This is one of 6 museums run by the HK Gov't. Located at the old Lei Yue Mun Fort, it has pretty decent exhbits and a historical trail that leads down to the Lei Yue Mun Channel at the East end of Victoria Harbour. Worth a visit.

Entrance to the museum. 15 minutes walk from Shau Kei Wan MTR, or by Bus #85.

An elevator took one up to the fort level.

The nice outdoor setting is perfect for family outing.

Or a date.
