both international as well as local art in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Museum of Art was at first formed in 1962 by the Urban Council as the City Hall Museum and Art Gallery and was located at the City Hall, which lies in Central. Later in 1991, the Hong Kong Museum of Art was shifted to its current location, 10 Salisbury Road, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong. The present location lies near the Hong Kong Space Museum and the Hong Kong Cultural Centre in Tsim Sha Tsui.

The Hong Kong Museum of Art is run by the Hong Kong Government. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department of the Hong Kong Government is responsible for the management of the Hong Kong Museum of Art. The Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware, located in the Hong Kong Park is a branch of the Hong Kong Museum of Art.

The Hong Kong Museum of Art has a frequent rotation of displays, much of eh exhibits include sculpture, calligraphy and paintings mainly from Hong Kong and China but also from the rest of the world.

After a good and maybe even a tiring day spent at the museum a splendid idea would be to head off to a Hong Kong Spa for some relaxation. One good Spa in Hong Kong is the Chuan Spa Hong Kong.
