The must-see villa for Hong Kong people

Haw Par Villa is one of the few remaining buildings in Hong Kong that combines Chinese and Western styles, and is a cultural heritage of great historical value and a Grade I historical building monument. You must join the public guided tour to visit the upper and other floors of Haw Par Villa, which also provides a detailed introduction to the history of the Wu family, the establishment of Haw Par Villa and Haw Par Garden. What is worth appreciating is the "Ten Kings Hall" sculpture, which is very realistic in design, the Palladian staircase and porch, and the moon-shaped door made of Italian stained glass, which leads to the original Tiger Balm Garden. There are two tigers guarding the door. Chinese architectural elements with red walls and green tiles can be seen on the rooftop upstairs. #2022exhibition #Haw Par Villa #Causeway Bay #Tai Hang #localtravel #goodoutdoors #goodsummerplaces #goodplaceshongkong #wintertravel

Haw Par Villa| #holidaygoodplace #hongkonggoodplace It was announced earlier that it will cease operations on December 1, and the Haw Par Villa historical building will also be returned to the government on the same day. The future fate of the villa is unknown! Before it officially ceases operations, Haw Par Music Garden will still open its lobby and gardens to the public for free. Everyone should remember to seize the opportunity to see this Grade I historical building that combines Chinese and Western styles and take a journey back in time! Haw Par Villa|3 weeks left to closure! Free admission to Grade I historic buildings Haw Par Mansion was built in 1935 as the former residence of businessman and "Tiger Balm King" Wu Boon Hu. An astronomical sum of $16 million was spent on its construction, so the villa was a palace-style house that symbolized wealth and power at the time. Many Hong Kong people are most impressed by its "Tiger Tower" and the relief carvings of the Ten Courts of Hell, commonly known as the "Eighteen Layers of Hell", such as "Falling into the Oil Wok" and "Hooking the Ligand Tendons". At that time, many parents would bring their children to visit and warn their children not to make mistakes. This has become a childhood memory for many Hong Kong people!
