Each of the 18 districts in Hong Kong has a distinct history and culture, and they have been ever-changing as the community has developed over time. The multifaceted people and things have left behind a characteristic and valuable cultural heritage for their districts and enriched the dimensions of the "Hong Kong Story". The densely populated Yau Tsim Mong District is the most prosperous region of Kowloon and the most diverse district in the whole of Hong Kong. Walking through the streets and alleys of the district, people can see a cityscape blending old and the new and learn about the development sequence of Kowloon and Hong Kong as a whole. The exhibition features approximately 200 exhibits, which introduce the development of Yau Tsim Mong District from the early 19th century to the present, inviting the audience to explore the historical traces behind the bustling urban scene.
