Hoh Fuk Tong Centre

Hoh Fuk Tong Centre, Declared monument in Tuen Mun District, Hong Kong.

Description

Hoh Fuk Tong Centre is a declared monument in Tuen Mun featuring the Morrison Building with Art Deco design elements, Shanghai plaster finishing, and a green glazed tiled roof adorned with dragon ornaments. The structure blends Western and Chinese architectural features through its red brick construction and distinctive roof decorations.

History

General Cai Tingjie built this villa in 1936, which later became the Dade Institute from 1946 to 1949 under direction by Chinese leadership. This transition marked a significant shift in the site's purpose and function.

Culture

The center served as a gathering place where Chinese scholars and students engaged in intellectual exchange during a transformative era. This role shaped educational development in the region during that formative period.

Practical

The site is located at 28 Castle Peak Road in the San Hui section and is easily accessible via the Light Rail at Hoh Fuk Tong station. Public transport makes visiting this declared monument straightforward and convenient.

Did you know?

The building features a rare green glazed tiled roof topped with artfully crafted dragon ornaments that stand out in local architecture. This combination of traditional Chinese roof symbols with Western architectural styles creates an uncommon design approach seen in few comparable structures.
