Exhibition Details

The Hong Kong Jockey Club promotes the development of arts and culture to enrich the lives of Hong Kong people. We proudly bring you “The Hong Kong Jockey Club Series: The Ancient Civilisation of the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties in Henan Province” exhibition, which is the first in the General History of Chinese History Exhibition Series organised by the Hong Kong Museum of History. Featuring over 150 sets of precious artefacts, including some classified as grade-one national treasures, it will give members of the public an understanding of the civilisation and history of ancient China, starting from the earliest dynasties.

The exhibition features large and complete sets of bronze ware, jade ware, pottery, bone ware and oracle bones from the Wangchenggang site in Dengfeng, the Wadian site in Yuzhou, the Erlitou site in Yanshi, Shang City in Zhengzhou, the Yinxu site in Anyang, the Wangcheng of Eastern Zhou in Luoyang, and the various states of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.

The Club also supports a series of educational activities to help visitors to learn more about the Three Dynasties history. These include guided tours, expert talks, and workshops. An interactive zone equipped with interactive games, enagaging display and animations provides supplementary information and enhances the visitor experience, especially for young people. Learning kits are distributed to primary and secondary schools to further support their classroom education.

The Club commits to building an inclusive, creative and vibrant Hong Kong, where everyone can enjoy the benefits offered by cultural experiences and an improved quality of life through arts.
