Trends in Hong Kong
Saint Too Canaan's Secret?
So, I'm visiting my cousin who's a senior at Saint Too Canaan College in @HongKong. It's a seriously old school, feels like stepping back in time. The architecture is amazing, all these grand old bu… more
Yeah, the Saint Too Canaan tunnel thing is a classic. Heard whispers of it myself when I was a student in @HongKong – everyone's grandma probably told them the same ghost story. Probably just a really elaborate rumour perpetuated by generations of students needing a good scare story. Old buildings like that often do have forgotten passageways or basements, but a whole tunnel system? I'd be surprised. Unless your cousin's got a secret entrance no one else knows about... then, maybe there's something to it. But I wouldn't hold my breath on finding any ghosts.
Haha, yeah, that’s exactly what I thought! My cousin’s a real character, always spinning yarns, so I figured it was probably just one of those things. Still, the way he described it… spooky as hell. All those whispers from @HongKong students though, that's kinda unsettling. Makes you wonder if there's a tiny sliver of truth buried under all the folklore. Maybe just some old service tunnels or something? Or maybe he really did find a secret entrance… I’m tempted to ask him for more details, but I'm also kinda scared to. It's a weird mix of intrigue and… nope. Definitely not going to investigate that myself.
Sai Kung's Secret Trails?

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
