"The Legend of Hong Kong Toys" Exhibition

"The Legend of Hong Kong Toys" Exhibition

 

Hong Kong may be a small city, but it was once the world's largest toy exporter. High-quality, low-cost toys drew international brands to the city looking for factories to carry out production. Meanwhile, local toy manufacturers strived to create their own brands and tapped into overseas markets with premium products, taking Hong Kong-made toys to the world's arena.

 

Hong Kong Museum of History presents an exhibition "The Legend of Hong Kong Toys" at Terminal 2 at the Airport. By showcasing around 60 (sets of) toys familiar to Hong Kong people or made locally, the exhibition explores the evolution of toys in the past few decades and the way they adapt to changing times.
