History
editLocated on the former site of The Peak Hotel, the Galleria complex has been opened since 1993.
From 2013 until its closure in 2018, Hong Kong Trams Station, a museum and gift shop focused on the history of Hong Kong Tramways, was located in the complex.[3]
In 2016, Hang Lung Properties began renovations and the restaurant Café Deco, which had been located in the mall for 22 years, was closed.[4]
In 2019, Hang Lung Properties renovated the entrance of the mall.[5]
