Kowloon Walled City Enclave, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China

The area where the Walled City once stood is now Kowloon Walled City Park (九龍寨城公園), located in today's Kowloon City District. The 31,000 m2 (330,000 sq ft) park was completed in August 1995, and opened officially a few months later on 22 December. Construction of the park cost a total of HK$76 million (US$9.8 million). It is adjacent to Carpenter Road Park.
The park's design is modeled on Jiangnan gardens of the early Qing Dynasty. It is divided into eight landscape features, with the fully restored Yamen as its centrepiece. The park's paths and pavilions are named after streets and buildings in the Walled City. Artifacts from the Walled City, such as five inscribed stones and three old wells, are also on display in the park.
Components of the park include:
- The Eight Floral Walks, each named after a different plant or flower
