When it comes to Kai Tak, it's a name familiar to many. Recently, the main venue of Kai Tak Sports Park has completed the installation of its exterior panels, with plans for its official opening next year! While the sports park is still under construction, let's take a moment to admire this "Pearl of the Orient". Running along Kai Tak Bridge towards the Sky Garden, we experience the unique aviation runway design. This design attracts many running enthusiasts, offering spectacular views of Victoria Harbour and a versatile recreational area, allowing people to enjoy the beauty of the city while engaging in sports.​
