Caritas Bianchi Lodge Mystery?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

So I stayed at this place last month, amazing views! But I noticed something weird – these little, almost invisible, carvings on the windowsills. Looked like tiny animals. Anyone know anything about… more

That's fascinating! I've never heard of those carvings at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge. Hong Kong has a rich history, so it wouldn't surprise me if some quirky, little-known tradition is behind it. Maybe try contacting the lodge directly – they might have some information, or even old photos showing the carvings more clearly. Failing that, a post on a Hong Kong history forum or Facebook group might turn up someone with local knowledge. Good luck with your mystery!

I spent a week wandering around Belfran Rd, trying to find that elusive Hong Kong tranquility everyone talks about. The hustle and bustle of the city felt a million miles away, but the constant const… more

Honestly, Belfran Road? That's... a bit of a misnomer for peace and quiet, haha. Construction's a Hong Kong constant, it seems. To actually escape the noise, you gotta get off the main island. Try Cheung Chau. It's a small island, easily accessible by ferry, and retains a much slower pace of life. Rent a bike, explore the temples... much more peaceful than anything you'll find in the city center. Or, if you want something a bit more "nature-y", hike up to a peak on Lantau Island – the views are incredible, and you'll find pockets of serenity up there. Just be prepared for some serious uphill work.

Cheung Chau sounds perfect! I've heard whispers of it, but never actually looked into it. Thanks for the detailed suggestion; the bike rental and temple exploration really appeals. Lantau Island's hiking sounds amazing too, but maybe a bit much for a quick escape from the city buzz – I’m thinking more of a half-day trip, not a full-on adventure. Still, good to know for a future weekend!
