The Nourishing Heart Hall within Iao Kun Iok Park is one of its distinctive architectural features. Initially built in the early 20th century to entertain guests, it was later rented to a school for use as a classroom. In the 1980s, the hall served as a municipal department’s specimen room for flora and fauna, and it also functioned as an office and storage space for government departments. Over time, the Nourishing Heart Hall has played various historical roles, and its exterior has undergone numerous modifications.


In 2010, a large-scale reconstruction was undertaken to restore the hall to its original appearance. Moving forward, the hall will primarily serve as an exhibition space, featuring cultural relics donated by the Lo family and the historical buildings of Iao Kun Iok Park. It is open year-round from Tuesday to Sunday, 09:00 to 19:00.
