Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Museum (東華三院文物館) was classified as Grade 1 Historic Buildings in 2010 and was set up in 1970. This builiding was in fact built in 1911. http://www.tungwah.org.hk/?content=1421
This museum is very appealing in gold and red colours, particularly inside the area of hospital.
The address is 25 Waterloo Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
The
museum is basically divided into three chambers, this main hall, and
two side chamers on both sides of this main hall. A lot of Chinese
couplets and plaques are displayed in the main chamber. Those two side
chambers are the exhibition halls of porcelain photos of
former directors, archives and relics of the Group, gifts, trophies,
graduation certificate of students, and etc. A video introducing and
recording TWGHs is broadcasting continuously.
Each part of this museum can still be kept in good condition.
Apart
from being a museum of Tung Wah Group of Hospitals, it is also a museum
of old-fashioned building materials, like floor tiles.

I
am so sorry I should have visited Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Museum
earlier. It is an impressive experience to visit this museum in Kwong
Wah Hospital. It is really not expected there is such a valuable museum
in Kowloon and it is still kept in very good condition. You are
suggested to visit if you pass by Yaumatei one day.
Opening hours: 1000-1800 Daily, Closed on Sundays and Public Holiday.
Admission fee: HK$0
Transport: About 10 minutes walk from MTR Yaumatei Station
