Kai Tak Sky Garden - a new city landmark
Description
The recently opened Kai Tak Sky Garden - a new landmark in the city - offers a high-quality public space. Located at the former Kai Tak runway, the striking, 2-hectare sky garden pays homage to Hong Kong's famous former airport, with aviation-themed designs seen in the seats, footpaths, and a multi-function landscaped deck that resembles an aircraft.
The elevated deck offers three plazas: Garden Plaza, Lawn Plaza and Fountain Plaza, each featuring unique themes. Gardens with 80 species of trees and shrubs and sidewalks lined with plants that change colour with the seasons enhance the attractiveness of the place. Other highlights include lookout galleries offering spectacular views of Victoria Harbour, a water play area, and a multi-purpose amphitheatre for cultural and recreational activities. The project is part of the Kai Tak facelift.
