Bruce Lees Residence, The Home Of A Legend

Most of us need no introduction to famed action star Bruce Lee

. The renowned kung fu artist is honoured in his homeland Hong Kong for his role in uplifting the image and perception of the Chinese people in his action movies which have garnered fame throughout the world.

Until recently, Bruce Lees former residence in Hong Kong had been turned into a somewhat disreputable motel, but the real estate tycoon who owns the property has relented to endless pressure from the fans of the late actor who wish to preserve his memory and legacy. Accordingly, the property, a two storey townhouse, will be transformed into a museum dedicated to the memory of the action star.

Lees training hall and study will be replicated, and will display martial arts weapons and other artifacts related to the star and his craft. The museum will also feature a movie theatre and library. Lee fans have pointed out that such a museum would be a huge attraction for tourists and raise the international profile of the city.

Bruce Lee was born in San Francisco, California to parents of Hong Kong ethnicity, and spent his childhood years in Hong Kong. At the age of 18, Lee departed for the United States and claimed his American citizenship; he also pursued his higher education. During these years he commenced providing martial art instruction, which quickly led to roles in recognized movies.

His Hong Kong and Hollywood-based movies led to great popularity and he soon became one of the most recognized stars on the globe. Lees martial arts proficiency greatly raised the popularity of martial arts films, attracting a wide spectrum of viewers with his sensational movements and physique.

Today Lee remains a well-recognized and renowned figure, particularly among Asians and especially his native Chinese, as he promoted Chinese nationalism through the visual medium.

To explore Lees legacy in Hong Kong it is necessary to select a suitable Hong Kong hotel. In this regard the Cosmo Hotel, a vibrant hotel in Wan Chai set on the Causeway Bay is the ideal location to commence your journey. The Cosmo Hotel offers well appointed rooms and attentive hospitality for a pleasurable stay.
