Introduction

Wah Ha Estate  was converted from the Chaiwan Factory Village building. The building is 5 stories high. The building was completed in June 1959. It is the only remaining H-shaped factory building in Hong Kong. It was rated as second by the Antiquities Advisory Committee in 2013. Class-class historical building, the reconstruction project preserves the cultural relics of the factory building as much as possible. In 2017, it won the honor of the Hong Kong Institute of Architects in the Architectural Design Forum and the Grand Prize of the Hong Kong Institute of Architects.

Accessibility description

There are multiple barrier-free facilities, including entrances and exits, ramps, passages, and accessible toilets, etc. The design fully considers the needs of wheelchairs/persons with reduced mobility. Most of the uneven places are equipped with ramps, and the ramps are relatively flat, so wheelchair users can easily get on and off.

 FG Tips

The entrance to the underground exhibition hall of Wah Ha Estate is relatively narrow, so wheelchair friends must be especially careful.
