Victoria Peak Garden

Victoria Peak Garden is a Victorian urban park in Hong Kong set at about 300 meters elevation, featuring winding pathways, stone pavilions, circular lawns, and benches spread across multiple terraced levels. The layout preserves traditional design patterns from that era, with different elevations allowing visitors to move through the space in a planned sequence.

The site was once home to Mountain Lodge, the summer residence of British governors during Hong Kong's colonial period. The original building was later removed and replaced with this park that retains Victorian design elements from that era.

Local residents use this place on weekends to practice tai chi, walk their pets, and spend time outdoors together. The pathways and open spaces serve as a social gathering spot for people looking to enjoy their free time in this green setting.

Visitors reach the park best by taking the Peak Tram to its terminus, then walking about 20 minutes uphill along Mount Austin Road. The route is steep but manageable on foot for most people, with several viewing spots along the way.

The park retains several original Victorian design elements such as stone pillars and carved details still visible today that reflect the era of the original Mountain Lodge. These architectural features form a subtle heritage that many visitors overlook while focused on the views.
