【「歲月遊蹤」海事攝影展：新晉攝影師Edward Stokes | Voyage Through Time Exhibition: Edward Stokes, Beginning Photographer】🌊

「港口一直在變化，但它仍然是香港的中心點。如果拿掉港口，香港就會不一樣了。」攝影師艾思滔曾在一次媒體訪問中表示。📷

「歳月遊蹤」展覽展示了 1940 年代至 1970 年代期間，由 Hedda Morrison, Brian Brake 及 Edward Stokes (艾思滔) 在香港拍攝的照片。他們三人各有緣由到訪香港，加上不同的生活背景，成就了鏡頭下獨特而美麗的香港。Edward Stokes於1948年5月在澳洲出生，兒時在香港長大。1970年代後期，當時居於澳洲的Stokes自學成為攝影師，早年曾獲澳洲期刊委託拍攝香港的人文風貌。Stokes 於1993年重回香港，現時主理「香港影像留真計劃」。🌊

「歲月遊蹤」展覽現已免費開放，誠邀您和親友在佳節期間🎄蒞臨香港海事博物館參觀，體驗這段珍貴的歷史旅程！🌟

"The harbour is always changing, but it remains the central point of Hong Kong. Without it, the city would be entirely different," photographer Edward Stokes once said in an interview. 📷 (The English translation version from the Chinese media coverage)

Voyage Through Time is an exhibition of captivating photographs taken in Hong Kong between the 1940s and 1970s by celebrated photographers Hedda Morrison, Brian Brake and Edward Stokes. They each had unique reasons for visiting or staying in Hong Kong, and their diverse backgrounds offer fascinating perspectives on the city through their lenses. Edward Stokes was born in Australia in May 1948, but he grew up in Hong Kong. During the late 1970s, by then living in Australia, Stokes became a self-taught photographer. One early project was an Australian journal photo story about Hong Kong. Stokes returned to Hong Kong in 1993. He is now leading the Hong Kong Photo Heritage Programme’s projects.

The Voyage Through Time exhibition is now open for free, and we sincerely invite you to visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum during the festive season 🎄 to experience this precious journey through history! 🌟

【🎉🎊祝大家新年快樂Happy New Year 2025!】

在剛剛過去的跨年夜，想必很多人都沉浸在歡樂的氛圍中，與親朋好友一同把酒言歡，一同共同迎接2025的到來。當我們在溫暖舒適的環境中舉杯歡慶🥂時，有沒有想過，以前水手們在遠洋的船上🚢是如何度過佳節的呢？

這個1853年印度加爾各答鑄造刻有H.E.I.C（榮耀東印度公司）的黃銅蘭姆酒容器🥃比舊式酒容器多出14%。在茫茫大海之上，水手們遠離家鄉和親人，在艱苦的航行中，這個裝滿蘭姆酒的容器，相信是他們在漫長航程中的一種慰藉。

Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and the atmosphere was filled with joy and celebration. Some of you may drink🍾 with friends and family to welcome 2025. While you were raising a glass🥂 in a cozy environment, have you ever wondered how sailors used to spend such moments on the ships🚢?

This H.E.I.C. [Honourable East India Company] rum measure🥃 was made in 1853 in Calcutta, India. It could hold 14 percent more than the Old Wine Gallon. When sailors were far from their family and friends, this rum-filled container was a comfort to sailors on their long voyages.

