    Cultural museums are important to promote a country's diverse cultural heritage but in India there is a lack of such spaces that have a significant impact on society. As a result, many cultural forms are on the verge of extinction or limited to small parts of the country. The new Hong Kong Palace Museum is conceived as both a civic hub and landmark for Hong Kong, connecting new generations to China's cultural history through its over 900 artifacts from the Forbidden City displayed in a 30,000 square meter building inspired by the Palace Museum's central axis concept and reinterpreting ancient Chinese spatial concepts in a contemporary style. The museum's design embraces bringing Chinese heritage to modern audiences through its architecture and digital displays.

    and knowledge of history, as well as its significance ➔ Literature, dance, song, drama, arts, and other

    future. Objects collected by history museums practiced on a small scale in a few parts.
