A Must-Visit on Rainy Days! Hong Kong M+ Museum Art Rain Shelter Guide

No need to worry about heavy rain on the weekend! Just head straight to the M+ Museum of Visual Culture in West Kowloon and let art heal the gloomy weather～ As Asia’s top contemporary art palace, the dark green ceramic tile building designed by Herzog & de Meuron is a photo hotspot itself. After the rain, the facade reflects the wet ground, making every shot look like a cinematic masterpiece📸

The exhibitions inside are so immersive you’ll lose track of time! From avant-garde films to cutting-edge installations, plus a permanent collection of contemporary Chinese art, every corner holds a surprise～ Highly recommend heading straight to the rooftop viewing platform, where the misty Victoria Harbour in the rain pairs perfectly with the aroma of coffee inside, so cozy you won’t want to leave☕️ Don’t forget to check out the free exhibition area; the basement often hosts limited-time art projects. Last time, I even stumbled upon Isamu Noguchi’s paper lantern installation—totally worth the ticket!

Super convenient transportation, just a 10-minute walk from MTR Austin Station, and you can also stop by the nearby Hong Kong Palace Museum on the way～ Fewer people inside on rainy days means better photos, so remember to bring a light jacket (the air conditioning is strong!). Buy tickets directly with the mobile Octopus card, a must for the lazy～ Next time it rains, invite your besties here and let art and coffee fill the ritual of a gloomy day.
