The Peak is part of the Central and Western District on Hong Kong Island. The north shore of Hong Kong Island is one of the densest business areas in the city: the MTR Island Line runs from Kennedy Town to Chai Wan, the trams ("ding dings") between Kennedy Town and Shau Kei Wan, and many businesses trade from upper floors of office blocks and older tenement buildings. The south side is known for beaches, trails and fishing harbours such as Repulse Bay, Stanley and the Aberdeen typhoon shelter, which get busy at weekends and on public holidays. The Peak is reached by the Peak Tram or by bus; its lookouts draw big crowds on holidays.

The Police Museum feels genuinely thoughtful and well put together. It’s clear that a lot of effort has gone into creating plenty of photo spots, making it a fun place to take pictures. The whole venue is kept very clean, and the facilities are new and well maintained, which makes the visit comfortable and pleasant. Although the museum is relatively small, the interior is surprisingly rich in content. There is a good variety of exhibits, and it doesn’t feel sparse at all. In fact, you can easily spend a decent amount of time exploring everything. There are also interactive games, which add an extra layer of enjoyment and make the experience more engaging, especially for families or younger visitors. The staff are polite and welcoming, which adds to the overall positive impression. Even the toilets are clean, which is always appreciated. Best of all, admission is free, making it well worth a visit. Overall, despite its modest size, the museum offers a rewarding and enjoyable experience that is definitely worth checking out.

If you are already hiking around the area, this would be a nice rest stop with great air conditioning

The Hong Kong Police Museum is located on Coombe Road in the Wan Chai Gap area of the Peak. This is a focused speciality museum, which suitably makes use of the old Wan Chai Gap Police Station. Entrance is free to the public. The museum is curated pretty well, display items are a nice range and include English text for explanation. The galleries cover the storied history of the Hong Kong Police Force well and provide a good half an hour of learning opportunity for those with interest.

Its a small museum so dont expect to be there for long. There's also lots of stairs to enter the building and you'll need to book online. I enjoyed this as they talked about the history of HK police.

Opening hours are 9am to 5pm (Tues to Sun), the museum is closed on Mondays. Entrance is free to the public. Not the easiest museum to access but an interesting place to spend half an hour if you have hiked to this location by way of the Wan Chai Gap (Green Trail) from the north or up the Aberdeen Country Park trails from the south. What you will find are 5 exhibition galleries with over 1200 items and photographs on display. The museum is curated pretty well, display items are a nice range and include English text for explanation.
