The University of Hong Kong's museum and art gallery is one of the best places to visit in the city. With a fine collection of precious porcelains, antique sculpture and graphic works, the collection is of high quality. Donated by various figures from the city's history, it is professionally presented in a series of small, intimate and well- designed galleries.

The University Museum and Art Gallery (UMAG) is conveniently located at the main entrance of The University of Hong Kong on Bonham Road.

It houses over one thousand items of Chinese antiquities, principally ceramics, bronzes and paintings. The comprehensive collection has examples dating from the Neolithic period to the Qing dynasty. The ceramics on view are augmented by items on long- term loan from the Tsui Art Foundation. The bronze collection includes works from the Shang to the Tang dynasties and the largest collection of Yuan dynasty Nestorian crosses in the world.

The Museum also has a number of carvings in jade, wood and stone and a collection of Chinese oil paintings.

Hours: 9:30a- 6p M- Sa, 1:30p- 5:30p Su.
