Lady at the front desk was very knowledgeable and was happy to share interesting bits and pieces of that knowledge with us. Seriously, I couldn't work there, the constant ticking would drive me crazy! An awesome display of clocks and time pieces from kids novelty to grandfather's and every imaginable thing in between. The museum has a clock hunt great for the kids, getting them invested to actually participate in the visit. We would definitely go back.
It was a wonderful experience, the explanation was very detailed and most importantly, my sister is fluent in both Chinese and English.Passion is the best teacher, and she has a great knowledge base, having done detailed background research on each clock.The museum also has a booklet of explanations in Chinese, which is also very helpful for many visitors who do not speak English well.Had a great afternoon at the museum!
I really enjoyed the time that I was visiting the museum. The staff who can both speak English and Mandarin was very friendly and resourceful. Will recommend to my friends.

This place is amazing in the early morning when it’s still not busy. It holds a massive collection of unique clocks and other devices. The reception lady Joey is very nice to the visitors, and she has a vast knowledge about the mechanism and history of these clocks. 10/10 would recommend with her guidance.
