Mid-Levels, Residential district on Victoria Peak slope, Hong Kong.

Mid-Levels extends across the northern slopes of Victoria Peak, featuring high-rise apartments with panoramic views over Victoria Harbour and the city center.

The neighborhood emerged in the 1850s as a residential area for British colonial officials due to its elevated position away from the harbor's humidity.

The district houses multiple educational institutions, including the University of Hong Kong and several international schools that serve the multicultural population.

The Central-Mid-Levels escalator system connects the neighborhood to the business district, operating downhill during morning hours and uphill in the evening.

The Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens, established in 1862, maintains breeding programs for endangered species and houses over 600 birds within its grounds.
