Central Police Station, Declared monument in Central, Hong Kong
The Central Police Station complex spans over 13,600 square meters and contains sixteen historical buildings constructed in colonial architectural style.
Built in 1864 and expanded in 1905, this police headquarters operated until 2005, serving as the primary law enforcement center in British colonial Hong Kong.
The buildings now form Tai Kwun Center, hosting contemporary art exhibitions, performances, and educational programs that connect Hong Kong's past with present creativity.
Located at 10 Hollywood Road, the complex offers guided tours in multiple languages and contains several restaurants, galleries, and outdoor spaces for visitors.
The site integrates modern cubic structures among preserved colonial buildings, creating spaces where contemporary art meets 19th-century architecture.
