Noah's Ark Hong Kong

The basics

While the ark itself is the unquestionable highlight, visitors can also watch the surface of the sun in real time through a vacuum telescope inside the Solar Tower, play interactive games at the Treasure House, or test their physical prowess in Noah’s Adventureland ropes course. A full-day admission ticket comes with entrance to exhibits, the Solar Tower, and a 3D documentary. Or, see Noah’s Ark on a Hong Kong and Macau Attractions Pass, which includes other popular sights such as Ocean Park, Ngong Ping 360, and the Peak Tram.

Things to know before you go

• Noah’s Ark is a great option for families traveling with young children.

• Choose a basic admission ticket or a multi-attraction pass.

• Wi-Fi is available in select areas of the park.

• Remember to bring sun protection for enjoying the outdoor areas of the park.

How to get there

Noah's Ark ticket holders can take a free shuttle bus from the MOKO shopping complex in Mong Kok directly to the park’s entrance.

When to get there

Noah’s Ark is open daily throughout the year, but the best weather for visiting is from October to December and April to May. In the summer, expect hot, humid days with frequent rain. During Chinese national holidays, the park gets crowded with visitors from the Chinese mainland.

Other attractions nearby

To take advantage of Noah's Ark's location outside of downtown Hong Kong, plan a few other things to do in the area. The park is not far from Lantau Island, so outlet shopping and riding the Ngong Ping 360 cable car are nearby options. The island is also home to several beaches and hiking trails—perfect for those who need an outdoor escape from the high-rise jungle of Hong Kong.

Ways to explore

While the ark itself (and the garden) are the unquestionable highlights, visitors can also play interactive games at the Treasure House, enjoy educational activities, and frolic on bouncy castles and other play areas. A range of optional extras includes ziplines on select weekends, plus the chance to watch the surface of the sun in real time through a vacuum telescope inside the Solar Tower. Noah’s Ark Hong Kong is included in the Go City Hong Kong Pass, alongside other popular family attractions such as Ocean Park, Ngong Ping 360, and LEGOLAND®.
