Island Resort () is a high-rise complex located in the Siu Sai Wan area of Hong Kong (address: 28 Siu Sai Wan Road, Siu Sai Wan, Chai Wan, Hong Kong). Construction of the complex began in 1999, and was completed in 2001.〔 The land on which the Island Resort complex is situated holds the distinction of being the most expensive in the city; in 1997, prior to the transfer of sovereignty of Hong Kong, Sino Land purchased the piece of land for US$1,515,384,620 in order to develop the Island Resort complex.〔 The purchase was the last major land sale in Hong Kong that took place while the United Kingdom was still in control, and was also the most expensive land transaction in the city's history.〔 ==Features== The complex contains four towers, each of which rises 60 floors and in height;〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Island Resort )〕 although the property is classified as containing nine towers, real estate data company Emporis lists the complex as only four skyscrapers, as several are interconnected.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Island Resort )〕 The buildings are composed almost entirely of residential units, with a total of 3,098 apartments; the lowermost floors are used as retail and restaurant space.〔 There is a swimming pool complex, with outdoor and indoor pools. The outdoor pools are in the middle of the tower area and the indoor one is within the main complex. The complex also includes a three-floor shopping mall, a six-floor car park and a three-floor club house.〔("About Island Resort" ), islandresort.hk〕 Facilities provided by the clubhouse include a library, gym room, BBQ area, band room, tennis courts, basketball court, 4 bowling ball lanes, badminton courts, music rooms, play room, snooker room, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a bar, a lounge, meeting rooms, study room, and a squash court.〔 The residential buildings do not include floor 13, 14, 24, 34, 44 and 54〔 because it is believed that 4 is an unlucky number to Chinese people and also a representative of death. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Island Resort (Hong Kong)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
