Wan Chai is renowned for its social activity with a wide selection of bars, clubs, cafes and restaurants. It is also host to various exhibitions and cultural performances which are held in the Hong Kong Arts Centre and Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts.

Blue House & Wan Chai Gap Road - Situated on Stone Nullah Lane, the Blue House Cluster consists of three tong lau tenements: Blue House, Yellow House, and Orange House. It lights up the street spectacularly and adds a sense of nostalgia to the area. The balconies on the four-storey Blue House make it a rarity among Lingnan-style tong lau, which usually don’t have balconies. Later, walk up Wan Chai Gap Road for a different view of the city. Lovers’ Rock - Also called Wan Chai Green Trail, Wan Chai Gap Road goes from crowded city streets to lush greenery. Take a slight detour to visit the 9-metre-tall Lovers’ Rock on Bowen Road, a granite monolith where many locals pray for a happy marriage and fertility to allegedly positive effect. It attracts the most pilgrims during the Seven Sisters Festival, informally known as “Chinese Valentine’s Day”, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. The Green Trail is worth a visit, if just for the sweeping view of Happy Valley and Causeway Bay’s skyline.
