After five years of planning, design and construction, the Hong Kong Palace Museum opened to the public on 3 July 2022. Arup’s total engineering services played a central role in bringing the showcase of Chinese art and culture to life.
Located at the harbour front of the West Kowloon Cultural District, the seven-storey building features an exhibition space of 7,800m² across nine galleries. It also houses the Auditorium, Activity Rooms and other ancillary facilities, offering spaces for a rich variety of public programmes to foster visitors’ interest in arts and culture.
