Hong Kong Space Museum
You may recognise the rather unusual egg-shaped building that has become a landmark on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. This striking dome is home to the Hong Kong Space Museum.
The city’s popular planetarium is made up of the Stanley Ho Space Theatre, the Hall of the Cosmos, and the Hall of Space Exploration. There is plenty of action and toys for wannabe space explorers and closet geeks, such as the Omnimax and sky shows, astronomy exhibits, digital planetarium projector, and seats installed with multi-language and interactive systems.
