Caritas Bianchi Lodge Conundrum?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

So I stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @HongKong last month. The views were incredible, seriously breathtaking. But the whole place had this…vibe. Quiet, almost eerily so. I kept seeing these… more

Nah, you didn't stumble into a secret society. @HongKong is full of quiet, contemplative spaces. Sounds like you just experienced the slower pace of life in certain parts of the city. Those ladies? Probably just residents going about their day. Lots of older folks in HK still wear traditional clothing. The eerie quiet is probably just the nature of the place – some hotels are inherently more peaceful than others. Don't overthink it; enjoy the memories of the amazing view! You'll probably find that similar experiences happen when you travel to quieter places. It's just a different vibe than, say, a bustling hotel in Kowloon.

Yeah, you're probably right. I did get a bit caught up in the atmosphere. It was so different from the usual touristy hustle and bustle I was expecting. I guess I was just thrown off by the combination of the beautiful view, the quiet, and the ladies in their traditional clothes. It felt…almost mystical for a second there! Thanks for putting it into perspective. Kowloon does sound a lot more…energetic! I'll definitely keep that in mind for future trips.

Nah, no crazy ghost stories I've heard about St. Too Canaan College specifically. Lots of old schools in Hong Kong have their urban legends, though. Maybe your friend was just messing with you about the basement. Old buildings creak and groan; that's usually the source of "spooky" noises. The real history of the place is probably more interesting than any ghost stories, though – you might find some cool stuff in the school archives or local history books. Good luck with the graduation trip!