【🌊🌟來一趟文字的想像旅程 – 第四章：「洋」！ Embark on a Journey of Imagination with Chinese Characters – Chapter 4: “Ocean”! 】

繼上一章介紹的「浪」字，今章將探討與海事息息相關的「洋」字。「洋」—— 是指比海更大的水域🌊 。浪更大，海面更為洶湧，就算是大船也要小心地行駛。

可以看至圖二的篆書「洋」。水（氵）表意，形體像水流；羊，則表聲。我們可以將此與我們的館藏 —— 創作在中國，這幅原尺寸為33 x 45.7 cm的畫作，描繪了一艘航行在汪洋的大船，從海浪的用色，就能看出光線的方向🌟　你又覺得這幅畫作有沒有畫出「洋」的神髓？🌊

歡迎您親臨香港海事博物館，欣賞更多關於海事和海洋的畫作，並一同想像古人在文字創作中的旅程！🖼️

Following the previous chapter’s discussion on the character "浪" (wave), this chapter explores the character "洋," which is deeply connected to maritime themes. "洋" refers to a very large expanse of sea 🌊. With bigger waves and rougher waters, even large ships must navigate cautiously.

Take a look at the seal script of "洋" in image two. The water radical (氵) represents meaning, resembling flowing water, while the "羊" component represents sound. We can connect this to our collection—a Chinese artwork measuring 33 x 45.7 cm, depicting a large ship sailing on vast waters. From the use of color in the waves, you can discern the direction of the light 🌟. Do you think this painting captures the essence of "洋"? 🌊

We invite you to visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum to appreciate more artworks related to maritime themes and to imagine the journey of ancient word creation!

【📸🌇打開老香港！第四章：1966年舊港澳客輪碼頭Chapter 4: 1966 Hong Kong–Macau Ferry Terminal】

第四章，讓我們穿越時光，來到1966年的上環！漫步至海旁，看到鄰近上環大笪地的舊港澳客輪碼頭，當時碼頭經常出現排隊人潮，也可以看到有不少的巴士和私家車停泊。大家又能否想像當年在舊碼頭購票的情況？🌟 後來在1985年，在信德中心的港澳碼頭正式揭幕，提供往來香港－澳門及香港－大陸港口的高速客輪服務。

這些珍貴的舊照片不僅乘載歷史，更記錄了無數人物的故事，為那個時代劃下了深刻的文化意義。我們誠摯邀請您蒞臨博物館，欣賞更多珍貴的香港舊照片，與我們一起打開老香港，展開一場充滿幻想的時光之旅。🔑

Chapter 4 takes us back in time to Sheung Wan in 1966! Walking along the harbor, you’d see the old Hong Kong–Macau Ferry Terminal near the Sheung Wan Tai Tat Tei Night Market bustling with queues of people, along with plenty of buses and private cars parked nearby. Can you imagine what it was like to buy tickets at the old terminal back then? 🌟 Fast forward to 1985, the Macau Ferry Terminal at Shun Tak Centre officially opened, offering ferry services to Macao and cities in southern China.

These old photographs carry history and countless stories, marking a cultural significance of the times. We warmly invite you to visit the museum and explore more precious historical photos of Hong Kong. Let’s unlock old Hong Kong together and embark on a journey of imagination. 🔑

【 🎄聖誕知多點 - 海洋的小小聖誕樹Stories of Christmas - Underwater Christmas Tree】

聖誕臨近，相信你今年已經看過不少聖誕樹，但你知道海底有一種很像聖誕樹的生物，名叫「聖誕樹管蟲」嗎? 🌊🎄

聖誕樹管蟲 (Christmas tree worms)
又名大旋鰓蟲，牠有兩個像是聖誕樹的鰓冠，這對「聖誕樹」主要用作濾捕食物和呼吸。

這種管蟲小小的，只有三至四厘米左右，色彩斑斕。常見顏色有黄色、橙色、藍色、紫色和白色等，十分顯眼。牠的身體大部分都藏在珊瑚中，受驚時兩棵「聖誕樹」更會迅速收回管腔內，非常可愛。

隨著節日臨近，大家都可能参與各種節慶活動🥂 。希望大家在慶祝的同時，都不忘減少廢物，愛護我們的海洋🌊 ，祝各位聖誕快樂！

Christmas is coming! You may have already seen lots of Christmas trees this year, but do you know there is an animal in the deep sea that looks just like Christmas tree? 🌊🎄

Christmas tree worms
Also known as Spirobranchus giganteus by scientists, Christmas tree worm has two crown-liked structures resembling Christmas trees. These tiny “Christmas trees” are actually used to breath and filter food from water.

