Completed in: 2003

Completed in 2003, the Two International Finance Centre (Two IFC) is a 417- meter-tall high-rise towering over the Victoria Harbor on the north shore of Hong Kong Island. Two IFC is the taller one of the two IFC buildings and part of a US$ 3 billion complex which also includes a luxury shopping mall and the Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong. Shaped like a shimmering obelisk, the building has become a prominent landmark of Hong Kong Island and symbolizes Hong Kong's financial vitality. Some citizens nicknamed Two IFC and its twin building One IFC as "two incense sticks".

Two IFC was featured in a number of Hollywood films, e.g., Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, in which the heroine Lara Croft jumped off the then-under-construction building.

Two IFC is presently the second tallest building in Hong Kong, following the even taller skyscraper, the International Commerce Center (ICC) across the harbor in West Kowloon. It's also home to many multinational financial institutions.
