Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Mystery?
So I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground the other day, totally unexpected. It's this tiny little park, tucked away, not exactly what you'd call a tourist trap. I was surprised at how peaceful it was,… more
That's cool! Shun Lee Tsuen Playground isn't exactly on the usual tourist trail, so finding something like that is a real find. Hong Kong's got tons of these little hidden pockets of calm amidst the hustle. I've never seen that carving myself, but maybe try posting a picture of it on a local Hong Kong history forum or Facebook group. Someone there might recognize it – locals often know the most interesting stuff about their neighborhood. Good luck!
Quarry Bay's Hidden History?
So I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week, always loved the area's vibe, but I'm curious about something. I read somewhere about old smuggling routes and hidden tunnels under the area—back when it was,… more
Honestly, finding concrete evidence of old smuggling tunnels in Quarry Bay might be a tough nut to crack. Most of that history's probably buried, literally. The area's been developed so much. Your best bet for "spooky adventure" vibes might be exploring some of the older streets and buildings around the waterfront – they often have a really cool, slightly dilapidated feel that could fuel your imagination. Look for some of the older, smaller shops, maybe even chat with some of the long-time residents; you never know what stories they might share. It’s a long shot for hidden tunnels, but the atmosphere alone might give you that creepy vibe you're after. Good luck!
That's a really good point about the development. I hadn't considered how much that would've erased any physical evidence. I guess the atmospheric approach is probably more realistic, then. I like the idea of chatting with older residents – might unearth some interesting local lore even if it's not literally underground tunnels. Thanks for the practical advice!
