Cinematic Hues in the City

Cinematic Hues in the City – Tram Tour

RSVP for Event / Programme

The Tram, like an audience on its historic steel tracks, quietly observes the city’s day-and-night cinematic spectacle unfolding on the streets. As it threads through the urban fabric, it archives the dazzling colours once captured in classic films. Fleeting, vibrant movie scenes flicker past its windows, like a continuous reel of light and shadow, distilled into the tram’s enduring memory of the metropolis.

Step aboard the specially designed BODW In The City Tram and join the docent from Walk in Hong Kong for a 1.5-hour journey that reawakens the connection between design and cinema — from neon glow to modern architecture, from cinematic frames to urban design — revealing Hong Kong's unique visual language and rhythm.

This is more than a tram ride. It is a cinematic journey through light, colour, and time — an invitation to see Hong Kong anew.

Tour Highlights:

Themed Tram Design: Inspired by classic Hong Kong films — from In the Mood for Love and Days of Being Wild to A Better Tomorrow and Infernal Affairs — the Tram transforms film stills into a flowing urban canvas, radiating cinematic hues across the city.
Cinema Along the Line: Trace iconic film scenes shot along the tramway — from Rouge and Nomad to Crossing Hennessy — and see how the city’s streets became the stage for Hong Kong’s most memorable stories.
Contemporary Architecture: Admire landmark works by masters such as I.M. Pei and Norman Foster that outline Hong Kong’s skyline.
Urban Transformation: From Sai Wan’s tenement blocks to the Causeway Bay footbridge and the historic State Theatre in North Point, uncover how the old and the new intertwine in the city’s ever-evolving landscape.
Design and Light: Discover the artistry of street typography, signage, and neon — the everyday details that give Hong Kong its singular aesthetic.
