SPD4459 - Destination 8 – [山頂 The Peak] 香港杜莎夫人蠟像館 Madame Tussauds Hong Kong

上次提過可以在中環乘搭纜車到山頂遊覽。除了出名的山頂夜景外，其實香港杜莎夫人蠟像館也是一個值得一去的地方。
Remember the last few blog that we can take The Peak tram to The Peak from Central?
Apart from the night view, The Peak is also famous for the Madame Tussauds Hong Kong!!
Never heard of it? Keep watching!

全球第一間杜莎夫人蠟像館設於英國倫敦，專門展覽名人蠟像的蠟像館。
2000年在香港設立第一個亞洲區分館，除了展出大約100尊中外名人的蠟像，包括歷年來及現任的中國國家領導人(胡錦濤、習近平)、體壇名將(姚名、碧咸)外，也加入了不少香港元素，展出著名歌影紅星的蠟像(已故藝人張國榮、劉德華)。

The first  Madame Tussauds located in London,r UK. It shows world famous people's wax man figures in the museum.
In 2000, Madame Tussauds established its first Asia chain of wax museums in Hong Kong.
The house shows nearly 100 wax figures pf internationally know personals, including Chines politicians(e.g. Hu Jintao, Xi Jinping), athletes(e.g. Yao Ming, David Beckham),etc. And of course, lots of HK Glamours(e.g. Leslie Cheung, Andy Lau)!

杜莎夫人蠟像館其實頗貴的，如果想要免費入貴的就有一個辦法，但只適用於持有香港永久居民身份證或香港臨時居民身份證的朋友。
只要在2015年1月31日前，在生日當天或前後天到香港杜莎夫人蠟像館就可以免費入場了! 而同行的三位家人或朋友也可以以半價入場! 不錯吧?

In fact, I think the entrance fee is quite expensive. Here is a method that can enter the Madame Tussauds Hong Kong for free! However, it is only for HK residents.
On your birthday or the day before or after birthday, you can visit the Madame Tussauds Hong Kong for free before 31st Jan 2015! Besides, maximum three of your family members or friends can enjoy a 50% off on their admission tickets. Sounds great, right?

生日免費入場
Free entrance on birthday =]

除了和成龍、奧巴馬和習近平合照要另外收費外，在館內可以隨意跟蠟像拍照。可以跟明星，歷史物們合照的感覺真的很奇秒!

Apart from Jackie Chan's, Obama's and Xi Jinping's wax figure, others are free to take photos.

Taking photos with lots of super stars and historical heroes are unforgettable!

I really love Madame Tussauds Hong Kong!

除了展示蠟像外，館內也有介紹製造蠟像的過程。當中涉及的程序相當複雜，要量度、選色、植入頭髮、眼球、牙齒等等，認真的態度很令佩服!
In addition, the museum also has a corner to introduce the process of making wax figures to visitors.
The procedures are incredibly complicated! All the measurements, selection of skin tone, iris color, hair, teeth and so on need to be very accurate. I am really appreciate the hard work of the artists.

眼球也有很多種呢! There are various choices of iris colors!
