On the other side of harbour, Kowloon Park in Tsim Sha Tsui offers wooded landscapes, a small lake and aviary, a traditionally designed Chinese Garden and a "Sculpture Walk" of modern art. There is also a sports complex boasting the most popular heated indoor swimming pool in Hong Kong. The park provides a place to breathe in otherwise claustrophobia-inducing Kowloon. Just off the “Golden Mile,” the park is bordered by Nathan Road to the east, Kowloon Park Drive to the west, Austin Road to the north, and Haiphong Road to the south. Even though this park is next to Nathan Road, it still manages to offer peace and tranquility. On Sundays, you can see all sorts of people hanging out at parks, talking, practicing their dances, eating, exercising, and trying out their Kung Fu. Check out some of the sculptures on the east side of the park! There is a Sculpture Walk where local artists exhibit their masterpieces. The garden is open daily from 6:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Admission is free except Swimming Pool and Sports Centre.

Directions: Right on Nathan Road at the north west corner of Tsim Sha Tsui MTR stop.
