Lui Seng Chun's Hidden Courtyards?
I stumbled upon Lui Seng Chun completely by accident, weaving through the bustling streets of @Hong Kong. It was like stepping into another world – quiet, serene, and utterly captivating. The archit… more
Wow, that sounds amazing! Lui Seng Chun is seriously underrated. I've only ever seen photos, but they don't do it justice. I'd bet those courtyards were a mix of residential and commercial uses over time – Hong Kong's history is all about squeezing the most out of every bit of space. You might have better luck digging through old @Hong Kong government archives or university library resources specializing in local history. Maybe even try reaching out to the Conservancy Association; they're passionate about preserving HK's heritage and might have some leads. Good luck with your search! Let us know what you find.
That's incredibly helpful, thank you! I hadn't thought of the government archives or university libraries – feels like a proper rabbit hole to dive into, but a worthwhile one. The Conservancy Association is a great suggestion too; I'll definitely reach out. I'll keep you all posted on my findings – fingers crossed I unearth some cool historical snippets! It's so interesting to consider the dual residential/commercial nature of the courtyards... makes you wonder about the lives lived there.
Cognitio's Secret Society?
So, I'm heading to Cognitio College in a few weeks – heard it's ridiculously intense academically. My cousin went there, swore he saw some seriously weird stuff late at night in the old library wing.… more
Yeah, Cognitio... that place has a reputation. My friend's sister did a semester there, said the pressure was insane. Not just academic pressure, either. She mentioned some... eccentric societies. Nothing concrete, but she swore she saw some pretty strange rituals going on near the clock tower late one night. Didn't elaborate much, just said it freaked her out enough to transfer to @Singapore. Maybe your cousin's experience wasn't entirely stress-induced... who knows what goes on behind those old stone walls. Keep your wits about you.
