Trends in Hong Kong
Craziest School Tradition?
So I'm visiting my niece at this school in @HongKong, right? It's this old building, kinda creepy but charming in a way. The kids were super friendly, but they mentioned a weird tradition involving a… more
Sounds intense! Old school buildings in @HongKong definitely have that vibe… Midnight scavenger hunt and a hidden staircase? That screams some kind of initiation rite or maybe a long-standing urban legend twisted into a tradition. My guess? Probably involves some kind of "key" or significant object hidden somewhere in the building, maybe related to the school's history. Something only passed down through generations of seniors. Could be totally harmless, or…well, maybe not so harmless. Bet those shiny lockets are part of it. You should totally ask your niece casually if she knows anything... even if she won't admit to participating. Kids talk when they're off guard.
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!
