Sky100


Sky100 is a 360-degree indoor observation deck on the 100th floor of the International Commerce Centre, in West Kowloon, Hong Kong. The deck offers views of Hong Kong Island, Victoria Harbour, the Kowloon Peninsula and Tai Mo Shan in the background.
Sky100 is located two floors below The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong. Visitors reach the observation deck using high-speed lifts, which travel from the entrance on the second floor to the 100th floor in 60 seconds.

History

Sun Hung Kai Properties held a naming contest for the new observation deck. Both the English and Chinese name were selected among 3,000 entries in May 2010. Sky100 opened on 17 April 2011.
