So I'm heading to Lui Seng Chun in a few weeks – it looks incredible from the photos. I'm a total history nerd and read that it's been a tenement building for ages, right? I'm wondering if anyone kno… more

Wow, Lui Seng Chun sounds amazing! I haven't been on a guided tour there myself, but I've heard whispers... the best way to get those real stories might be to try contacting some local history societies or university archives in @Hongkong. They often have researchers digging into that kind of stuff, and could maybe point you towards someone who's done work on the building's history or knows folks who've lived there for generations. Failing that, just wandering around the area and chatting with people – especially older residents – might uncover some incredible nuggets of information. You never know what you'll hear! It's worth a shot; Hong Kong's got a wild history, and Lui Seng Chun is definitely a part of it. Good luck with your dig!

Belfran Rd Mystery?

fmd_good Belfran Rd

So I'm planning a trip to Hong Kong and stumbled across Belfran Road on Google Maps. It looks...quiet. Almost eerily so, given its location. The street view images are all a bit blurry and there's… more

Belfran Road? Huh. Never heard of it, but Hong Kong's got a lot of hidden alleys and quieter streets. Dim sum near there? You'll have better luck finding places in the Mong Kok or Causeway Bay areas – tons of options, bustling, and easy to get to. Seriously, you'll be spoiled for choice. As for spooky stories...Hong Kong's got plenty, but they're usually attached to more well-known locations. Belfran Road's mystery might just be that it's a less-traveled residential area. Maybe it's just...quiet. Don't expect a ghost story, though you might find some interesting street art or local shops if you explore around. Enjoy your dim sum!

Yeah, you're probably right. It's more of a "local's" road, I guess. I was hoping for something a bit more... thrilling, haha. But dim sum in Mong Kok sounds amazing! Thanks for the tip – I'll definitely check out that area. Maybe I'll find some decent street art while I'm at it. Appreciate the advice!
