Things To Do in Hong Kong: ARTE M Museum

Like any day 1s, Cea and I decided to just take it easy upon arriving in Hong Kong. We had our lunch at the airport Mcdo, to ok the airport bus to our Airbnb in Mongkok, and then rested a bit in our room. It was late in the afternoon when we decided to walk outside and hop on the nearest train station. The name of the place we were going to is Arte Museum or ARTE M Hong Kong --depends where you're searching. I discovered it while browsing Klook for ideas .  If you're looking for something new to do in Hong Kong, check out ARTE M Museum ABOUT ARTE M HONG KONG Their website describes ARTE M as "an immersive media exhibition created by Korean digital design company d'strict". I had no idea it's a Korean chain, and they actually also have exhibits around Korea including Yeosu, Jeju, Gangneung, and Busan! ARTE M might be the typical lights show with different themed rooms we often see these days, but overall I actually enjoyed it. They were trying to achieve a full sensory experience (sight, smell, auditory), which I find creative and interesting. The theme for the whole exhibit is ETERNAL NATURE, and instead of just the photogenic play of lights, they also made sure each themed rooms have matching sensuous sounds and elegant fragrances. THE EXHIBITIONS When we went there last April, the available themed rooms were the Aurora Beach, Jungle Glow, Flower Camellia, Wave, and Flower. There are new rooms now such as Whale, Flower Wisteria, and Lost Tube--which I think is a good thing coz they keep adding something new to the lineup.  Here are some descriptions of the exhibitions that we saw: AURORA BEACH   Brave the fierce waves illuminated by a luminous aurora. Observe the surreal ocean unfold as the sparking, gravity-defying waves reach for the night sky. JUNGLE GLOW The night deepens when the darkness comes, and the sparkling living beings illuminate the jungly. meet transparent, bioluminescent creatures embracing the colors of their surroundings, and you will experience the mystery of this jungle. Love Cea's pose here hehehe FLOWER CAMELLIA   Meet the flower of love and the cycle of life. Camellia blooms when the wind cools. It has no scent, but its radiance allures the Chickadees to help the flower bloom. Once they reach the most exquisite flowering state, the camellia in full bloom falls as it is. Feel the beauty of their vibrant and poetic life, which resembles the lyrical and exquisite beauty of ours. WAVE Face the enormous waves crashing towards you and experience their resonance full of paradox. The waves undulate as if they are about to swallow the entire space, but they are also trapped in an uncanny space created by the anamorphic illusion.  Projected lights that felt realistic FLOWER   RAPESEED Feel the splendor of vitality in the strong and beautiful flowers that bloom after a long, cold winter. A magical light shines on the flowers, petals rise to the sky, and new blooms appear on the branch where the fallen flowers were. The eternal cycle of life creates this golden garden of glistening rapeseed flowers. Personally, my favorite rooms are the FLOWER and AURORA BEACH. They still overwhelmed me, again, even after seeing a lot of these lights concept exhibitions. I like the FLOWER rooms coz it felt like I am in BTS RM's Wildflower music video!
