About 香港大學美術博物館

The University Museum and Art Gallery (UMAG) of The University of Hong Kong was founded in 1953 as the Fung Ping Shan Museum. Originally established as the Fung Ping Shan Library of Chinese language publications in 1932, the building became a museum after the University's libraries consolidated. UMAG is the oldest continuously operated museum in Hong Kong and over the past sixty years it has built up a diverse collection of ceramics and bronzes, as well as traditional and modern paintings. In addition, UMAG regularly hosts exhibitions of contemporary and ancient Chinese and Western art.

香港大學美術博物館原稱為馮平山博物館,創立於一九五三年,前身原為香港大學馮平山圖書館。過去六十年來,作為香港現存歷史最悠久的博物館,博物館庋藏許多中國文物與藝術品,其中青銅與陶瓷館藏可由清代上溯至新石器時代,而書畫館藏則介於明代與二十一世紀之間。除展出館藏外,博物館也經常舉辦古今中外各類藝術展覽。

Mid-Levels is part of the Central and Western District on Hong Kong Island. The island is steep, with many streets climbing the hillside; the Central–Mid-Levels escalator links Central with the Mid-Levels and the Peak Tram runs up to The Peak. Offices, malls and old neighbourhood shops sit side by side, restaurants are packed at the office lunch hour (roughly 13:00–14:00), and with parking scarce the MTR, tram or bus is usually easier than driving. Octopus works on the MTR, buses, minibuses, ferries and trams; heading to Mid-Levels, check the street map inside the MTR station to find the nearest exit.

The HKU museum is not big but always has wonderful exhibitions. No entrance fee is needed.

Interesting exhibition with good story telling. When I visited, the paper cutting exhibition was so impressive. No entrance fee but you can support via donation box.

free entrance often neglected by the hordes of mainlanders swarming the campus during weekends and long holidays . Cool and quiet thanks to their collective absence. Impressing permanent collection of antique Chinese pottery woodwork and metal art. French jewelry exhibition at the moment

The museum is within 15 minutes walking distance from Sai Ying Pun MTR station. But it could be difficult for the disabled wheelchair travelling up from the MTR station to the museum in Bonham Road. You can get a minibus from the bus terminal beneath Exchange Square and it will provide direct drop off to the Musuem in the HKU East Gate. The museum is in a well conserved heritage building. I loved the tranquil environment with adequate clear directory for the exhibited antiques in the museum. Highly recommended if you look for alternative places to visit after endless shopping in Hong Kong.

One of the Le French May 2022 photo exhibition of Chun Wai held in this beautiful avenue - the gallery in this antique building was always a nice place to visit. Its tranquility alone was somewhat an attraction. An the university was celebrating its 111th anniversary, there was more happening and things to explore in the HKU campus.
