Time Out says

Hong Kong: Through The Looking Glass is a mind-bending miniature exhibition that showcases the city through miniature replicas of buildings and neighbourhoods of the city.

Experience the magic of 40 miniature sensations of old, new and beloved Hong Kong immortalised through the precision and passion of Hong Kong artists. Key exhibits Yue Man Square and Cheung Chau Bun Festival. Yue Man Square features the old days of Kwun Tong – an industrial heartland with bright neon lights, busy traffic and neighbourhood shops. Also, spot the mega superstar movie poster on the historic Bonds Theatre. Cheung Chau Bun Festival, on the other hand, is the liveliest event on Cheung Chau Island. This unique event sees athletes race to the top of a 14-metre bamboo tower covered with lucky buns, collecting as many buns as possible to win. This traditional festival is still celebrated to date and is a must-see attraction on Cheung Chau Island.

If you're not planning to make vacation plans any time soon, here's an exhibition that will take you places and remind you of the joys of exploration and checking out neighbourhoods when travelling. It's a small world after all.
