The Blue House

The Blue House clinched the highest recognition of the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Awards for Cultural Heritage Conservation with the Award of Excellence, honoured for its successful revitalisation efforts that safeguarded both the architecture and the living heritage of the local community. Formerly a pre-war traditional tong lau tenement building, this 1922 structure has been transformed into a community space that celebrates the area’s rich history and culture.

Visitors can now step back in time and immerse themselves in the city’s past at the Hong Kong House of Stories or explore a variety of engaging arts and culture activities in the communal space with antique exhibitions, traditional craft workshops, live music concerts and community guided tours.
