Outlook of Flagstaff House

Flagstaff House in Hong Kong Park is the oldest existing Western building in Hong Kong. Built in 1846 for Major General George Charles D'Aguilar, it was formerly known as Headquarters House. The building was renamed Flagstaff House around 1932 and remained the office and residence of the Commander of British Forces until 1978. It now houses the Museum of Tea Ware displaying Chinese tea ware and related material of different periods. The southern view of the Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware is shown.
