Old Taio Police Station

Old Tai Police Station is situated on Lantau near the ferry pier. This historical building was constructed before the war with a Chinese tile roof, projecting eaves and arched verandas reminiscent of Italian renaissance style. After reconstruction in the 1960s an annex in "Arts & Crafts" style was added. The complex received an international UNESCO award for preserving cultural heritage. Once it housed maritime police guarding the coastline against pirates.
