Swimming provides numerous health advantages to the body, from relieving stress and depression to increasing energy levels and strengthening muscles and improving flexibility – it’s no wonder so many people enjoy getting in the water! If you want a way to celebrate summer’s joys while reaping these rewards, why not head down to one of Hong Kong’s premier pools?
Swimming pools can be found everywhere in a city, from luxury hotels to public facilities. Some of the most beautiful pools provide stunning views that will impress anyone entering them; with some careful planning you may just find your ideal pool for your vacation getaway!
Pao Yue-Kong Swimming Pool complex in Southern District stands out as a stunning example. Designed by Terry Farrell, it took eight years to come together at a cost of $671 Million HK and took 8 years from conception to completion.
Complex features three pools; main pool, teaching pool and leisure pool (one specifically tailored to toddlers), as well as an area full of water fountains and giant water slides for families to spend quality time together!
Sai Kung Public Pools are among the city’s most beloved public amenities, boasting 50-metre main pool and spectator stands that can hold 380 people, in addition to an idyllic leisure pool that attracts many visitors. Furthermore, this facility also provides diving boards and water slides.
Tsing Yi Swimming Pool offers another outstanding option with its Olympic-size main pool and two smaller ones, all open to the public from April through October and featuring water fountains and slides suited for children! It makes a wonderful stopover between events at other nearby venues!
Tsing Yi Swimming Pool not only features pools but also boasts a fitness room and sauna for added amenities. Showers and lockers are available for those wishing to swim at the hotel before returning directly back home after using its facilities.
