Among them, the department plans to open a variety of recreational facilities under its charge on July 1, including badminton courts, billiard rooms, water facilities, etc., free for the public to use.
In addition, the LCSD also held a large-scale exhibition of "Eight Greats - Finding Dragons" at the Science Museum on July 8. The fossils of eight dinosaurs were exhibited for the first time in Hong Kong. The integrity of the dinosaur fossils was as high as 50%.

A number of large-scale exhibitions will be staged in museums under the LCSD. Among them, the Hong Kong Science Museum will hold a large-scale exhibition of "Eight Greats - Finding the Dragon" from July 8 to November 16.
At that time, precious fossil specimens of eight dinosaurs will be exhibited, as well as a multimedia interactive experience, so that the audience can understand the significance and enlightenment of prehistoric creatures and dinosaurs that existed hundreds of millions of years ago to human beings.
To tie in with the large-scale exhibition, the LCSD also organises a wide range of educational and public activities, including the "Sleep with the Dragon", where citizens stay overnight at the Science Museum.
From May this year, the Leisure and Cultural Department will organise enriching cultural, artistic and recreational activities to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the HKSAR.
