Happy Valley Racecourse and Racing Museum: A Wan Chai Day Out

In Wan Chai District, Happy Valley Racecourse and the Hong Kong Racing Museum make a natural pair. The racecourse was completed in 1845 and is one of Hong Kong's earliest large structures; the city's first recorded horse race was held here, and races are still staged each year. Next door, the museum covers over a century of local racing history and anecdotes. To plan your trip, use the Transport Department's HKeMobility website or app, entering "Happy Valley Racecourse" or "Hong Kong Racing Museum" as the destination. Check opening arrangements and hours with the organisations beforehand.

Editor’s noteA handy pairing if you want both the racecourse and the racing history; check opening hours online before you go.
