  The Wan Chai Heritage Trail was formed in 2009 in cooperation between the Wan Chai Revitalisation Initiatives Special Committee and the Hong Kong Urban Renewal Authority as a way to promote area history, heritage, culture and to preserve unique 19th century architecture styles found here that are fast becoming lost to Hong Kong. The Wan Chai Trail includes a host of interesting different historic buildings, temples and market places on or near Queen's Road East. These include The Green House (Burrow's street), Blue House, Yellow House, old Ruttonjee Hospital building, buildings Nos. 186-190 and the Old Wan Chai Market building. Two temples, around Queen's Road are also included. These are Hung Shing Temple and Pak Tai Temple (Lung On Street) as well as several open market areas, Cross Street, Tai Yuen Street and Gresson Street. Other trail inclusions are the historic Pawn and Ovologue buildings on Johnston Street, building No 18 and Nam Koo Terrace on Ship Street as well as the nearby Starstreet Precinct. Overall, you can stroll the area and see each of these heritage buildings and sites in around 2-3 hours depending if you stop at any neighbourhood restaurants or bars. The Pawn is now a popular bar/restaurant and there are quite a few options on Ship Street and within the recently developed Star Street Precinct.
