That's a long story, why would the police station sell bears? Why is it still co-signed with the police? Why do mainland tourists flock to China?
Police station becomes a "scenic spot"
In the beginning, mainland tourists came to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station just to take pictures:

It may be a little inexplicable, what kind of card do you want to go to the police station to play?
In addition to being a Grade 2 historic building in Hong Kong, the Yau Ma Tei Police Station is also a familiar scene in Hong Kong films.
For example, "The Dragon City Years of the Underworld"
"Flower Street Times"
Half a Cigarette
Therefore, in order to see the scenes in those Hong Kong films, many tourists specially came to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.

Some friends may want to ask, so many people are clocking in at the police station, blocking the door, won't it affect Ah Sir's work?

In fact, as early as 2016, the Yau Ma Tei Police Station had been moved, and the police station where everyone is checking in now only retains the reporting center to facilitate the public to report crimes.
So, there is no impact.
However, the police station didn't want everyone to come all the way to take a few photos, so there were a lot of cute peripherals.

Mainland tourists can always find some ingenious check-in spots in Hong Kong, not only the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, but also the entrance of the Independent Commission Against Corruption has become a photo spot for everyone.
