James Hsioung Lee Science Building is the home to the Department of Earth Science. Its ground and first floors accommodate the Stephen Hui Geological Museum, which opened its doors to the public in 2009. The Museum is the first and only geological museum in Hong Kong.
The Museum occupies an area of approximately 500 square metres. Exhibits include a 3D interactive Earth globe model of 1.5m in diameter, which demonstrates and explains integrated Earth systems shaped and maintained by presently active geological forces. Visitors will also find the rock cycle model, a "Make Your Own Earthquake" display, and over a thousand fossils, mineral and rock specimens at the Museum.
The Museum organises regular guided tours and it is open free to the public.
