Hong Kong Palace Museum
Museum of Palace Museum treasures and related Chinese art at the western tip of West Kowloon, a short walk from M+ along Museum Drive. Regular hours are typically 10:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, and until 8:00 p.m. Friday, Saturday and public holidays; closed Tuesdays except public holidays, plus the first two days of Lunar New Year. Buy timed tickets in advance for weekends; children under 12 must be accompanied. Pair with M+ on the same WestK visit rather than treating the two as interchangeable.

While you're there
Museum Drive in West Kowloon sits beside M+. Do both in one district day if stamina allows, then ferry or taxi to Tsim Sha Tsui for Rosewood Hong Kong. Book timed tickets; Mondays and exhibition changeovers matter.
Pro Tip: If you also hold M+ tickets, pick one deep collection per half-day; Museum Drive looks walkable until you try to do both properly and hit the last-entry clocks.
- Best for
- A West Kowloon museum day focused on Chinese imperial collections.
- Pair with
- M+ next door on a separate half-day.
- Season / timing
- Art March late March is busiest; weekday mornings outside fair week stay calmer.
