Located at the heart of Sham Shui Po, Mei Ho House is a Grade II Historical Building which marked the beginning of the city’s public housing policies and has a profound historical significance for the community. Its privately-run, public housing-themed museum has always been a popular attraction for locals and visitors of all ages.

The new exhibition takes visitors back to the past with ten brand-new installations and immersive interactive experiences that bring scenes of the grassroots lifestyles in the 1950s and 60s back to life. It builds a bridge of communication for visitors to learn more about the history and livelihoods of their forebears, the neighbourly perseverance of the communities, and the underlying spirit that shaped the Hong Kong of today.
