Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens

These hillside gardens combine planted grounds, animal enclosures and colonial-era memorials above Central. Pick the sections that interest you, since the collection spreads across two linked gardens.

Why go

The Old Garden brings together aviaries and a greenhouse, while the New Garden focuses on mammals and reptiles. That split lets you shape a visit around plants or animals rather than following every path. The memorial arch and former bandstand add historical landmarks to a place whose first public stage opened in 1871.

What to look for

  • The memorial arch commemorates Chinese people who died supporting the Allies in the world wars.
  • The greenhouse contains orchids, ferns and other plant collections.

Useful to know

  • Allow about 75 minutes for a selective circuit across both gardens.
  • Check the greenhouse’s own schedule if plants are your priority.
