As you leave the Star Ferry concourse in Central, Exchange Square and Jardine House are on the right. Jardine House is a fun building, looking like a cross between a space rocket and an old fashioned merchants ship! This is a tall building on small stilts, known locally as the "Building of one thousand orifices". Jardine House is home to the international traders, Jardine Matheson and there is also a nice Henry Moore sculpture in the concourse at the front of the building.

Next to Jardine House is Exchange Square, home of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The area around here is real yuppie-land and at lunch time the streets here swell with business men and women in suits. Exchange Square is actually three elegant buildings linked by a series of pedestrian walkways. Beneath the Square, is the Exchange Square bus station.
