CLP Pulse at a Glance
CLP Pulse features three permanent exhibitions – ElectriCity, Our Home ∙ Our History and Traces of Human Touch, all aimed at engaging with the community and raising awareness of cultural heritage, decarbonisation, and their importance to a sustainable future.
Guided Tours
To explore ElectriCity
In a 40-minute tour packed with stories, visitors can explore the way in which electricity – a relative novelty a century ago – has powered Hong Kong’s growth and brought many transformational changes to people’s lives. Visitors can also learn about a power company’s meticulous planning aimed at solving the energy trilemma, and enjoy different interactive, immersive activities that guide them towards the lifestyles of a greener future.
To explore Our Home • Our History and Traces of Human Touch
Want to understand the link between the Kadoorie businesses and Hong Kong’s post-war development, and how intangible cultural heritage connects people? Check out Our Home ∙ Our History and Traces of Human Touch.
On display at Our Home ∙ Our History are rare photographs, films and artefacts and a selection of oral history video highlights of people from all walks of life. Next door at Traces of Human Touch, you’ll find Hong Kong's intangible cultural heritage through precious traditional Chinese crafts.
