Hidden Church Spot in Hong Kong! The Filming Location of "A Better Tomorrow" is Stunning

Stepping into this church in Causeway Bay will make you say "Wow" without holding back! As the only church in Hong Kong where weddings are not allowed, the Christ the King Chapel holds many surprises—not only is it the classic filming location of Chow Yun-fat’s "A Better Tomorrow," but it is also a Grade I historic building built in 1928. Once inside, the Romanesque arched ceiling design immediately captures your attention, with Corinthian stone columns complementing the colorful mosaic floor tiles. Sunlight streams through the stained glass windows, casting shadows as beautiful as a painting 🎨. This chapel was funded by Mrs. Ho Tung and is full of classical revival style details, with even the ceiling patterns carrying the charm of time. The solemn church scenes in "A Better Tomorrow" remain deeply memorable. Visiting in person now, you realize the building’s impact far surpasses the movie’s visuals! Although weddings are not permitted, visitors can quietly appreciate the century-old history during open hours. Remember to walk softly and snap a dramatic light-and-shadow photo under the arched ceiling to instantly understand why the director chose this location! 📍 Located on Caroline Hill Road, near St. Paul's Convent, just a 10-minute walk from Causeway Bay MTR station—an essential Citywalk spot for classical architecture lovers and Hong Kong movie fans!
