Hong Kong Hotspots | West Kowloon Cultural District | Embracing the Moment of Bubbles Day and Night.
On the second afternoon of the Easter holiday, we went to the West Kowloon Cultural District.
The giant art installation 'Embracing the Moment of Bubbles' on the eastern side of the West Kowloon Cultural District's waterfront lawn is one of the recent hotspots for photo opportunities.
'Embracing the Moment of Bubbles' is one of the activities of the West Kowloon FUN Art Festival.
The giant 'bubbles' reach up to 9 meters high and are on display at the West Kowloon waterfront from now until April 7th.
'Embracing the Moment of Bubbles' was created by the Australian Sydney art team Atelier Sisu and has been exhibited in cities such as Sydney, London, Singapore, and Brussels before, with Hong Kong being the 44th city to host the exhibition.
The 'bubbles' are made of glass filter materials, which show blue and purple colors under the sunlight at different angles during the day.
In addition to the three giant 'bubbles', there are also more than fifty 'small bubbles'.
We also encountered the 'Duckling' promoting 'Art in Hong Kong'.
We went to West Kowloon again on the evening of Ching Ming Festival, and 'Embracing the Moment of Bubbles' offers different visual effects during the day and night, making it worth visiting more than once.
The illuminated giant 'bubbles' are too beautiful.
'Night Fun West Kowloon' was an unexpected gain.
Hong Kong Space Museum presents the new 3D dome film 'Polar Extremes 3D'.
Starting from April 1st (Monday), the Hong Kong Space Museum's Stanley Ho Space Theatre will be screening the new 3D dome film 'Polar Extremes 3D', taking audiences on an exploration of Antarctica.
Antarctica is the coldest, driest, and windiest place on Earth. 'Polar Extremes 3D' will lead audiences deep into the Antarctic animal world, starting with a dive beneath the ice into a vibrant underwater world, then returning to the surface to join a large penguin colony, and finally enjoying what may be the most whales ever seen on screen. Whales play a key role in mitigating climate change, and the film not only provides a visual spectacle for viewers but also helps them understand the impact of human overhunting of whales on climate change. With global temperatures rising, the film prompts humans to reflect and take action to protect the Antarctic ecosystem, to prevent climate change from disrupting its balance and further affecting the whole world.
The program is 24 minutes long and will be shown until January 13, 2025. Screening times are 2:00 PM and 6:30 PM on weekdays; and 12:30 PM and 5:00 PM on weekends and public holidays. Ticket prices are 24 HKD (front seats) and 32 HKD (back seats). Tickets are now available at the Hong Kong Space Museum Box Office and URBTIX.
The Hong Kong Space Museum is located at 10 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, and is closed on Tuesdays (except public holidays).

The only century-old water distribution reservoir remaining in Hong Kong.
Address: Bishop Hill, Shek Kip Mei
Average cost per person: Free
Itinerary: Reservation for guided tours can be made on the Water Supplies Department website
Recommended reason: Grade I historic building
Before 2021, the Sham Shui Po water distribution reservoir was confirmed as a Grade I historic building, and it is now open to the public on a limited basis. During the initial opening period, reservations were often full, and I finally managed to book a spot recently. The guided tours are government-funded and free of charge, with groups of about thirty to forty people led by several guides. Visitors climb over three hundred stone steps to reach the reservoir, which has a history of over a hundred years. The entire building was constructed before the war, featuring a grand Roman-style architecture with over a hundred granite columns, presenting a magnificent scene. The guides provide a very detailed explanation of the history, and the whole tour lasts about an hour. At the end, there is even a small gift given away, making it a very worthwhile visit.

Vivid Bright Red inspiration
#timetotravel
Jiu Fen Full, a little taste of Taiwan restaurant at their branch of Amoy Garden, Ngau Tau Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong, particularly draw my attention to enter and take a look at their superb Chinese scene with red background decoration and bright lanterns.
Must say very exciting to see every inches of it! The most famous for Taiwanese cuisine is the braised pork with rice but I don’t like the fattening pork. So I chose to try the noodle soup which haven’t had before, HK$50, with their special drink, HK$25.
The food arrived in a short time and the taste was outstanding good. They have branches at Tuenmun, Kowloon and Hong Kong but not known if any of them will be as dazzling as this one.
