Description
Located in the heart of the central business district, Asia Society Hong Kong Center (ASHK) is situated at the former Explosives Magazine of the old Victoria Barracks, a site steeped in history, cultural significance and natural beauty. The 1.364 hectare site, which houses a group of four former British military buildings, was originally built by the British Army in the mid-19th century for explosives and ammunition production and storage. It was then expanded and taken over by the Royal Navy in the early 20th century.
