The foundation stone of the Auditoria Building was laid in 1979, and the construction works started in 1984 and completed in 1989. Since its grand opening on 8 November 1989, the Cultural Centre has remained the ideal performing venue which offers a diversity of cultural and entertainment performances and activities to both the Hong Kong residents and tourists.

The Clock Tower Between the Star Ferry pier and the new Cultural Centre, the 45m clock tower is all that remains of a train station that once existed at the tip of the Kowloon Peninsula. The station – the southern terminus of the Kowloon - Canton Railway (KCR) - was built in 1916 and torn down in 1978. The clock tower was built in 1922. The original building, which had columns and was in colonial style, was too small to handle the large volume of passenger traffic. The new Kowloon KCR station, where many travellers begin their journey to China, is a huge, modern building in Hung Hom to the north-east of Tsim Sha Tsui.

TST East Water Front This has to be one of the most beautiful waterfront strolls that you can have with your date in the evening. I would say that though it does not have the interesting stores like those along the river in Singapore, it has the view to make up for it because you can see Hong Kong Island across the harbor with all its buildings. No picture can do it justice - even if you have alarge-format camera.

This particular dish is served during banquets and special events with days in advanced notice. The duck had to be dried and air was blown into the duck to separate the skin and meat. After the duck was dried, it was cooked in a specialized barrel oven which cooked the duck like a convection oven. In the Orient, when Peking Duck was ordered, only the skin of the duck was served. The meat was taken back into the kitchen to be cooked with bean sprout at an additional charge to the customer. The bone of the duck was made into duck soup which was also served at an additional charge. This was known as the Duck three ways.

Wong Tai Sin Temple The most popular temple in Hong Kong. Worshippers flocked to the temple worshipping the god Wong Tai Sin and seeking answers from him to their problems and uncertainly. There are also fortune-thllers reading people's palms and telling their futures. It was dedicated to the god of the same name. The image of the god in the main temple was brought to Hong Kong from China in 1915 and was originally installed in a temple in Wanchai until it was moved to the present site in 1921. On Sunday afternoons the temple is crowded with worshippers burning joss sticks and making offerings of plates of food. Some bring their own carefully prepared dishes, others buy oranges from the numerous fruit stalls that engulf the entrance. The incense is burned, the offerings are made and the fortune sticks are casted.
