Objectives:
To help children learn the history of Hong Kong and the important historical events by guiding them to visit those historical sites.

Introduction

Although Hong Kong is a tiny city, there are quite a lot interesting histories of Hong Kong and also many important historical sites such as Kowloon Walled City, Terrace of the Sung Kings, and the Clock Tower, etc. Some have significant influence in the Chinese history and some reveal the colonial era of Hong Kong. Nonetheless, all of these worth us learning and exploring them. During the tour, children are guided to visit these sites and are motivated to ask question and explore the sites on their own. Apart from the knowledge of the history, children can also learn to communicate and make friends with peers, which is a very important and valuable skill that they cannot learn it from the textbooks.
