Why is Hong Kong’s “Blue House” so special?

#summervacay If you’re looking to experience Hong Kong’s local stories, not just take pretty photos — this is the place to go. 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Must-Visit Highlights: 1️⃣ A Color with a Story The Blue House wasn’t always blue! In the 1990s, it was painted blue simply because there was leftover paint — an accidental makeover that turned it into a photo hotspot. 2️⃣ Living Heritage Unlike many old buildings that become empty museums, the Blue House keeps its original residents. It follows a “People & Place” approach to conservation — old and new neighbors co-create a living community. 3️⃣ UNESCO Award-Winning In 2017, the Blue House Cluster won the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Award for Cultural Heritage Conservation — the first of its kind in Hong Kong! 💰 Free Entry ⏰ Check opening times before visiting 📮 72–74A Stone Nullah Lane, Wan Chai, Hong Kong Island 🚇 MTR Wan Chai Station, Exit A3 — 3 min walk 🚎 Take a bus or tram to Queen’s Road East or Kennedy Road and walk from there 🔔 Tip: 🤫 It’s still home to real families — be respectful 🏠 It’s not just a museum, it’s a living neighborhood #travel#thingstodo #seascapes #hong_kong #china #myitinerary
