Hong Kong Tai Kwun | The Warden's House with murals

The Warden's Building is one of the earliest buildings built in the Tai Kwun complex. It was built in 1862 and is designed in the style of a residential house. It was originally used as the main entrance to Victoria Prison and the warden's quarters. Later, the prison's entrance was converted into an indoor space and was also converted into a chapel. At the beginning of the church's revitalization, the team discovered murals here and restored them. The murals on the walls are covered with a pattern called a "flat-headed cross," a common symbol in Roman Catholic churches. When you visit Tai Kwun, you may want to take a look at these murals that have been preserved to this day. 📍 Prison Warden's Building Address: Block 10, Tai Kwun, 10 Hollywood Road, Central #GreaterBayAreaAttractions #WeekendTour #LocalTour #GoodPlacesForFamily #GoodPlacesInHongKong #HongKong #CheckIn

Because I am a Hyatt member, there are flash discounts when coupons are issued, so this time I came back for a staycation. It was still a very pleasant vacation. Going to the 23rd floor to have lunch and swim in the swimming pool at noon is also a good place to relax. It is a good choice to stay in Hong Kong for consumption without spending time on the plane. I hope there will be another flash sale when the consumption is released next month. #staycation
