On the hospital campus, isolation wards and surgery rooms tell a sobering story: protecting public health while balancing individual hopes and rights.


What You’ll See

  • Corridors with interpretive art installations.
  • Wards, morgue, and laundry logistics.
  • Stories of nurses, translators, and families separated/reunited.

How to Prepare

  • Sturdy shoes; parts of the route are uneven.
  • Weather layer — tours run rain or shine.
  • Extra battery — photo opportunities abound.

Book well in advance; slots are limited and weather‑dependent.
