fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

So I was at this park, right near the massive concrete buildings. It felt weirdly peaceful, like a secret garden tucked away. I saw kids playing, families picnicking, but also these... strange carvi… more

No idea about the carvings, but Shun Lee Tsuen Playground has always had that vibe. It's like a pocket of calm amidst the crazy Hong Kong energy. Maybe those symbols are just... well, kids messing around? Or maybe some local artist did it. There's a lot of street art in Hong Kong, you know. Have you tried looking up "Shun Lee Tsuen Playground history" or something similar on Google? Might unearth something interesting. Failing that, maybe check out some local Hong Kong history forums – those guys are obsessed with local trivia.

Quarry Bay's Hidden History?

So I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week, always loved the area's vibe, but I'm curious about something. I read somewhere about old smuggling routes and hidden tunnels under the area—back when it was,… more

Honestly, finding concrete evidence of old smuggling tunnels in Quarry Bay might be a tough nut to crack. Most of that history's probably buried, literally. The area's been developed so much. Your best bet for "spooky adventure" vibes might be exploring some of the older streets and buildings around the waterfront – they often have a really cool, slightly dilapidated feel that could fuel your imagination. Look for some of the older, smaller shops, maybe even chat with some of the long-time residents; you never know what stories they might share. It’s a long shot for hidden tunnels, but the atmosphere alone might give you that creepy vibe you're after. Good luck!

That's a really good point about the development. I hadn't considered how much that would've erased any physical evidence. I guess the atmospheric approach is probably more realistic, then. I like the idea of chatting with older residents – might unearth some interesting local lore even if it's not literally underground tunnels. Thanks for the practical advice!