Christmas tree worm is small, only about three to four centimeters long, but it is very eye-catching. Common colors include yellow, orange, blue, purple, and white, making it quite easy to spot. Most of its body is hidden within the coral, and when it senses danger, the two "Christmas trees" will quickly retract into the tube, which is very interesting.

There are many celebrations 🥂 as the festive season approaches. While you are celebrating, please do not forget to reduce waste, as without your help, our ocean 🌊 may soon be full of waste and all the marine wildlife, including the Christmas tree worms, may disappear. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

A fleeting visitor, yet captured various facets of life in postwar Hong Kong. 📷

Voyage Through Time is an exhibition of captivating photographs taken in Hong Kong between the 1940s and 1970s by celebrated photographers Hedda Morrison, Brian Brake and Edward Stokes. They each had unique reasons for visiting or staying in Hong Kong, and their diverse backgrounds offer fascinating perspectives on the city through their lenses. Hedda Morrison was born in Germany in December 1908. After training in photography, a work opportunity led her to China in 1933. In September 1946, Hedda Morrison arrived in Hong Kong from China. She stayed here for six months. During that time, Morrison photographed widely and especially around the harbour. Her photos are a telling visual record of immediate postwar maritime Hong Kong. 🌊

【打開老香港！第三章：1868的皇后大道小店 Chapter 3: 1868 A Store at Queen's Road】

第三章，讓我們穿越時光，來到1868年的街頭閒逛！漫步至皇后大道，踏入一家名為「華隆和培記」的商號，店員們身著清代服飾，店內的招牌上寫著出售絲綢、披肩、象牙製品與漆器墊等商品，仔細一看，貨架上還擺放著精緻的船模型，讓人一窺當年的流行裝飾品。這款船模型與我們博物館收藏的一艘象牙船裝飾品頗為相似，你能猜到那是哪一件嗎？🌟

這些珍貴的舊照片不僅乘載歷史，更記錄了無數人物的故事，為那個時代劃下了深刻的文化意義。讓人不禁好奇，1868年的香港究竟發生了哪些故事？當時的人們也會在購物時「講價」？商家和熟客們的對話又是如何進行的？如果你有機會乘坐時光機回到過去，想必會有許多心儀的商品想要購買。

我們誠摯邀請您蒞臨博物館，欣賞更多珍貴的香港舊照片，與我們一起打開老香港，展開一場充滿幻想的時光之旅。🔑

Chapter 3 takes us on a journey through time to visit the streets of 1868! Wander down Queen’s Road and step into a shop called "Wah Loong and Cumwo" The shopkeepers, dressed in Qing dynasty attire, welcome you into a space where the signage advertises silks, crape shawls, ivory items, and lacquered mats. Take a closer look, and you’ll also spot model ships displayed on the shelves, offering a glimpse of the trendy decorative items of that era. Interestingly, one of these ship models closely resembles an ivory ship model in our museum’s collection. Can you guess which artifact we are talking about? 🌟

These old photographs carry history and countless stories, marking a cultural significance of the times. It’s hard not to wonder — what stories happened in 1868 Hong Kong? Did people back then haggle while shopping? What kind of conversations took place between shopkeepers and their customers? If you could hop into a time machine and shop in the past, what would you buy? 🌟

We warmly invite you to visit the museum and explore more precious historical photos of Hong Kong. Let’s unlock old Hong Kong together and embark on a journey of imagination. 🔑

【講座回顧 | 海洋科學家講座系列─ 海螺的秘密生活 Talk Recap | Meet-the-Marine-Scientist Series: The Secret Lives of Marine Snails】

我們於上星期六，聯同一班海洋科學家🔬，包括：香港大學太古海洋科學研究所Gray A Williams教授及嶺南大學科學教研組的Tommy Hui教授和Sarah Lau博士，舉辦了以海螺生態為主題的講座🎤，帶來了豐富的資訊和有趣的互動工作坊！

