From one generation to the next, those great museums are the jewels that decorated the harbor; and entertained people educationally.
I visited the Hong Kong Space Museum this afternoon. It attracts intellectually curious mindsets and evokes people's imagination. From toddlers to seniors, people of all ages came to learn about our beautiful planet and mysterious universe.
In the exhibition hall upstairs, there are introductions of some natural phenomena such as light, water flow, weather patterns, and spaceships with images; there are lots of experiments and enriched educational content.
In the hall downstairs, there is the galaxy exploration section, introducing stars in the galaxy with beautiful pictures and dazzling light. I like a set of questions posted on the wall to provoke our deep thoughts about our natural world, expanding our cognitive bandwidth and stimulating wilder imagination of the natural world and beyond.
I didn’t get the chance to see 3D movies there as the tickets were sold out that afternoon. It’s a great museum; I wish there were expanded sections for stimulating our imagination; more interactive experiments to entertain us, there are alien robots to cheer us up when I visit it next time.
I also visited the art museum again nearby the other day. It mixed the Eastern styles of antique painting and calligraphy, with Western styles of oil painting, and sculptures. When we appreciate the art, we can also look out of the window and view the beautiful scenes of the Pacific Ocean.
The water flows forward endlessly; people come and go dynamically. From one generation to the next, those great museums are the jewels that decorate the harbor; and entertain people educationally. They are the condensed versions of human history. Science, art, and anthropology open our minds to discover the unknown, challenge conventional wisdom, and keep learning and growing with fewer limitations.
