Mei Ho House - A nostalgic characteristic building. A museum themed on public housing in Hong Kong.

About one Christmas Eve in 1953, a ruthless fire caused the loss of more than 50,000 residents in the Shek Kip Mei squatter area. In order to resettle a large number of victims in a short period of time, eight six-storey public houses were built at that time. The place that HongKongFootprint.com will visit this time is a museum that was converted from one of these six-storey public houses.

"Mei Ho House" in Sham Shui Po, Kowloon is one of the six-storey public houses built for this purpose in the past. With the completion of "Mei Ho House", it also marked a change in Hong Kong's public housing policy and accelerated the development of the public housing policy in the future.
