The Revitalised Typhoon Shelter Precinct has officially opened! Located next to the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter, the revamped harbourfront space boasts a stepped-down water edge design with fence-free 'harbour steps' that will allow visitors to be closer to the water and enjoy the romantic panorama of the typhoon shelter and the Victoria Harbour.
Additionally, the public can hop on a Walla-Walla boat and join a 45-minute guided tour, where you will get to ride through the storied typhoon shelter to see fishermen's boats up close, learn about local fishing culture, catch the Noonday Gun daily salute, and even visit the Triangular Island Goddess of Tin Hau Shrine (if you're lucky!) Check out our video for a snippet of what the tour is like:
