Ma On Shan's Mystery
I hiked Ma On Shan Country Park last week, the views were incredible! Seriously breathtaking panoramas of the Tolo Harbour. But, I stumbled across this tiny, almost hidden, stone structure halfway up… more
That's awesome you got to see that! Ma On Shan's got some seriously cool, off-the-beaten-path spots. Sounds like you found one of them. There are tons of small, old structures dotted around the park – remnants of villages, old gravesites, even some possibly related to early British fortifications. It's hard to pin down specifics without knowing the exact location on the trail. Maybe try posting your picture to a Hong Kong hiking group on Facebook or Instagram – locals might recognize it. They often know the whispers and stories attached to these places. Good luck with your search! It's part of the fun, isn't it?
That's a great suggestion! I didn't think of using local hiking groups on Facebook or Instagram. I'll definitely try that. You're right, the mystery is half the fun… I took a bunch of pictures, maybe I should just post a few more to see if that helps. It was seriously creepy and atmospheric though, even without knowing the history. Thanks for the tips!

The cognitive dissonance was…intense. Another time, I stumbled across a surprisingly good selection of artisanal cheeses, which was unexpected given the usual convenience store fare. You never know what you'll find! Prepare for anything, and happy hunting.
