Sculpture Garden at Kowloon Park

Teri and I walked about Kowloon Park, just a few blocks north of our hotel.  Per Hong Kong's Leisure and Cultural Services Department,

"In the 1830s, some westerners found that Victoria Harbour was         an ideal anchorage place for vessels. At that time, the site of the later Kowloon Park was an important military base over-looking the Harbour. In 1861, the British occupied Kowloon peninsula and named the base as Whitfield Barracks.

Kowloon Park was officially opened on 24 June 1970 by the then Governor, Sir David Trench. In 1989, the park was redeveloped at a cost of $300 million, which was funded by the then Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club." During our walk, we came across an outdoor sculpture garden.  Here are some photos of the various sculptures in the garden.
