人類民俗館是香港首個以世界民族為主題的博物館，展出來自世界各個地區的生活文化結晶共仟多件藏品，顯示出人類在不同地理環境下，如何利用及組合大自然的一草一木一石，加上創意與發明來改善生活質素，內中所蘊涵的驚人智慧與生機，及「適應」與「改善」的精神，正是現代都市人所日漸遺忘的。
大自然有時並不容易親近- 冰天雪地的嚴寒，又或者是乾燥曝晒的酷熱-
這些 都是人類要克服的困境；但大自然往往又是一個豐富多彩的寶庫，人類只要肯動腦筋，就可以從這些珍貴的資源中取得生活所需，畢竟，我們的祖先靠著這些資源，已渡過了艱困的數百萬年。
約自二百萬年前始，人類已開始利用各種到手的物料來作日常生活的輔助，隨著無數次無意之中的觀察和發現，更開始將這些物料加工製作，一代傳一代，經年累月地將技術累積和發展，所利用的物料，除了最早的獸骨、獸皮和石頭之外，更包括了木、草、動植物纖維、竹和泥土等，再配合重力，風力、水力和離心力、槓桿運作等發現，科技就如此展開。
展區博物館大多以時期或者地域來劃分展品種類，人類民俗館的藏品則以功能和對人類不同生活範疇的影響來區分，
共分為下列十二部分:

2:00pm - 3:00pm and 5:00pm - 6:00pm
Sundays and Public Holidays for public
Mondays ~Saturdays for group bookings only
Admission Fee:

Reckoned as
the first ethnology museum in Hong Kong concentrating on the living
of people from different cultures around the world, the Museum
of Ethnology shares the same vision and mission of Kerry Lake
Egret Nature Park -- to provide quality, healthy, educational
and leisure activities to Hong Kong people.
Through the
thousand plus exhibits, visitors will have no difficulties in
visualising our message and perspective - the intriguing relationship
between human and nature. We will see how we human beings, with
our wisdom and experiences accumulated over generations, can adapt
to the harsh and unforgiving environment imposed by nature. Interestingly,
this behavioural adaptation is nevertheless brought about by making
use of what nature can offer us.
Early human
beings started to use stone, animal bone and skin. Later, with
the development of finer technology, they started to use wood,
reed, bamboo, plant and animal fibre and clay. Human beings soon
recognised their lack of power and rectified by using energy source
provided by nature -- animal, hydropower and wind power. Efficient
ways of tapping and utilising this power like lever and gear were
subsequently developed.
Exhibition
Areas
Traditional ethnology museum compartmentalised their exhibits
according to geographic areas or historical eras. The Museum of
Ethnology divided the exhibits according to their functions or
their implications in different areas of human life.
另外，尚包括愛斯基摩人馴鹿骨製品、中美洲原型織布機、廿八呎長的印度洋外架獨木舟、帆船及巴布亞新畿內亞的祭神舞衣等多件珍貴獨特展品。
Exhibits
include Caribou product of Canadian Arctic Inuit, a large
weaving loom from Guatemala, Ritual dance outfit from Papua
New Guinea, 18 feet long Polynesian outrigger dugout canoe
and an 19th century wagon from American West.

人類民俗館嘗試將互動元素加入展覽之中，館內部分展品可讓參觀者觸摸和操作，另外又安排各種示範、互動遊戲和研習，讓參觀者與展品有更直接的接觸，深入體會不同民族的生活智慧。
Interactive
The Museum of Ethnology tries hard to be interactive and interesting
to visitors. Some exhibits can be touched and operated by visitors.
Live demonstrations like textile and basket weaving, pottery,
music performance will be arranged. Thorough and in-depth understanding
of the living and wisdom of different cultures can also be achieved
through interactive games and study groups.
人類民族館除不斷搜集更多獨特展品之外，亦會與世界其他地區的博物館及教育機構合作，定期舉辦特別主題的展覽會，為香港市民提供更豐富及多元化的服務。

Exhibitions
Apart from broadening the collections and changing exhibits on
a regular basis, the Museum will also cooperate with other museums
