This is a 3.5-hour walking tour.

Try to explore the history and culture of a city, but with no idea where to start? This tour route will guide you to travel from the previous “City of Victoria”(Central District now) through "Statute Square", then “Old Central Police Station/Former Central Magistracy/Old Victoria Prison” to “Man Mo Temple Compound/Kung Sor”(Centre of worship). Let’s examine those scenic spots through our walking tour for just 3-4 hours.