活動結束後，我們把海螺送回牠們居住的生境。
考考你，知道今次介紹的海螺平日居住在哪裡？

位於陸地與海洋交接的潮間帶，岩岸每天有著強烈的環境變化，因此對動物而言，岩岸絕非舒適的地方，在這生境存活要面對海浪🌊、溫度🌡️和潮汐等等嚴苛挑戰。縱然如此，香港岩岸還是超過400種生物的家🏠。為了生活在岩岸，牠們演變出五花八門的對策，有的躲在縫隙和陰暗處以避免曝曬☀️，也有像濱螺透過分泌黏液緊緊黏着岩石，甚至爬到彼此的殼上，形成「螺塔」，以減少接觸岩石來降溫。

香港的海岸線以岩岸為主，不同海浪沖刷程度的岩岸會出現不同的岩岸群落。若想了解沖刷度高的岩岸，可以前往石澳和大浪灣；若是沖刷度低的岩岸，大潭和吐露港內的海岸則是好去處。無論到哪個岩岸觀察，請不要打擾生物或破壞其棲息地，並且量力而為，安全至上⛑️。

Last Saturday, we invited a group of marine scientists🔬, including Professor Gray A Williams from the Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) of the University of Hong Kong, and Professor Tommy Hui and Dr Sarah Lau from the Science Unit of Lingnan University, to organise a workshop about the ecology of rocky shore snails. Providing everyone with rich information, the lecture🎤 also had an engaging interactive section!

After the event, we brought the snails back to their habitat.
Do you know where do they usually live?

Rocky shore is a unique environment located in the intertidal zone where the land meets the sea. Rocky shores experience strong environmental changes every day which are far from comfortable for animals to live in; survival in this habitat means facing harsh challenges such as waves🌊, high/low temperature 🌡️ and tides. Despite these, Hong Kong rocky shores are still home🏠 to over 400 species of organisms. These organisms have evolved various strategies to deal with the harsh environment. Some of them hide in crevices and shaded areas to escape from the sun☀️, and some, like periwinkles, secrete mucus to cling tightly to rocks or even climb onto each other to form "snail towers", to reduce the contact with the hot rock surface.

【🌊🌟來一趟文字的想像旅程 – 第三章：「浪」！ Embark on a Journey of Imagination with Chinese Characters – Chapter 3: “Waves”! 】

繼上一章介紹的「帆」字，今章將探討與大海、海事息息相關的「浪」字。「浪」—— 沒有特定的形態，是自由的，是萬變的，但偏偏不同的畫家就愛挑戰把這種無形的水波湧浪勾畫在紙上，使其變得有形，卻又有保持著其流動、洶湧的感覺，非常值得我們細味欣賞。🌊

「浪」最早見於小篆，即圖二的文字，指波浪。水（氵）表意，形體像水流，配在「浪」的形態上，有點像激起水花的感覺；良，則表聲。我們可以將此與我們的館藏 —— 創作於1894年，一幅描繪中日戰爭海戰的畫作對照，作品不僅捕捉了「浪」的氣勢和美感，也展現出海戰的緊張感。您是否也能感受到這二者之間的相似之處呢？ 🌟

歡迎您親臨香港海事博物館，欣賞更多關於海事和海洋的畫作，並一同想像古人在文字創作中的旅程！🖼️

Following the introduction of the character "帆" in the previous chapter, this chapter will explore the character "浪," which is closely tied to the sea and maritime themes. "浪" can have a wide range of shapes, and is ever-changing—has long been a fascination for artists who challenge themselves to depict these flowing waves on paper. They strive to give it form while maintaining its sense of motion and turbulence, making these drawings into true works of art. 🌊

