Overview

The Hong Kong Palace Museum presents hundreds of treasures from the Palace Museum. Many of them are on display in Hong Kong for the first time, while others have never been shown to the public before. The Museum regularly presents special exhibitions featuring Chinese art and culture, as well as art and treasures from other parts of the world. Special Exhibition Gallery 8: “Treasures of Global Jewellery from The Metropolitan Museum of Art: The Body Transformed” (15 April - 19 October 2026) The first major showcase in Hong Kong of global jewellery from five continents made over the course of nearly 4,000 years between the second millennium BCE and the 21st century. The exhibition marks The Met’s debut in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area. With approximately 200 spectacular treasures from The Met along with selected objects from the HKPM collection, the close relationship between body and jewellery will be explored. The masterpieces will display the depth and breadth of the encyclopedic collection of this world-renowned museum and illustrate the diversity and interconnectedness of global jewellery. Gallery 9 - Special Exhibition "Ancient Egypt Unveiled —Treasures from Egyptian Museums” (20 November 2025 – 31 August 2026) The largest, most comprehensive, and longest-running display of ancient Egyptian treasures in Hong Kong.
