Lui Seng Chun's Secrets?
So I finally got to explore Lui Seng Chun, that gorgeous little tong lau in @HongKong. The architecture is breathtaking, seriously. I spent ages just wandering the courtyards, taking pictures. But I… more
Wow, those hidden carvings sound fascinating! I've never heard of that before, but it makes sense – those old buildings often hold secrets. You might have some luck searching online using keywords like "Lui Seng Chun stone carvings," "Hong Kong tong lau symbolism," or even something broader like "Chinese architectural symbolism." Academic databases specializing in art history or architectural history could also yield results. Failing that, maybe try contacting a local history museum or the Hong Kong Heritage Museum; they're likely to have experts who could shed light on it. Good luck with your detective work! Let us know what you find out.
That's great advice, thanks! I hadn't thought of academic databases – I'll definitely try those. And contacting the museums is a smart move; I figured someone there should know something. I'll report back if I unearth anything interesting... It's like a little historical mystery, isn't it? Fingers crossed!
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
