Hong Kong Museum of History launches exhibition to commemorate 150th anniversary of Dr Sun Yat-sen's birth (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
The exhibition features artefacts together with a wide range of photos, videos and multimedia programmes, through which visitors can learn about the revolutionary career of Dr Sun Yat-sen and the interpersonal network he developed in Hong Kong. A life-size figure of Dr Sun during his teenage years is available for photo-taking.
To give visitors a better understanding about the times of Dr Sun, the exhibition also features other revolutionaries such as Li Yuk-tong and Tse Tsan-tai, reformers Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, and even the Qing rulers Empress Dowager Cixi and the Xuantong Emperor. Interesting stories are shared to offer visitors a wider perspective on the late Qing and early Republican periods, as well as how Dr Sun rose to the challenges for his revolutionary cause.
