Tung Wah Hospital, Historic hospital in Central and Western District, Hong Kong.
The main medical building features traditional Chinese architectural elements with Western influences, incorporating high ceilings and symmetrical window arrangements for natural ventilation.
Founded in 1870, Tung Wah Hospital became the first Chinese-operated medical institution in Hong Kong, marking a shift in local healthcare accessibility.
The hospital combines Western medical practices with traditional Chinese medicine services, reflecting the dual medical approaches present in Hong Kong society.
