In the denomination of HK$100, the Commemorative Banknote is tinted mainly in red, an auspicious and iconic colour, representing jubilation and passion. The front side of the Banknote features the spectacular Great Wall of China and the grand Bank of China Building in Beijing, symbolising the solid foundations and unique capabilities of BOC given its long history. On reverse side of the Banknote is the modern metropolis of Hong Kong as an international financial centre with the famous landmark - Bank of China Tower. These prominent features provide a perfect representation of BOC as a global brand and the Bank's contribution to Hong Kong's long-term stability and prosperity.
