Shek O has one of the best beaches in Hong Kong.

The hotel was also demolished in the 1980s, and on the site today is The Repulse Bay, a luxury apartment complex; it has captured some of the old-world style in its renowned restaurants with verandas overlooking the lawn and beach. The complex includes the famous blue apartment building with the hole in its midst.

Tip

The large blue apartment building with the big square hole in the middle is the best-known sight in Repulse Bay. Some say the hole is a passageway for the heavenly dragon to come down from the mountains; others say it was put there to generate good feng shui; still others say it was just the architect’s attempt at being funky. A replica of the old Repulse Bay Hotel stands in front of the apartment block, preserving a soupcon of grace from days gone by.
