The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre is a convention and exhibition facilities in Wan Chai North, Hong Kong Island.
It is operated and managed by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council . The original building was built on reclaimed land off Gloucester Road in 1994 (?). The glass curtain was the world's largest by then. Its construction was financed by New World Development , with Renaissance Harbour View , Grand Hyatt and Harbour View Apartment on top of it.
A second phase of the centre, on an artificial island, was constructed from 1994 to 1997, featured a bird-like (some who do not like it regard it as turtle) rooftop. It has the world's largest glass-curtain, overlooking the Victoria Harbour on three sides. It is connected to the old phase with a sky bridge, and to Convention Road with two road bridges.
