How it's used
Repulse Bay is widely recognized as one of the most upscale residential areas in Hong Kong, often associated with luxury apartments and high-end dining. While the beach is a popular public destination, the surrounding architecture, such as the iconic building with a hole in the middle, makes it a distinct landmark. It is frequently visited by both locals and tourists seeking a more relaxed coastal atmosphere compared to the dense city center.
