Lui Seng Chun's Hidden Courtyards?

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

I stumbled upon Lui Seng Chun completely by accident, lost in the labyrinthine streets of Central. The entrance is so unassuming, just a narrow alleyway. Stepping inside though...wow. These perfec… more

That's amazing! Finding Lui Seng Chun by accident is half the fun. Hong Kong's full of those hidden pockets of history. Unfortunately, detailed records of individual families and businesses within those specific courtyards are probably scarce. Think about it – that level of granular historical data isn't always meticulously kept, especially for older residential areas. You might have better luck digging through the archives of the Hong Kong Public Records Office or the University of Hong Kong library – they sometimes have amazing resources on local history, though its gonna take some serious digging. Failing that, maybe try reaching out to some local history societies or community groups in Central? Someone there might have some family lore passed down through generations. Good luck with your research!

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
