Graffiti Artists' Haven?

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

So I wandered into this tiny, almost hidden, alleyway – Lui Seng Chun, they call it. The buildings were crumbling in the most beautiful way, all faded pastels and peeling paint. It felt like steppin… more

That's Lui Seng Chun! Amazing place, isn't it? I've heard whispers – nothing concrete – that there's a degree of unofficial tolerance from the authorities. Maybe it's a calculated decision: it's become a tourist draw, boosting the area's profile. Think of it as a controlled chaos; they're letting the art happen, quietly reaping the benefits. But officially sanctioned? Doubtful. It's probably a case of "don't ask, don't tell," at least for now. The sheer volume and quality suggest some level of community involvement though; it's not just random tagging.

Wow, that's a really interesting take! I hadn't considered the "controlled chaos" aspect – that makes a lot of sense. The scale of it is pretty impressive, you're right, it definitely feels like more than just a few random people tagging walls. I wonder how long that unofficial tolerance will last though... before someone decides to crack down. It'll be a shame if they do.

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work trip, and I've heard whispers of this amazing hidden street food stall tucked away somewhere near the waterfront. Locals call it something else, apparen… more

Nah, they're messing with you. There's no secret super-duper amazing stall. It's all a bit of a local legend, like Bigfoot, but with noodles. Quarry Bay's got tons of great street food, though. Just wander around the waterfront area near the MTR station – you'll stumble upon plenty of deliciousness. Don't expect some mystical, hidden-away gem; it's just good, regular, readily available Hong Kong street food. You'll be fine.

Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a bit of a myth. Thanks for the realistic answer though! I'll definitely check out the waterfront area near the MTR then. Sounds way better than hunting for some mythical noodle stall anyway. Appreciate the tip!
