<P> In 2003, the Hong Kong Tourism Board developed a harbour lighting plan called "A Symphony of Lights", a large - scale multimedia show featuring lighting, laser, music, and occasionally special pyrotechnics effects during festivals, to promote tourism in Hong Kong . The show is based on the illumination of key buildings on the Hong Kong Island side, and is best viewed from the Kowloon side across the Victoria Harbour . The HSBC Hong Kong headquarters building is one of the participating buildings in the show . The building has been installed with 716 intelligent lighting units, including 450 Martin Professional Cyclo 03 colour changing fluorescent fixtures in the glass stairwells, Martin Professional Exterior 600's and Exterior 200 fixtures on five levels, 8 search lights, and over one kilometre of LED lighting around the top . Completed by mid-December 2003, the cost of installation is estimated to be HK $5.5 million . </P> <P> Intelligent lighting is distributed across six sections of the building: </P> <Ol> <Li> Vertical Ladder Trusses </Li> <Li> Exoskeleton: Inner + Outer </Li> <Li> Refuge Floors </Li> <Li> Northwest Stairwell </Li> <Li> Eastern Stairwells </Li> <Li> Roof Building Maintenance Units </Li> </Ol> <Li> Vertical Ladder Trusses </Li>
