About Tai Po Waterfront Park
The Spiral Lookout Tower offers an elevated view over the water and surrounding district, while the Insect House turns attention to much smaller forms of life through specimens and interpretation.

What to look for
- The Spiral Lookout Tower provides an elevated harbour panorama.
- The Insect House presents specimens and displays about insect life.
