Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware
Exhibit toasts tea devotee KS Lo (29.11.2014)
More than 30 years ago, Vitasoy Group founder and then urban councillor KS Lo suggested conserving Flagstaff House - the former headquarters of the Commander of the British Forces - by turning it into the Museum of Tea Ware. Mr Lo also donated 600 tea sets collected from China and overseas to the museum.
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Asia’s first tea ware museum, a year-long exhibition “From Soya Bean Milk to Puer Tea” is being held to showcase more than 80 tea sets and chart Mr Lo’s story as a tea connoisseur and collector.
The tea drinking culture goes back several centuries in China. Each tea set reflects the unique culture of the time when it was made. Purple clay teapots are one of the most sought after collectors’ items.
Renowned Ming dynasty potter Shi Dabin crafted a teapot with such a unique and interesting shape that it sparked a big change in the way teapots were made.
“The teapot is shaped like a monk’s cap with a lotus crown. Shi Dabin started a revolutionary change in the style of making teapots, moving from large to small sized and towards a trend that emphasised personalised designs,” Hong Kong Museum of Art Curator Raymond Tang explained.
Unique designs
After Shi Dabin, potters tried to push the limits when it came to the design and craftsmanship of tea ware. A teapot titled “fish metamorphosing into dragon” that late Qing dynasty potter Shao Daheng created is an outstanding example.
“There is a Chinese saying: ‘The carp has jumped over the dragon’s gate’, meaning someone who becomes successful. An interesting feature of this teapot is when you pour from it, the dragon head decoration on the lid moves, so if you keep pouring, the dragon’s tongue will stick out,” Mr Tang said.
Purple clay actually comes in many colours, but is commonly brown or red. Visitors to the exhibition will see an eye-catching mango-shaped teapot of vivid yellows and greens. It could easily be mistaken for the real fruit, if it wasn’t for the tiny spout.
“If visitors bring their children, they will like this mango-shaped teapot made by a female potter called Jiang Rong. She created this classic shape which is widely copied now,” Mr Tang said.
Craft revolutionised
How did the potters achieve the yellow and green hues?
“Different minerals in the purple clay generate new colours during the firing process in the kiln. Potters from late Qing dynasty to the 20th century were always striving to revolutionise the craft,” the curator explained.
Nestled inside Hong Kong Park, the Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware, formerly known as Flagstaff House, was built in the 1840s. It is the oldest colonial building in Hong Kong still standing in its original spot.
A quirky title was chosen for the exhibition, “From Soya Bean Milk to Puer Tea”, to tie in the venerable tea sets’ with the museum’s 20th century benefactor, Vitasoy’s KS Lo.
“Apart from the ancient tea sets, we have also displayed some Vitasoy glass bottles. You can also visit a special corner showcasing some objects people may remember from their childhood, just like the aftertaste when you drink good tea. At the same time, it also serves as a reminder to the public that we’re celebrating the museum’s 30th anniversary,” Mr Tang added. (

Hong Kong Park Botanical Gardens
Hong Kong Park Zoological and Botanical Gardens Part 1
An oasis of green in an urban setting, Hong Kong Park is outstanding in the way its design blends in with the surrounding natural landscape. The park features an aviary, a greenhouse, the Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware, the Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre, fountains, lily ponds, playgrounds, a restaurant and even a marriage registry. The aviary features more than 80 species of birds in a well-designed tropical ‘rainforest’.
Also noteworthy is the way flowing water has been employed as a thematic motif to link the different features of the park by waterfalls, streams, ponds and cliffs made from artificial rocks. The park is also a great vantage point to take some snaps of the surrounding skyscrapers.
How to get there :
MTR Admiralty Station, Exit C1. Follow the signs up the escalator to Hong Kong Park.

細賞の屏山文物徑十三景 Ping Shan Heritage Trail, Yuen Long, Hong Kong.
Camera: Canon EOS M, Sony a5000 & Sony Mobile
The well-preserved heritage sites of Yuen Long are a nostalgic reminder of a time when this modern town in the northwest New Territories was merely a humble market village.
Wedged between the residential and commercial developments, the centuries-old ancestral halls are windows into the lives of the New Territories' early clan settlers and their cultural heritage that has formed the bedrock of Hong Kong.
The Ping Shan Heritage Trail takes you on a journey through three villages and past temples, ancestral halls and a walled village, in a historical part of Hong Kong that has been populated by the Tang people since the late Yuan dynasty (1271--1368).
走在元朗屏山文物徑，您會途經多個村落，香港唯一的古塔以及多個古意盎然的圍村、宗廟。在這些珍貴的歷史古蹟中遊歷，不但能讓您了解更多早期香港鄉村的生活文化，也能讓您窺見位於新界西北面的元朗在這數十年間的發展。

Zoological & Botanical Gardens, and Park | Hong Kong Vlog #09
If you're looking for free activities in Hong Kong, Hong Kong Park and Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens are good places to go. They're right next to each other in the Central and Admiralty districts.
I would recommend going earlier, as there are some areas that close early, such as the Edward Youde Aviary in Hong Kong Park. The Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware in Hong Kong Park does Pu'er tea making demonstrations, but only at certain times (I think they stop after lunch).
If you're not a fan of overly sweet desserts, and you like Chinese tea, I highly recommend ordering the coconut and green tea rolls with tea. I had it with Tieguanyin, but I'm sure it would go well with any Chinese tea.
The Dim Sum Restaurant I visited:
Victoria Harbour Restaurant (海港酒家)
- it's located in the Westwood
- Shek Tong Tsui, 西環卑路乍街8號西寶城2樓243號舖
