The Golden Bauhinia Square (Chinese:金紫荆广场) is an open area in North Wan Chai,Hong Kong.The square was named after the giant statue of a golden Bauhinia blakeana at the centre of the area,situated outside the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre,where the ceremonies for the handover of Hong Kong and the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region was held in July 1997.A flag-raising ceremony is held every day at 8:00am.It is considered a tourist attraction.
The sculpture,a gilded flower bauhinia,is 6 meters high.The major part is composed of a bauhinia on a base of red granite pillar on a pyramid.
The sculpture is deemed an important symbol for the Hong Kong people after the handover.On the second day of Chinese New Year and National Day of the People's Republic of China,the square is lighted up by a firework show.
