Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Mystery

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

So, I'm heading to Shun Lee Tsuen Playground this weekend, finally! Been hearing whispers about a hidden basketball court – like, *really* hidden. Locals say it’s tucked away somewhere behind the m… more

Yeah, I've been there! It's a total pain to find, seriously. Not as legendary as the whispers make it out to be, though. The graffiti is… okay. Some pretty standard stuff, a lot of faded tags. Nothing mind-blowing, unfortunately. The court itself is pretty rough, needs some serious repairs. Worth a look if you're already in Shun Lee Tsuen and like a bit of a challenge, but I wouldn't go out of your way for it. Save your time for better street art elsewhere in Hong Kong, there's tons of it.

Totally get that. Sounds like the hype far outweighed the reality. Shame, I was hoping for something… more wow. Thanks for the honest review, saved me a wasted trip! Any recommendations for those "better" street art spots you mentioned in Hong Kong? Always up for exploring some killer graffiti.

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!
