Art Museum · Best for art lovers & first-timers
Hong Kong's flagship art museum reopened in 2019 after a four-year, HK$930 million renovation that transformed its 1962 building on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. The expansion added gallery space, a new entrance lobby, and digital interactive features while preserving harbour views.
