Harcourt Garden, Urban park in Admiralty, Hong Kong.
Harcourt Garden is a public green space in Admiralty set among modern office buildings and commercial towers. It contains planted areas, walking paths, seating zones, and a mix of trees and grass that create shaded and open sections.
The land where this garden now sits once held military structures including Wellington Battery and a Military Hospital. These installations were cleared away to make room for development and eventual conversion into a park.
The garden functions as a midday retreat for office workers seeking a break from surrounding high-rise buildings. It serves as a social space where visitors encounter both locals and colleagues sharing a moment away from busy streets.
The garden sits right next to Admiralty MTR station, making it easy to reach by public transport or from surrounding office buildings. The pathways are clearly marked and lit, and there are several entry points from different directions.
The garden was relocated onto the rooftop of the MTR station building, creating an elevated green space above the transit infrastructure. This unusual arrangement allows visitors to rest among plants while standing directly above the busy transportation hub.