The earliest appearance of "浪" is found in the Small Seal Script, as seen in picture 2, where it represents waves. The "氵" symbolizes water, while paired it in the form of "浪," it evokes the image of splashing water. The element "良" provides the phonetic component. We can compare this to an artwork in our collection—a painting from 1894 depicting a naval battle in the Sino-Japanese War. The piece not only captures the power and beauty of the waves but also conveys the tension of the sea battle. Can you sense the similarities between the character and the painting? 🌟

We invite you to visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum to appreciate more artworks related to maritime themes and to imagine the journey of ancient word creation! 🖼️

「浪」最早見於小篆，即圖二的文字，指波浪。水（氵）表意，形體像水流，配在「浪」的形態上，有點像激起水花的感覺；良，則表聲。我們可以將此與我們的館藏 —— 創作於1894年，一幅描繪中日戰爭海戰的畫作對照，作品不僅捕捉了「浪」的氣勢和美感，也展現出海戰的緊張感。您是否也能感受到這二者之間的相似之處呢？ 🌟

歡迎您親臨香港海事博物館，欣賞更多關於海事和海洋的畫作，並一同想像古人在文字創作中的旅程！🖼️

Following the introduction of the character "帆" in the previous chapter, this chapter will explore the character "浪," which is closely tied to the sea and maritime themes. "浪" can have a wide range of shapes, and is ever-changing—has long been a fascination for artists who challenge themselves to depict these flowing waves on paper. They strive to give it form while maintaining its sense of motion and turbulence, making these drawings into true works of art. 🌊

The earliest appearance of "浪" is found in the Small Seal Script, as seen in picture 2, where it represents waves. The "氵" symbolizes water, while paired it in the form of "浪," it evokes the image of splashing water. The element "良" provides the phonetic component. We can compare this to an artwork in our collection—a painting from 1894 depicting a naval battle in the Sino-Japanese War. The piece not only captures the power and beauty of the waves but also conveys the tension of the sea battle. Can you sense the similarities between the character and the painting? 🌟

We invite you to visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum to appreciate more artworks related to maritime themes and to imagine the journey of ancient word creation! 🖼️

【📸🌆打開老香港！第二章：50年代天星碼頭Unfolding Old Hong Kong! Chapter 2: 1950s The old Hong Kong Star Ferry Pier】

歡迎來到第二章，讓我們一起探索50年代天星碼頭的獨特魅力！在這裡，您可以看到碼頭旁的「Kowloon Ferry」標誌，場景正是繁忙的中環。這張珍貴的舊照片展示了當時的天星小輪，長煙囪的設計讓人懷念，正準備啟航前往九龍。

那時的海岸線尚未填海，背景中的干諾道建築散發著50年代的歷史韻味。而「可口可樂」的戶外廣告牌更增添了懷舊的氛圍，讓人不禁思索：那時的汽水口味與今天有何不同？🧐

這張舊照片宛如時光機，帶我們回到那個充滿活力與繁忙的年代，感受都市的獨特魅力。✨

誠摯邀請您蒞臨博物館，欣賞更多香港的珍貴舊照片。細細觀察，您將發現許多驚人的小細節！📜

Welcome to Chapter 2! Let’s explore the unique charm of the Star Ferry Pier in the 1950s together! Here, you can see the "Kowloon Ferry" sign next to the pier, set against the bustling backdrop of Central. This precious old photograph showcases the Star Ferry of that time, with its long smokestack design evoking nostalgia as it prepares to set sail for Kowloon.

Back then, the coastline had not yet been reclaimed, and the buildings on Connaught Road exude the historical charm of the 1950s. The "Coca-Cola" outdoor advertisement adds to the nostalgic atmosphere, prompting us to ponder: how did the soda flavors of that era differ from today? 🧐

This old photograph acts like a time machine, transporting us back to a vibrant and busy period, allowing us to experience the unique allure of the city. ✨

We sincerely invite you to visit the museum and appreciate more precious old photographs of Hong Kong. With careful observation, you will discover many amazing little details! 📜

【📸🌆打開老香港！第二章：50年代天星碼頭Unfolding Old Hong Kong! Chapter 2: 1950s The old Hong Kong Star Ferry Pier】

