Ma Wan Park, Educational theme park in Ma Wan Island, Hong Kong

Ma Wan Park is a 20-hectare park on Ma Wan Island, opened in phases from 1 July 2007, with a 27,000-square-metre, five-storey Noah's Ark building, a Nature Garden with trails among thousands of retained native trees, and themed gardens such as the Fern Garden and Azalea Garden. A pale grey spiral seashell sculpture sits on a circular paved plaza near the entrance.

In 1994 Sun Hung Kai Properties proposed a gated theme park with five zones, and a 1997 land-exchange deal tied its budget to the Park Island project. In 2003 the plan changed to a nature park with Noah's Ark, and the first phase opened on 1 July 2007. The government granted the site to Ma Wan Park Limited in 2021, backdated to 2008.

The park's name comes from Ma Wan Island, where the old village was to be renovated in the second phase as shops, restaurants and an art village. The first phase opened on 1 July 2007 with the Nature Garden, followed by Noah's Ark in May 2009 and the Solar Tower in July 2012. The ark garden displays 67 pairs of animal sculptures.

The site is best explored on foot since there are multiple paths and different sections to discover across the grounds. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and allow time for a leisurely walk through both the modern attractions and the historical areas.

Noah's Ark, a five-storey, 270,000 sq ft structure, holds a 520 kg meteorite found in Argentina, the largest space rock displayed in Hong Kong, and a piece of petrified wood from Mount Ararat in Turkey presented as a possible ark remnant. Visitors may touch smaller meteorite fragments.
