Hong Kong Park, Hong Kong (must see)

Hong Kong Park is a public park taking up 8.16 hectares in central Hong Kong. Prior to its usage as a park, the area belonged to Glenealy Junior School. The land was gifted to the school by the government as this was the former site of the Victoria Barracks.

Hong Kong Park continues to pay homage to the area's history with a number of historic buildings onsite. Flagstaff House was built in 1846 as the home for the commander of the British forces in Hong Kong. It is the oldest Greek Revival Style building in the region. Visitors are welcome in Flagstaff House, which now houses the Museum of Teaware.

Other buildings on the premises include Rawlinson House, Wavell House and Cassels Block, a former barracks that is now home to the Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre.

The park includes a multi-level children's playground, the Olympic Square and a clock tower. There are multiple gardens, including the Central Garden with its dancing fountain, and an aviary.

The aviary has birds like the long-tailed broadbill, the wompoo fruit dove, the Victoria crowned pigeon and the great white pelican. Visitors are welcome to walk through the aviary as they gaze at the birds and trees.
