Peak Tower

The first peak Tower was designed by Hong Kong architect Chung Wah Nan.

[10][11] The current Peak Tower was the work of the British architect Terry Farrell, and was completed in 1997.

The Peak Tower now has eight floors with the viewing terrace relocated to the top of the building (at the top of the 'wok' shape) that overlooks both Victoria Harbour and Aberdeen (SW of the Hong Kong Island); however, severe air pollution often hinders the outlook from this venue.

Apart from the Peak Tram terminal, viewing terrace, and gift shops, the tower also included several attractions: Ripley's Believe It or Not!

In 2000, after the closure of Hong Kong's Historical Adventure, Madame Tussauds Hong Kong moved in to occupy the former vacated premises to become the first Madame Tussauds permanent outlet in the Asia-Pacific region.
