Place to visit

 Murray House 

  • Murray House is a Victorian-era building in Stanley in Hong Kong with over 150 years history. IT was originally built in Central in 1846 as officers’ quarters of the Murray Barracks during the early years of British rule. The building was relocated to the Stanley in 2001.

     


    Nowadays, Murray House already became the landmark of Stanley. You can visit the Hong Kong Maritime Museum located on the ground floor of Murray House. There are also few exquisite restaurants at the upper floors. It is also a hot photo shooting point.

The have all kind of souvenirs rich in Chinese favor, like linen Chinese embroidered clothes, bags, silk garment, jewellery, ornament etc. There are a few gallerys selling paintings. I found some nice paintings in there too.
