Hong Kong Racing Museum

There are many horse fans in Hong Kong. The horse racing events brought by the British in Hong Kong have become a part of the life of Hong Kong citizens today. The Horse Racing Museum, adjacent to the Happy Valley Racecourse, preserves precious information on the development of horse racing in Hong Kong from the mid-19th century to the present. There is a 1:1 model of a Mongolian pony and a jockey next to the gate of the museum. There are 8 exhibition halls, a cinema with a capacity of 84 people and a gift gallery. In the corner of the museum, there is also a special hall for charity. In the exhibition hall, some charity exhibitions will be held here from time to time. The themes of the museum's galleries include the history of horse racing in Hong Kong, the development of Happy Valley and Sha Tin Racecourse, as well as information on several famous horses of the generation, including the skeleton of three-time horse Wang Luyi. Short films about horse racing are regularly shown in the cinema. Of particular note is the skeleton of "Lu Yi", which originated from Hong Kong's first million-dollar horse king who died in 1995.
