Commissioned in October 2011, the Legislative Council Complex is the first purpose-built facility for the Hong Kong legislature. It is characterised by a predominance of vertical lines and an extensive use of glass to signify the independence, openness and solemnity of the legislature. Visitors are welcome to join guided tours of the complex to visit the Public Gallery of the Chamber, the key meeting space in the complex, to learn more about the work of the council and the facilities within the building, and enjoy the view of Victoria Harbour.
