Tai Kwun, located in Central Hong Kong, is a vibrant cultural centre that showcases the rich heritage of the Former Central Police Station Compound. Opened to the public in May 2018 after an extensive revitalisation project, it features 16 restored historic buildings, including the former Central Police Station, the Former Central Magistracy, and the Victoria Prison. This unique blend of heritage and contemporary architecture offers visitors a glimpse into Hong Kong's colonial past while hosting art exhibitions and cultural events. Recognized by Time magazine as one of the 'World's Greatest Places 2018' and awarded by UNESCO for cultural heritage conservation, Tai Kwun is a must-visit destination for tourists and researchers alike.
