The last exhibit to visit on Deck C, in room C4, is entitled “Creating Victoria Harbour”. It will take you along a timeline that goes from 1841, the year Hong Kong became a British colony, to the years following the Second World War.
It’s fascinating to observe the radical change undergone by Hong Kong during its first 40 years as a British colony, from a natural harbor with little fishing villages to the most important trading port in China.
In just a few short years, the bay became filled with docks, warehouses and offices for merchants from a variety of countries in Europe and Asia.
