Kowloon Park

Kowloon Park is a popular destination, complete with swimming pools. Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre and Health Education Exhibition and Resources Centre are housed in the preserved and restored blocks of former Whitfield Camp.

Standing on a small hill in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon Park, covering an area of 14 hectares, is a former site of a military barracks. It was open to public in 1989 and it is the most popular park in Kowloon, where many territory-wide functions are regularly held.

Kowloon Park is a welcome respite from the crowds of Tsim Sha Tsui. Located above street level, the park has extensive recreation and sports facilities, including Chinese style gardens, an aviary, a sculpture exhibit, an air-conditioned game hall and an indoor heated Olympic-sized swimming pool complex.

The major open-air attraction is the Sculpture Walk. Its displays include striking works by local sculptors and a magnificent bronze statue by Scotland's Sir Eduardo Paolozzi. Particularly inviting is also the bird lake crowded with beautiful pink lesser flamingos and ducks.

Kowloon Park is also home to the Urban Council Health Education Exhibition and Resource Center, where you can see interactive exhibits on health and Hygiene.
