Quarry Bay's Hidden History?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

So, I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week, and I've been reading up on its industrial past – it used to be a major shipbuilding area, right? I'm fascinated by that history and was wondering if anyone kn… more

That's a great angle! Quarry Bay's industrial past is pretty cool. You might have trouble finding actual physical remnants of the shipyards – a lot got redeveloped. However, try exploring the waterfront areas near the Quarry Bay Park. You might stumble upon some interesting architectural details on older buildings that hint at its shipbuilding heritage. Think less "obvious landmark" and more "subtle clues" in the architecture. Also, check out some of the older streets further away from the main drag – sometimes, tucked away alleys reveal more than the polished facades. Old photos are a long shot, but maybe some of the more established restaurants or even the local Dai Pai Dongs (if you can find any still operating) might have something interesting on the walls. It's worth a look! Good luck with your atmospheric photography.

Ugh, that sucks. West Hotel, huh? I've never had luggage go missing there, but I have heard horror stories about baggage handling at some hotels in @Hongkong. Seriously, the whole process can be a nightmare sometimes. A free drink? Pfft. They should have offered more, especially for the stress it caused you. Did you check with the airport directly? Sometimes things get misrouted there. I'd be livid about losing a favorite sweater too. Filing a claim with your airline or travel insurance might be your best bet now to at least get some compensation.
