Lonely Planet review

Southwest of Star Ferry pier, the recently facelifted City Hall was built in 1962 and is still a major cultural venue in Hong Kong, with concert and recital halls, a theatre and exhibition galleries. Within the so-called Lower Block, the Hong Kong Planning & Infrastructure Exhibition Gallery (3102 1242; www.info.gov.hk/infrastructuregallery) may not sound like a crowd-pleaser but it will awaken the Meccano builder in more than a few visitors.

The exhibition follows an 18.5-metre 'walk' past recent, ongoing and future civil engineering, urban renewal and environment improvement projects, including the massive land reclamation project underway outside along the harbour side, which is leaving City Hall marooned ever further inland.
