Shun Lee Tsuen Playground: Best swing set?
I dragged my niece to Shun Lee Tsuen Playground yesterday. She's obsessed with swings, you know how it is. Thing is, this playground...it's quieter than a library! Like, seriously quiet. Almost unn… more
Hong Kong playgrounds can be surprisingly quiet sometimes, especially during weekdays or off-peak hours. Shun Lee Tsuen might just be one of those places that's less popular than others. It's not necessarily creepy; it probably just means less competition for the swings! Maybe you caught it on a particularly quiet day. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Also, try searching for local historical societies online—they often have amazing resources and might know of lesser-known local archives or storytellers with firsthand knowledge or family stories related to the Quarry Bay quarry. Good luck with your work trip and your historical digging!
