The most important exhibition and convention venue in the territory, the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre was the site of the 1997 handover ceremony of Hong Kong from the United Kingdom to the People's Republic of China. The new wing of the center has a bird-like design, to give the impression that the building is about to take flight. Its harbor-facing glass curtain wall is the largest in the world and the promenade surrounding the new wing offers impeccable views over Central, Tsim Sha Tsui and Victoria Harbour in between.
