A cultural tour of Hong Kong East: From Quarry Bay to Taikoo

#HongKongIn-depthTour The old houses and monster buildings in Quarry Bay have become popular check-in spots thanks to many movies and MVs, but its charm goes far beyond its appearance. In the morning, we visited the old ice houses and grocery stores along King's Road, which still retain the authentic human touch. Walk from the Monster Building to Taikoo Place, which has been transformed into a gathering place for local art exhibitions and creative studios. The Taikoo Sugar Factory Art Village is a cultural highlight of the area. The space converted from an old sugar factory houses galleries, design stores and cultural markets, and has hosted joint exhibitions of many local artists. Such a space allows people to wander between the modern and the old times, and is the best way to understand how the Eastern District of Hong Kong Island has transformed itself into an artistic district. Climbing up the Taikoo Back Mountain in the evening and looking out into the distance is an in-depth exploration of the blending of city and nature.
