From this place , the sunset viewing point can be easily approached in matter of seconds. This point at the Western portion of HK facing Lamma Island , Peng Chau and Hei Ling Chau . A great place for watching sunset in the vast openness of the sea. It has this advantage because it is about 45 M above sea level with an unobtrusive view. Worth mentioning is that Hei Ling Chau was the island isolated for treating Leprosy in the 1960s. Many photographers come here for good pictures. It was visited on July-23-2022.

it’s a grade 3 historic site and whichever was originally part of the Jubilee Battery! After the WW2, it was converted into a British Army Royal Engineers’ mess and quarters. It became the Victoria Rd Detention Center under the HK Police Force for a period of time too. A Heritage Interpretation Centre will be opened very soon for telling its stories to the public soon. 香港三級古蹟 銀禧炮台其中一部份丶 皇家工兵部隊基地、 域多利道扣押中心丶 文化保育 文物展示中心 不錯不錯

A world class campus for EMBAs. Chicago Booth's only purpose built campus outside USA. Campus built on a heritage site (Jubilee Battery).

A good venue for panoramic Hong Kong harbour or sea view and a good heritage site : the gun emplacement, the exhibition room.

A heritage building converts to a campus. Open to public and you can enjoy the beautiful sunset there.
