EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Glimpse into the Past: The Enchanting 7-Storey Tiger Pagoda of Hong Kong's Aw Boon Haw Garden" 2.. Step back in time to the vibrant 1950s in Hong Kong as we explore the captivating 7-storey Tiger Pagoda, a hidden gem nestled within the Aw Boon Haw Garden, located on Tai Hang Road in the Wan Chai District. This architectural marvel, also known as the Tiger Balm Garden or the Haw Par Villa, was opened in 1935 as an ornamental and cultural landmark. The Tiger Pagoda, an iconic symbol of Chinese heritage, stands proudly amidst lush greenery and intricate landscapes. With its distinctive red color and intricate tiger motifs, the pagoda showcases a harmonious blend of traditional Chinese architecture and mythology. The pagoda was designed to house Buddhist relics and was believed to bring good fortune and prosperity to its visitors. The Aw Boon Haw Garden, which included the Tiger Pagoda, was an extension of the Haw Par Mansion, the residence of Aw Boon Haw, the founder of Tiger Balm, a popular traditional Chinese ointment. The garden was a testament to the founder's deep-rooted respect for Chinese culture and history. Unfortunately, the garden and its iconic Tiger Pagoda were demolished for redevelopment in 2004, marking the end of an era. This photograph, taken in the 1950s, offers a precious glimpse into the history and charm of this once-magnificent cultural landmark. Join us on a journey through time as we delve deeper into the rich history and captivating stories behind Hong Kong's iconic landmarks.
