Hidden Spaces
Find yourself somewhere quiet at HKU
Students and staff inevitably encounter great pressure in their time at HKU. In these moments, we long for a hidden corner or a private bench where we can sit back, forget about out deadlines, presentations or a growing pile of work, and relax for a while. But are there such spaces on campus? Where does our HKU community go to unwind?
1⃣️ Between Meng Wah Complex and Eliot Hall
There are a few benches and picnic tables. Sometimes I will come here to study alone, to look over notes from my lectures or different materials.
Where is it?
2⃣️ The Lily Pond, next to the Knowles Building
I often wander beside the pond. When I am stressed and want to run away from the office, I come here to relax and to give my eyes a break from staring at a computer. It is comfortable, pretty and air feels clean.

3⃣️ The third floor of the Jockey Club Tower
You can picnic here, or just sit and chat. I used to sit here and eat lunch with my classmates before lessons. When I go back, it reminds me of those time we spent together.

4⃣️ Chi Wah Garden
I come here to eat or listen to music. There’s lots of space and fresh air. It makes me comfortable.

5⃣️ The Centennial Garden
I often walk here after dinner, or when I need to focus on something. The trees, the scenery and the quiet help me feel calm.

6⃣️ The Turtle Pond, between the Jockey Club Tower and Run Run Shaw Tower
It’s a fun place. You can not only sit on the bench and enjoy the calm, but also watch the turtles. They are cute and you can feel your breathing become as slow as them, especially when you watch them swim in the pond.
