Summertime and the living is easy. The best place to spend the lazy, hazy days with loved ones, friends and family, four-legged ones included, is the West Kowloon Art Park.
A vibrant oasis in the heart of the city
Boasting stunning views of Victoria Harbour and the iconic Hong Kong Island skyline, the family- and pet-friendly Art Park is a prime spot for city dwellers to relax and chill. Jog, bike or walk with your pet dog along the waterfront promenade, picnic on the Great Lawn, wine and dine at the harbour-side eateries, and soak up some art and culture at this urban leisure destination. There’s nothing quite like this in Hong Kong that is so easily accessible and super connected with free Wi-Fi.

Prefer some shade from the hot sun? Bring your own pop-up canopy. And for more comfort, hire an inflatable sofa. You can also rent a portable charger should your mobile phone run out of battery.

Picnic aside, make it a point to dine in at the stand-alone PANO, the upscale restaurant with an atmospheric décor and cuisine that blends Eastern flavours and Western culinary traditions. This is your best choice for a date night or special celebration where you can enjoy the glorious sunset and night view of the glittering harbour from another angle.
A visual feast for your Instagram
Check out the most incredible check-in spots to get the best shots to add to your IG story. Not to be missed is the Competition Pavilion on the waterfront promenade. Named “Growing Up”, this distinctive temporary structure with its sloped roof and slender timber columns is the winning design in the first Hong Kong Young Architects & Designers Competition. Hang out in the shade, take a rest, wait for the magic hour and snap away as the sun dips below the horizon in a blaze of colours.
