🇭🇰Hong Kong Art Prison! ? Don't miss this hidden gem in Hong Kong❗️

Tai Kwun was once the location of three government agencies: the Central Police Station, the Central Magistrates' Courts and the prison. It has now become a comprehensive historical and cultural park and a statutory monument in Hong Kong. Here, you can not only learn about the architectural design and history of the Hong Kong Police Station, but also see different art exhibitions, which are full of literary and artistic atmosphere. 🎨 ❣️Recommendation reason: In the famous core area of ​​Hong Kong "Central", there is a venue called "Tai Kwun" which was transformed from the former Central Police Station. After the opening of this Victorian-style building complex in May last year, it has become a new landmark that young people in Hong Kong must check in. ✨Highlights: Tai Kwun is not only a witness to history, but also a modern display. It retains retro buildings, mottled stone brick walls, and neon lights of the past, but in sharp contrast is the modern JC CUBE Jockey Club Art Square, designed by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron in 2018. It has now become an important contemporary art space in Hong Kong. 💙Recommendation: The three buildings that must be visited when you come to Tai Kwun are the Police Headquarters Building, the Barracks Building and the Jockey Club Art Square. The exhibition hall of the Police Headquarters Building introduces the timeline of the police station's development, and there are many small models for visitors to see the police station's information desk, barber shop, restaurant, bar, etc. at that time. The barracks building is Victoria Prison. The small and dark cells are now equipped with projections to show the living scenes of the people in the prison at that time. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :
