The 7 Best Government Buildings in Hong Kong Island, China

May 22, 2021 Rebbecca Marino

Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Hong Kong Monetary Authority

Reviewed By Rehman5000 - Colombo, Sri Lanka

The free public observation floor is on the 50th floor. It consists of a mini-museum, and almost 180° views of the city and bay. Definitely worth a visit, if you are tight on time. No photos allowed in the office/entrance areas, and you must wear a tag at all times (which should be returned when leaving).

Old Wan Chai Post Office

Oldest post office in Hong Kong

Reviewed By A3303XQpaulh - Huddersfield, United Kingdom

This is the oldest post office in Hong Kong. The building rightly will be preserved. Inside it has the old equipment used and still being used. The fans on the ceiling ,tables and chairs it could be a scene from Casablanca. I'm glad this will never be pulled down or used for tacky shops.
