Peak Tower, Postmodern building in Victoria Gap, Hong Kong
Peak Tower is a shopping and entertainment complex in Victoria Gap on a mountain plateau. The eight-story building houses restaurants, shops, and exhibition spaces beneath a distinctive curved roof.
The current building was completed in 1997 and replaced an earlier structure from 1972. British architect Terry Farrell designed the modern structure with its distinctive form.
The Peak Tower hosts Madame Tussauds, a major tourist attraction that draws visitors from across Asia. The venue has shaped how people experience entertainment and celebrity culture in the region.
The location is easy to reach by Peak Tram, with the upper terminal inside the building. The best times to visit are early morning or late afternoon when crowds are smaller.
The building features an unusual shape that resembles an inverted wok, designed to blend with the mountainside. This distinctive architecture makes it instantly recognizable from a distance.
