Wikipedia

 
The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre is a convention and exhibition facilities in Wan Chai|Wan Chai North, Hong Kong Island.

It is operated and managed by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council. The original building was built on land reclamation|reclaimed land off Gloucester Road in 1994 (?). The glass curtain was the world's largest by then. Its construction was financed by New World Development, with Renaissance Harbour View, Hyatt|Grand Hyatt and Harbour View Apartment on top of it.

A second phase of the centre, on an artificial island, was constructed from 1994 to 1997, featured a bird-like (some who do not like it regard it as turtle) rooftop. It has the world's largest glass-curtain, overlooking the Victoria Harbour on three sides. It is connected to the old phase with a sky bridge, and to Convention Road with two road bridges.
