Nestled within the illustrious confines of the Hong Kong Palace Museum, a bastion of cultural eminence, rests a culinary marvel spanning 13,600 square feet, welcoming approximately 800 patrons. This exquisite venue seamlessly marries the elegance of East and West, offering an opulent sanctuary specialising in hosting wedding banquets while providing respite for museum-goers amidst their artistic sojourns.



An aura of refinement greets guests at the entrance, where a backlit bronze and brass metal mesh screen stands as a herald to their arrival, beckoning them into an enchanting realm. Stepping into the reception hall, a mosaic of greyish-brown geometrically patterned marble flooring meets the eye, complemented by scallop-shaped columns and luminescent backlit alabaster wall panels. A marble reception desk, adorned with understated opulence, stands as a testament to sophistication while a raindrop-like chandelier casts an ethereal glow, infusing the space with luxury and tranquility.



The banquet halls, boasting expansive vistas of the panoramic Victoria Harbour, enchant guests with a harmonious convergence of cultures. An abstract, red-toned carpet, resonating with the jubilant hues symbolizing happiness in Chinese culture, blankets the floor, while a resplendent floral-shaped chandelier in the main hall embodies notions of grace, auspiciousness, and felicity.



In a masterful fusion of modernity and tradition, a contemporary Chinese lattice screen adds depth and dimension, enhancing the layered aesthetic. The ceiling rails, thoughtfully positioned with movable screens, afford adaptability, enabling the space to effortlessly transform for diverse events, be it a joyous birthday celebration or a dignified annual dinner.



The stage, adorned with dual-layered curtain backdrops, offers a choice: a regal burgundy red curtain for an eastern allure or an off-white counterpart for a more Western ambiance, ensuring versatile atmospheres. Meanwhile, the bride room, adorned with chinoiserie wallpapers bedecked in delicate floral patterns, exudes timeless romance and opulence, providing a sanctuary for moments of quiet reflection.



Equipped with cutting-edge high-definition LED screens and sophisticated lighting, this culinary haven within the museum seamlessly intertwines cultural reverence with contemporary allure, crafting an environment where luxury meets leisure, and where the spirits of East and West harmoniously converge.
