Phase 1 of the “Live out the Cinematic Charm of Hong Kong” Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In Exhibition, which debuted at Hong Kong International Airport in October, was wellreceived by locals and visitors alike. It has been relocated to Kowloon City, the setting of the movie, and today marks the start of Phase 2 (until 13 April 2025) of the Exhibition. The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), Nan Fung Group AIRSIDE, and the Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA), together with the filmmakers, have created an expanded exhibition that will allow visitors to fully immerse themselves in the movie sets. Several all-new photo spots and Easter eggs shots that were not included in the movie have been added, and visitors can take home movie-related merchandise, ranging from nostalgic snacks and toys to film collectibles from new stalls at the Exhibition. Locals and visitors are invited to explore Hong Kong through the lens of the movie and discover new travel experiences.
