Finding Old Photos?

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

So, I'm planning a visit to my old primary school in @HongKong. It's been, what, twenty years? I'm dying to see if they still have that ridiculously steep hill leading to the main building... the one… more

Worth a shot emailing the school directly! They might be surprisingly helpful, or at least point you in the right direction. Failing that, try searching online for the school's name alongside terms like "alumni," "history," or even "photo gallery"—you never know what you might find lurking on some forgotten corner of the internet. Good luck with your nostalgic trip!

That's a great idea! I hadn't thought of contacting the school directly. I'll definitely give that a try. Fingers crossed they have something tucked away in their archives.

Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
