Happy Valley Racecourse

Description:

• Horse-racing has been the most popular spectator sport in Hong Kong since 1846, and it is one of the few gambling activities that is legally allowed within the territory. The race season runs from September to June, and races at Happy Valley are usually held on Wednesday evenings, but extra races are sometimes held on Sundays and public holidays. Entry into the public stand costs a mere HKD10. Alternatively, for a more comfortable way to see the races, there is a horse race tour organised by the Hong Kong Tourist Association. Racing is also held at Shatin Race Track.
