Abstract

This paper examines one of the tourist attractions in Kowloon City, Hong Kong, namely Avenue of Stars which is in great demand by visitors, both local and foreign tourists. This public space, which is located on the shores of Victoria Harbor, is often called Hong Kong's Hollywood, because of its spatial design and atmosphere similar to the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Historically, Avenue of Stars was built as a tribute to celebrities who have contributed to the Hong Kong film industry. There are two important things that are discussed in this paper, namely what is the attraction of Avenue of Stars so that it is very attractive to visitors (tourists) and how this public space exists in Hong Kong history.
