The Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens are the oldest public gardens in Hong Kong. They were found as a Botanic Garden in 1871 and renamed in 1975 to reflect the increased commitment to zoological exhibits.

The Gardens now have an area of 5.6 hectares and are divided into two distinctive parts, the Old Garden to the east and the New Garden to the west.
Without doubt, the Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens will continue as not only the oldest but also the most progressive public garden in Hong Kong and will continue to consolidate its international reputation in zoological terms in future years as the contribution to the conservation of nature.
On top of the zoological and botanical attractions, visitors can also enjoy a stroll down the heritage trail to explore seven special features of historical importance, namely the Stone Pillars & Flight of Steps at the Former Main Entrance, the Memorial Arch (Chinese War Memorial), the Bronze Statue of King George VI, the Pavilion (Former Band Stand), the Entrance Gate Pillars on Garden Road, the Flight of Steps leading to Fountain Terrace and the Fountain, and savor the stories of the Gardens.
