The Central-Mid-Levels escalator is an escalator in Hong Kong.

It is 800m long, the longest in the world. It was opened to the public on October 15, 1994. It plays a very important role in transport linkage in Hong Kong since it links Central with Conduit Road in the Mid-Levels, and people travelling between these two places can thus save a lot of time. The escalator runs downhill from 6am to 10am and uphill from 10:30am to midnight everyday. Apart from its significance in transport linkage, it is also a tourist spot.
