| Description: |
Hong Kong’s industrial development can be traced back to traditional handicraft workshops during the Song and Yuan dynasties. In the mid-19th century, Hong Kong evolved into a major trading port, giving rise to modern industries. By the mid-20th century, labour-intensive industries such as textiles and garments began to thrive in Hong Kong. The 1970s saw the emergence of industries such as toys, electronics, and watches and clocks. Together, these industries became key pillars of the local economy in the 1980s. This document display revisits our industrial development and examines its impact on popular culture, while celebrating the resilience of workers and entrepreneurs who have made significant contributions to our economy.
This document display is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has long been promoting Chinese history and culture through organizing an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about the broad and profound Chinese culture.

| Description: |
With a history dating back around 3,000 years, the qin, or guqin as this Chinese zither is more commonly called today, is one of the oldest plucked musical instruments in China. The guqin ranks first among the traditional four arts of Chinese literati, along with chess, calligraphy and painting. Occupying a distinctive position in Chinese culture, the art of guqin music was designated a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by the UNESCO in 2003 and has thus been recognised as part of the world’s intangible cultural heritage. This exhibition will bring you a wonderful world of guqin music.
This exhibition is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has long been promoting Chinese history and culture through organizing an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about the broad and profound Chinese culture.
