The bauhinia flower holds a special place as a symbol of Hong Kong's identity. Known as the "Hong Kong Orchid Tree," it represents the harmonious coexistence of East and West in this vibrant city. The distinctive shape of the bauhinia's petals mirrors the unique blend of cultures and traditions found in Hong Kong. Since its adoption as the emblem of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the bauhinia flower has come to embody the spirit of unity, strength, and adaptability.
