HONG KONG – Central and Sheung Wan are two of the oldest neighborhoods in Hong Kong, reflecting a history of over a 100 years, as well as recently being transformed into one of the hippest districts in the city. This is an area where past and present, East and West, coexist and collide.

There are numerous colonial monuments, temples, art galleries, antique stores, street art displays, restaurants, rooftop bars, local delicacies, and many other hidden gems at every turn, representing the diverse elements of heritage, art, culture and dining.

Wanting to encourage more people to visit this dynamic district, Hong Kong Tourism Board has revived the area known as “OLD TOWN CENTRAL” by introducing people to different thematic routes to explore including: Tasting Hong Kong; Crazy for Art; Time Traveler (heritage); and Treasure Hunt. 

To facilitate this experience, art-inspired QR Codes have been displayed at various locations within the district. Each element of design used to create the exclusive QR Codes are inspired by the real-life experiences on offer such as visiting a temple or drinking traditional Chinese Tea. 

Once scanned, the QR Code takes you to a web page from where one can access the information to the four routes and locations for culture, art, heritage and dining and this is when the adventure truly begins.
