Details

Venture beyond the multitude of malls and discover an alluring enclave that’s brimming with character, Hong Kong Island’s largest public park and a rich history tied to its past as a former fishing village. Landmarks including Tin Hau temple, the Noon Day Gun and a bronze statue of British monarch Queen Victoria recall the territory’s Chinese and British influences.

Special landmark: 火龍徑
The Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance, which is a HK local tradition and became part of the national intangible cultural heritage. In recognition of this unique cultural activity, the new footpath was specially named the Fire Dragon Path, creating a landmark with local characteristics for Tai Hang.
