Mit dem West Kowloon Cultural District, direkt am berühmten Victoria-Hafen Hongkongs, entsteht derzeit eines der grössten und ambitioniertesten Kulturprojekte weltweit. Der neue Stadtteil bietet Raum für die lokale Kunstszene, Theater, Museen, Restaurants, Läden, Büros und Hotels. Die Ausstellung gibt einen Einblick in den Planungs- und Entwicklungsprozess des Quartiers und seine Rolle als Katalysator für traditionelle und zeitgenössische Kultur, sowie innovative Stadtentwicklung. Das Museum M+ von Herzog & de Meuron und das Xiqu Centre von Bing Thom Architects bilden zusätzliche Schwerpunkte der Präsentation, die zu den architektonischen Leuchtturmprojekten von international führenden Architekten in West Kowloon zählen werden. Mit dem Art Park, einer Hafenpromenade und weiteren Plätzen und Terrassen, wird das 23 ha grosse Areal zudem ein wichtiger Naherholungsraum für die Bewohner und Besucher aus aller Welt.
