To tie in with the “Images Through Times: Photos of Old Hong Kong” Exhibition, the Hong Kong Museum of History (HKMH) has produced the “A Glimpse of Old Hong Kong” mobile application in collaboration with the team of the Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Multimedia Technology & Innovation programme, Faculty of Science & Technology of the Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong (THEi).

Through this mobile application, you can view old photographs of selected “check-in” locations on Hong Kong Island, in Kowloon or the New Territories. The images will be displayed on the screen through your mobile when you visit the “check in” points and activate this application.