歡迎來到第二章，讓我們一起探索50年代天星碼頭的獨特魅力！在這裡，您可以看到碼頭旁的「Kowloon Ferry」標誌，場景正是繁忙的中環。這張珍貴的舊照片展示了當時的天星小輪，長煙囪的設計讓人懷念，正準備啟航前往九龍。

那時的海岸線尚未填海，背景中的干諾道建築散發著50年代的歷史韻味。而「可口可樂」的戶外廣告牌更增添了懷舊的氛圍，讓人不禁思索：那時的汽水口味與今天有何不同？🧐

這張舊照片宛如時光機，帶我們回到那個充滿活力與繁忙的年代，感受都市的獨特魅力。✨

誠摯邀請您蒞臨博物館，欣賞更多香港的珍貴舊照片。細細觀察，您將發現許多驚人的小細節！📜

Welcome to Chapter 2! Let’s explore the unique charm of the Star Ferry Pier in the 1950s together! Here, you can see the "Kowloon Ferry" sign next to the pier, set against the bustling backdrop of Central. This precious old photograph showcases the Star Ferry of that time, with its long smokestack design evoking nostalgia as it prepares to set sail for Kowloon.

Back then, the coastline had not yet been reclaimed, and the buildings on Connaught Road exude the historical charm of the 1950s. The "Coca-Cola" outdoor advertisement adds to the nostalgic atmosphere, prompting us to ponder: how did the soda flavors of that era differ from today? 🧐

This old photograph acts like a time machine, transporting us back to a vibrant and busy period, allowing us to experience the unique allure of the city. ✨

We sincerely invite you to visit the museum and appreciate more precious old photographs of Hong Kong. With careful observation, you will discover many amazing little details! 📜

【🌊🌟來一趟文字的想像旅程 – 第二章：「帆」！ Embark on a Journey of Imagination with Chinese Characters – Chapter 2: “Sail”! 】

繼上一章介紹的「舟」字，今章將探討與「舟」息息相關的「帆」字。在這一章中，我們將深入探討「帆」字的含義及其在航海中的重要性。「帆」是懸掛在船桅上的布篷，利用風的力量推動船隻前行。字形中，「巾」部代表帆的材質 —— 布，而「凡」則表音，原本意指一種盥洗器皿，延伸出帆在風中時所呈現的凹陷狀態。

我們可以將此與我們的館藏——創作於1850年的畫作《耆英號》進行對照。這幅作品不僅捕捉了當時的航海精神，也生動展現了帆的動態美感。您是否也能感受到這二者之間的相似之處呢？ 🌟

歡迎您親臨香港海事博物館，欣賞更多關於海事和海洋的畫作，並一同想像古人在文字創作中的旅程！🖼️

Following the introduction of the character "舟" (boat) in the previous chapter, this chapter will discuss the character "帆" (sail) which is closely related to boat. In this chapter, we will delve into the meaning of the character "帆" and its significance in maritime contexts. The "帆" is a sail that hangs from the mast of a ship, utilizing the power of the wind to propel the vessel forward. The character consists of the component "巾," which represents the material of the sail — cloth, while "凡" serves as the phonetic element, originally referring to a type of washing vessel, and extending to the shape the sail takes when filled with wind.

We can compare this with our collection—a painting titled " The Chinese junk keying " created in 1850. This artwork not only captures the spirit of maritime exploration at that time but also vividly showcases the dynamic beauty of sails. Do you also sense the similarities between the two? 🌟

We invite you to visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum to appreciate more artworks related to maritime themes and to imagine the journey of ancient word creation! 🖼️

【「歲月遊蹤」海事攝影展 —— 從黑白相，走到繽紛彩色影像時代Voyage Through Time Exhibition - From Black-and-White Photos to the Vibrant Era of Colourful Images】🌊

