Old Tai O Police Station, Heritage hotel in Tai O fishing village, Hong Kong
The two-story colonial structure with Italian Renaissance elements stands on a hilltop overlooking the South China Sea and traditional stilt houses.
Built in 1902 as a police station to combat coastal piracy, the building served law enforcement purposes until its closure in December 1996.
The building houses exhibitions displaying artifacts from the local fishing community and documents the evolution of law enforcement in the region.
The hotel contains nine guest rooms named after local landmarks and former police ranks, with a glass-roofed restaurant serving meals throughout the day.
The structure still bears bullet holes from a 1918 incident when an officer committed murder and suicide within the station walls.
