Kowloon Shangri-La, Hong Kong, the first hotel to open in reclaimed Tsim Sha Tsui East, is celebrating the area’s culture heritage and the community’s iconic people who have lived in the district for 40 to 70 years. Tsim Sha Tsui brims with culture, fascinating stories, off-the-beaten path spots and interesting facets.

Among the area sights are the city’s oldest military facility; the first Catholic church on Kowloon peninsula; the primary school attended by Kung Fu master Bruce Lee; and buildings with UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage status.

To celebrate, the hotel’s Cultural Heritage offer, priced from about $488 plus 10 percent per room per night, includes the following:

• Accommodations for two persons in a spacious, elegantly appointed guestroom
• Full Horizon Club benefits for two persons, including daily buffet breakfast, complimentary use of Horizon Club lounges and happy hour
• A three- to four-hour guided walking tour in Tsim Sha Tsui
• A special edition of The Hidden Gems, a commemorative book featuring carefully selected examples of the area’s cultural heritage
• Complimentary WiFi, broadband Internet access and local phone calls
• Welcome tea and fruit platter

The special is available through June 30, 2017.

“We are extremely pleased to pioneer this project and design a walking tour for our guests as part of our hotel’s 35^th anniversary celebrations. Not only does this project let us help uncover Tsim Sha Tsui’s cultural heritage, which might have escaped their eyes on their previous trips to Hong Kong, but also gives us a chance to work with people from different walks of life within the community. We have a common goal to let our visitors, and even locals, get to know the district better and from a different perspective,” said Ulf Bremer, general manager, Kowloon Shangri-La, Hong Kong.
