Kowloon Walled City Park

Park4.3 · 5 3754.2 · 498≈ 45 minFree entry6.5 km from the center

A park on the site of the legendary Kowloon Walled City, the lawless high-rise slum demolished in 1994. The following year a classical Chinese garden in Jiangnan style opened here: ponds, pavilions, bonsai and a zodiac garden. Genuine relics survive — the 1847 yamen building, the remains of the old South Gate and cannons. A small exhibit tells the story of the 'city of darkness', though today's quiet paths give little hint of its dense past.

Highlights

  • Garden on the demolished Walled City site
