Green Hub - Old Tai Po Police Station Multi-Cache

The Old Tai Po Police Station was built in 1899. It was the first police station and police headquarters in the New Territories. It is said to have been built at the site of the British flag raising ceremony which marked the official British take-over of the New Territories. It operated as a police station until the new district police station of Tai Po started its service in 1987.

In revitalising the Green Hub, KFBG adopted an integrated approach to conserve the historic, architectural and ecological values of the site.

At the Green Hub, a range of low-carbon living programmes and residential transformative workshops are now provided, to help individuals and organisations understand the low-carbon living alternatives to unsustainable consumption that is causing climate change and rapid resource depletion.

Visitors are invited to enjoy locally-sourced, healthy food; join one of the transformative educational courses; learn about community events; engage with a network of community members who care about living lightly on our planet; and experience the beauty of this tranquil heritage site.

The Green Hub offers solutions to the challenges in finding harmony with the natural world. Such challenges include the widespread disconnection between people and nature, over-population, an economic order that demands limitless growth, and over-exploits biodiversity and resources, causing the collapse of ecosystems, runaway climate change, and endangers food security.

The Green Hub has reimagined the Old Tai Po Police Station to demonstrate how people can live sustainably while at the same time respecting nature and respecting each other.
