Art Park Behind Cattle Depot Artist
Cattle Depot Art Park is relatively new. It was opened in September 2019, and located just behind The Cattle Depot Artist Village (ex-Ma Tau Kok Animal Quarantine Depot).
The Park offers recreational and cultural exposure by providing elements of the history of the Cattle Depot itself. It has included rain shelters with benches and an amenity lawn area. In addition to these facilities, there are also public toilets and a baby-care room.
Brown brick paving blocks and walls make this 6000 square meters classic and beautiful. As it is open to the public from 6:30 AM to 10:30 PM, many people come in the early morning for light exercise while enjoying the serene and classic art park.