「歳月遊蹤」展覽涵蓋 1940 年代至 1970 年代期間，由 Hedda Morrison, Brian Brake 及 Edward Stokes (艾思滔) 在香港拍攝的照片。參觀者將從黑白照片中，目睹戰後香港的荒蕪景象，破舊的船隻與在貧窮中掙扎的人們，勾勒出那段艱難的歷史。參觀者將進入旁邊的繽紛彩色影像，見證港口的繁華與變遷，彷彿隨著時間的推移，與香港共同回顧其發展歷程。⏳

香港海事博物館副館長（策展及教育）麥杰睿表示︰「這是一個難得的機會，在同一展覽中集合了三位備受推崇的攝影師，他們背景不同但互相補足，記錄了戰後香港不同時期的面貌。這些照片準確捕捉港人如何克服戰後的困苦時期，努力不懈地打造一個充滿活力和成功的城市。透過這次展覽，參觀者可以更深入瞭解香港如何復甦以及市民生活的改變。」🚢✨

「歲月遊蹤」展覽現已免費開放，誠邀您蒞臨香港海事博物館參觀，體驗這段珍貴的歷史旅程！🌟

Voyage Through Time is an exhibition of captivating photographs taken in Hong Kong between the 1940s and 1970s by celebrated photographers Hedda Morrison, Brian Brake and Edward Stokes. Through black-and-white images, visitors can witness the post-war landscapes of Hong Kong, portraying dilapidated boats and people struggling in poverty. Visitors can then gradually move to the vibrant colour photographs that showcase the bustling harbor and its transformation. It is as if participants are journeying through a time tunnel, immersing themselves in the rich history of Hong Kong harbour. ⏳

Jeremy Michell, Deputy Director (Curatorial & Education) at HKMM, states, “It is a unique opportunity to have an exhibition by three different, but complementary and well-respected photographers record different periods of postwar Hong Kong. These photographs beautifully capture how Hong Kong’s people overcame the legacies of a long war to work tirelessly to create an energetic and successful city. Through this exhibition, visitors can gain a deeper understanding of that change and its visual impact on Hong Kong and its citizens.” 🚢✨

The Voyage Through Time exhibition is now open for free, and we sincerely invite you to visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum to experience this precious journey through history! 🌟

【度脫之舞The Last Dance】

在近期大熱電影《破·地獄》📽️中，我們得以窺見殯儀行業的故事，以及人們對生死和來世的深刻思考💭。而在香港海事博物館中，有一件「漢代帶俑陶船」，亦能讓我們反思古代人對「生死」的看法👀。

「漢代帶俑陶船」是從四川的一座陵墓中出土的陪葬物。在古代，陪葬品通常蘊含著生者對死者的祝願🙏，而這艘陶船也不例外。主船艙內有一組人物，包括一名古琴演奏家、一名舞者，以及可能是死者本人。他們在渡過河流🌊的過程中，奏響仙樂♫，彷彿在為死者送上最後一場盛大的演出。這艘船被視為通往來世的交通工具，象徵著死亡並非終點，而是另一段旅程的開端。陶船⛵承載著死者的靈魂，朝著來世的方向航行，讓我們感受到生死之間的深邃聯繫。

In the story of the funeral industry told in the recently popular movie "The Last Dance" 📽️, we can see people's thoughts💭 on life and death. At the Hong Kong Maritime Museum, there is a " Chinese funerary boat with figures". Through it, we can also glimpse the ancient people's views👀 on death.

The "Chinese funerary boat with figures" is a grave goods unearthed from a tomb in Sichuan. In ancient times, grave goods often contained the wishes🙏 of the living for the dead, just like this boat. Within the main cabin a group of figures can be seen, including an instrumentalist playing the guqin, a dancer, and possibly the deceased. They play celestial music♫ on their journey across the river🌊, completing the last dance of life. This boat is regarded as a means of transportation to the afterlife. Just as in people's minds, death is not the end but the beginning of another journey. The boat⛵ carries the soul of the dead towards the afterlife.
