Overview

How did Happy Valley become what it is today? This exhibition traces the landscape transformations and the dynamic interactions between people and the environment that have shaped the character of Happy Valley, portraying the layered life of this evolving valley as one of Hong Kong's iconic cultural landscapes.

Multimedia presentations including an interactive topographic model, documentary films of the 1930s, the 1970s, and the present day, as well as rarely seen historic photos and maps reveal the interwoven experience and everyday relationships that people have with Happy Valley. The interpretation highlights the cultural connections with the landscape, as well as the values and meanings that have been built upon, then and now.

This focused show on Happy Valley sheds light on how we may see our city and urban heritage conservation in a holistic manner so as to build an inclusive, sustainable, and resilient future.
