The Avenue of Stars
Characteristic
The Avenue of Stars is located in the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade. The avenue is 440m in length and pays tribute to the Hong Kong film industry. The commemorative plaques and handprints of some outstanding Hong Kong film stars, milestones of the Hong Kong film industry and Hong Kong Film Awards sculpture are displayed on the avenue in front of the magnificent backdrop of Victoria Harbour. The avenue was renovated in 2019 with more sitting-out areas and sculptures. The handprints are relocated from the ground to the handrails along the promenade to allow a closer look.
