The newly opened pavilion has directly entered Hong Kong's new hea site. This Monument and art gallery has a strong Victorian style, the predecessor of the 19th century judicial center, including the former Central Police Department and Dooli Prison. On the high-rise island of Hong Kong, the pavilion is like an isolated courtyard, with red brick walls and granite floors intact. The new building grafted by Herzog & de Meuron, a Swiss architectural firm, gives more pioneering impression to the old complex. Going to the pavilion is not only about architecture, but also about the main contemporary art exhibitions and performing arts, as well as the first TASCHEN bookstore in Asia, as well as the " of Louis Vuitton, the Objets Nomades ", which is limited this month, and the home exhibition.

    Immerse in the arts vibe at the once prison and police headquarters of Hong Kong. Brave through the years of history, the heritage building sits well with lots of cafes and artisanal stores in it. Great for an afternoon of exploring!

    5/5Outstanding

    The historic heritage place right in the heart of Hong Kong where you could witness the first Magistrate court and the built in prisoners cells in order to maintain laws and orders by the British. Entrance is free with guide tour.

    This time come with family after birthday celebration in Central. Nice weather in Decemeber and not so cold yet which is very good for photo taking and visiting the museum. Elderly have alot to talk about when seeing those exhibits.

    3/5Average

    A nice open area near the core of Central for leisure, sightseeing and dining. This was previously a prison development now revitalized for public use and welcome local and foreign visitors to explore the heritage and history of the place .
