Avenue of Stars, Hong Kong

In 2003, the New World Group announced spending HK$40 million to build the Avenue of Stars on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront, Kowloon Island. It was open to the public on April 27th, 2004, and then became a very popular place among tourists from home and abroad.

It is a special attraction that is modeled after Hollywood’s Avenue of Stars. It has a total length of 440 meters from the Museum of Art to the New World Centre. Here, tourists can see handprints of celebrities from the Hong Kong film industry, stalls with souvenirs, sculptures, and the full-sized statue of Bruce Lee. The names and hand prints of film stars have been inscribed on commemorative plaques along the Avenue of Stars according to chronological order. Currently, the Avenue of Stars has 110 plaques of the celebrities from Hong Kong film industry.

Also, there are nice outdoor seating, specially selected greenery along the pavement, and most importantly, stunning views of Victoria Harbour and Hong Kong Island with numerous skyscrapers. It is a great place to view Victoria Harbour and see the Symphony of Lights show at night.
