- The Cassels Block which were former barracks for married British officers. Today, however, it is turned into a visual arts center of Hong Kong.
- Rawlinson House was earlier, the residence of the British Deputy General and has been converted since the 1980s into the Cotton Tree Drive Marriage Registry and Office for Park.
- Wavell House is also another historic building that serves as an education center known as the aviary support center.
This Park in Hong Kong attracts a huge number of curious crowd who are intrigued by the mystical appearance of the Hong Kong Park. Besides, it is also considered to be one of the major tourist attractions in Hong Kong and can be easily accessed by walking through the Pacific place and the escalator close by.
Inspite of being located in the busy area that serves the business center of the city, the Hong Kong Park offers a pleasant, quiet and serene ambiance to the tired tourists visiting the park after an exhaustive day.
