Hong Kong Park is a small public city park on Hong Kong Island in Central. It is surrounded on one side by the skyscrapers and on the other side by Victoria Peak. But in the small 8-hectare (20 square acres) space between Cotton Tree Drive and Kennedy Road, the Hong Kong Provisional Urban Council, and the Hong Kong Jockey Club opened this park in 1991. It is free and attracts a million visits a year.
In the big garden is a pond that covers a former tennis court, waterfalls or rapids, and several important facilities including a sports facility, a big aviary, museums, a plant conservator,y and a children's playground. The park has won several awards including one from the United States Urban Services Department for its excellent design and facilities in the crowded urban area.
The aviary is a walk-through. This means that you can walk on a walkway through the tree canopy so that you can see the birds flying around inside up close. The Little Hong Kong Park has a lot of interesting attractions crammed into it and is a major highlight of a visit to Hong Kong Island.
