Tang Chi Ngong Building, Declared monument at The University of Hong Kong, China.
Tang Chi Ngong Building is a three-story structure at The University of Hong Kong with a flat roof and Shanghai plaster finishing on its exterior. The construction sits on an artificial platform and currently houses the Jao Tsung-I Petite Ecole.
The building was inaugurated in 1931 by Governor Sir William Peel following its funding from Tang Chi-ngong's donation in 1929. This founding moment reflected the university's growth during that era.
The building represents a community's commitment to Chinese education, serving as a venue where language and literature programs continue to thrive today.
The building is accessible via multiple transportation options near Pok Fu Lam Road and can be reached from various directions. Visitors should be aware that it functions as an active university facility, so access may be limited during certain times.
The stone inscriptions on the facade display 'Vniversity' instead of 'University,' reflecting Latin inscription practices from the 1920s and 1930s. This detail preserves a rare glimpse into the lettering conventions of that historical period.
