The Hong Kong Park is an oasis of green amid the urban landscape. It features an aviary, greenhouse, the Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre, fountains, lily ponds, playgrounds, a restaurant and even a marriage registry. The aviary houses more than 150 species of birds in a carefully designed tropical “rainforest”
The Park was built at a cost of $398 million and opened in May 1991. It covers 8 hectares in Central and is an outstanding example of modern design and facilities blending with the natural landscape. More park attractions include a sort of flowing water canal, which has been employed as a thematic motif to link the different features of the park by waterfalls, streams, ponds and cliffs from artificial rocks.
