In an exciting development for cultural collaboration, the Secretary-General of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities, Mohamed Ismail Khaled, and Louis Ng, Director of the Hong Kong Palace Museum, recently signed a partnership agreement to launch a remarkable exhibition titled “Ancient Egypt Unveiled: Treasures from Egyptian Museums.” This collaboration, which took place in Hong Kong amid notable Egyptian and Chinese cultural figures, promises to be a breathtaking showcase of history, art, and archaeology.
Set to open its doors from November 18, 2025, to August 31, 2026, the exhibition will feature a dazzling array of around 250 artifacts sourced from top Egyptian museums. Visitors can look forward to seeing extraordinary pieces from renowned institutions such as the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir, the Luxor Museum of Ancient Egyptian Art, the Suez National Museum, and the Sohag National Museum.
What makes this exhibition particularly captivating is its inclusion of recently unearthed artifacts from the Saqqara archaeological site, known for its rich history and significance to ancient Egyptian civilization. The event will also offer a taste of curated treasures currently exhibited in Shanghai, enriching the experience for attendees with insights into the splendor of Ancient Egypt.
The exhibition will center around three intriguing themes: Royal Egypt, the Era of Tutankhamun, and the Archaeological Discoveries from Saqqara. Each theme provides a unique lens through which to explore Egypt’s illustrious past, from the grandeur of its pharaohs to the groundbreaking archaeological advancements that continue to shape our understanding of ancient civilizations.
This partnership not only underscores the deep cultural connections between Egypt and China but also highlights Egypt’s commitment to preserving and showcasing its vast historical heritage. As global interest in ancient cultures continues to grow, this exhibition is poised to draw considerable attention and appreciation from audiences in Hong Kong and beyond.
