香港遊踪 #8 – 香港科學館玩遊戲|Hong Kong To Walk #8 – Hong Kong Science Museum playing games

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Hong Kong to walk volume 8. Remember last time we have visit the Hong Kong Science Museum for a special exhibition “Eternal Life – Exploring Ancient Egypt”? Not sure have you guys gone too deep on it. Of course, after all this hard time to come to the Hong Kong Science Museum, we will not just visit the special exhibition. We will also visit the permanent exhibitions. (Actually it is because the ticket price include the permanent exhibitions, it would be wasted if we leave the permanent exhibitions out)

大家好！歡迎來到香港遊踪的第八步。很感謝大家一直對這個系列的支持，上一次我們去了香港科學館看一個特別的展覽─“永生傳說─透視古埃及文明”，不知道大家有沒有沉迷當中？當然，難得的來到科學館，我們當然不可能只是看特別展覽就回去啦，肯定要也看一看它的常設展覽啦。(其實是因為門票已經包了常設展覽的入場費，不看的話有點可惜啦)

​The method to visit the Hong Kong Science Museum has been mentioned in my previously post, you can refer by the above link if you would like to check. And now, let me straight into the topic to introduce the permanent exhibition to you. The permanent exhibition was designed by different section/hall, including Biodiversity Gallery, Life Sciences, E&M Gallery, Science News Corner, Sound, Food Science, Home Technology, Transportation, Children's Gallery…And please let me to introduce some to you.

前往香港科學館的方法，我在上一個帖子中已經介紹過了，大家如果不清楚的話可以按上面的連結參考一下。而現在就讓我直接的進入主題，為大家介紹一下科學館的常設展覽吧。首先，科學館的常設分為很多不同的展覽廳，包括生物多樣性展廳、生命科學、磁電廊 、科訊廊、聲學、食品科學、家居科技、交通、兒童天地等等，就為我向大家介紹其中一些展覽廳吧。

The first hall I visited is the Biodiversity Gallery. The purpose of this hall is to increase the public awareness for the importance of biodiversity conservation. The museum hopes to promote public appreciation of biodiversity conservation and of making proper changes to the public lifestyles through different specimen, scene and games.

首先，我參觀了生物多樣性展廳，這個展覽廳的目的在於提高大眾認識生物多樣性的重要，透過不同的標本、場景跟遊戲來促進大眾對生物多樣性的欣賞跟認識，提高他們的保育意識。

​
​

​Then I came to the Life Sciences area, in this hall, the exhibition covers different area of life science including prehistoric life, human and various animal bones structure, human bodies and functions of the organs. And the exhibitions have setup different games and experiments to let the visitors explore the mysteries of life sciences.

然後就輪到生命科學區，這個展覽廳包含了各種不同範疇的生命科學，包括古代生物、人類及各種動物的骨骼、人體結構及各種器官的功能、傳統和現代醫學上的理念。並以各種小遊戲及實驗，讓參觀者探索生命的奧妙。

​

And then I visited the E&M Gallery, in this area, there are a lot of different interactive exhibits designed to show you the different phenomenon of electricity and magnetism. The main idea is to let the public understand the principles behind the exhibits in a simple and light-hearted way. You can understand the source of electric power, theory of why human body is a conductor, and how a motor work by different games in the hall.

然後我就到了磁電廊，這個展覽廳設計了很多不同的互動展品，展示磁與電的各種現象。概念是希大眾透過輕鬆的手法來探討電與磁的性質及基本原理。大家可以透過不同的遊戲來了解電力的來源、人體可傳導電流、電動機的運作原理等等。

​

At last, I visited the Children's Gallery, it is a new hall operated this year. The design concept is “Playing is the best way for children to learn about and discover the world around them”. The exhibits encourage children to exert their imagination, and also encourage them to cooperate and complete missions together.

最後，我到了兒童天地，它是今年新開設的一個展覽館。它的設計理念是“遊戲是學習與發掘新事物的最佳方式”，透過展品讓兒童發揮想像力，亦鼓勵兒童互相合作，一起完成任務。

​
​

And I bet the most attractive exhibit here is the Big Kids’ Work Site. This is actually a simulated large complex working site, to let children to have a role play game. The work site includes an unfinished house which required children to use different tools to help them finish the building, including crane, conveyor belt, wheel barrow, etc. The concept for the exhibit is to enables children to develop their social skills, and to let them learn the concept of engineering work for building a house

而兒童天地最吸引的展品大概就是這個了─小小工程師。這其實是一個模擬大型工地的展品，讓小朋友參加角色扮演遊戲。工地上有一間只有支架的房屋，小朋友要利用不同的工具去協助他們砌建房屋，例如起重機、輸送帶及手推車等。這展品的設計概念為幫助兒童發展他們的社交技巧，並讓他們明白建造房屋工程的概念。

​
One thing to remind you guys is to play the Big Kids’ Work Site, you have to take a chips. So, remember to take it earlier.

而大家要注意的地方就是要玩小小工程師的話是需要取籌的，所以大家記得要提早取定籌號。

​

The game is actually very simple; basically it is just transporting bricks.

而這個遊戲的玩法很簡單，基本上就是不停的在搬磚。

​

​

All kinds of method for brick transporting

各種搬磚。

​

​

Kids and adult transport together.

大人小孩都在搬磚

​

In conclusion, the Hong Kong Science Museum is a very nice place. It use the most simplest way to let us interact with different science topic. And it designed different game to let us know more for the theory. I do suggest this place to all age.

總括而言，科學館的確是一個很不錯的地方，它用了最簡單的方法讓大家接觸各種科學知識；亦透過各種不同的遊戲跟活動加深大家對科學的了解。我是十分推介各位大朋友跟小朋友一起去這裏發掘一下。
