After a decade of waiting, the world-famous giant yellow duck is coming back to Hong Kong. Starting June 10, an inflatable rubber duck duo -- each 18 meters tall -- is going to turn the Victoria Harbour its “bathtub”.

The duck buddies, created by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, arrived in the city last week and already underwent a floating test in Tsing Yi.

To celebrate their grand comeback, the organizers launched a special campaign featuring 24 images of the adorable pair at various places across the city, including the Clock Tower and Space Museum in Tsim Sha Tsui, Lan Kwai Fong, and Choi Hung Estate. 

Some exits at 18 subway stations have also been decorated into “Double Ducks Exit” with rows of ducky footprints, wrappings and motifs.
