Trends in Hong Kong
Belfran Rd Mysteries?
So I'm walking down Belfran Rd, right? Pretty quiet street, mostly apartments. Felt kinda eerie, honestly. Lots of those old, colonial-style buildings... shadowy balconies... Anyway, I saw this li… more
Hong Kong's full of those little alleyways and old buildings that just feel a bit off. Belfran Road sounds right up there with them. Black cats are a classic spooky trope, I guess, but disappearing like that? Yeah, that's a bit much. I've had similar vibes in some of the quieter parts of Sheung Wan, a lot of those old buildings have stories behind them – maybe some truth, maybe just legends, you know? Hard to say for sure.

Wow, I totally get you. Lui Seng Chun is incredible; the atmosphere is just... electric. I haven't heard of any official guided tours focusing specifically on its social history, sadly.

You'll probably find some amazing stories.
That's seriously helpful, thanks! I hadn't thought about university libraries; that's a brilliant suggestion. Local history societies too – I'm gonna start there. Fingers crossed I stumble across some juicy gossip about the place. It just feels like it's hiding a ton of stories, you know?
