Even though it is not the only time of exhibiting Hong Kong in Britain, Hong Kong Section at Wembley was the first comprehensive exhibition of Hong Kong in Britain and drew the most attention among the visitors and media in the British Empire. Hong Kong Section at Wembley was the only comprehensive exhibition of Hong Kong in Britain during the colonial period. The organisation process, the choices of exhibits, the responses in Britain and in Hong Kong illustrate Britain’s relationship with her colonies and Hong Kong’s relationship with Britain and China in the 1920s.
