Declared monuments of Hong Kong are places, structures or buildings legally declared to be "protected". In Hong Kong, declaring a monument requires consulting the Antiquities Advisory Board, the approval of the chief executive as well as the publication of the notice in government gazette.〔(Leisure and Cultural Services Department – Antiquities and Monuments Office )〕 As of 24 October 2014, there were 108 declared monuments in Hong Kong.〔(List of declared monuments on LCSD website )〕 Under Antiquities and Monuments Ordinance, some other buildings are classified as Grades I, II and III historic buildings, and are not listed below. == Monument declaration and historic buildings grading system == There was no direct link between graded buildings and monuments. As of July 2007, 607 buildings had been graded (since 1980), 54 of these, including five Grade I buildings, had been demolished. As of August 2007, of 151 buildings classified as Grade I, only 28 pre-war buildings have been declared monuments since 1980.〔Una So, (Court ruling clears way for Queen's Pier dismantling ), ''The Standard'', 11 August 2007〕 On 26 November 2008, the Antiquities Advisory Board announced that the declaration of monuments would be related to the grading of historic buildings.〔Development Bureau, (Press Releases:Linkage established between monument declaration and historic buildings grading system ), 26 November 2008〕 As of February 2013, there were 101 declared monuments, of which 57 were owned by the Government and the remaining 44 by private bodies.〔Report No. 60 of the Director of Audit, (Chapter 1: "Conservation of monuments and historic buildings" ), 28 March 2013.〕 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「Declared monuments of Hong Kong」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
