A must-visit spot in Central - Tai Kwun

When I came to Hong Kong, I had to go to the check-in spot in Central, the Tai Kwun next to the escalator. The former Central Police Station is located on Hollywood Road in Central. After exiting Exit C of Central MTR Station, you can reach the escalator and follow the escalator. Or the Hong Kong Station flyover to the escalator, reach on foot. The Mid-Levels escalator in Central is a star, a photo spot for tourists. There are many restaurants with different characteristics in Tai Kwun. Visitors can go for tea, coffee, and wine. The place is empty and relaxing. Checkpoint in Tai Kwun:                   —— 1. Okan Museum of Contemporary Art The 3-storey building covers an area of ​​1,500 square meters and is a non-profit art space showcasing contemporary art exhibitions and events. There is Between Coffee, a boutique coffee shop with a Japanese Muji feel.                   —— 2. Laundry stone steps The place is empty and the staircase-style design attracts many people to come and take pictures.                   —— 3. Warden Building The different faces of Hong Kong's prisons in previous years are on display, so that visitors can learn more about Victoria's life behind bars. In addition there are different exhibitions at the Odaiba from time to time. #HongKongGood Places #LocalTravel #SummerGood Places
