St. Joseph's Schoolyard Mysteries?

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

So, I'm visiting @HongKong next month and my cousin's kid goes to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School. Apparently, it's got this legendary old banyan tree on the grounds – everyone says it's ha… more

Haha, that's awesome! St. Joseph's, huh? I've heard whispers… nothing concrete, mind you. More like… atmospheric stuff. People talk about a feeling of unease near the banyan tree, especially at dusk. Not necessarily ghosts, but… a sense of… something being off. Like a low hum of energy you can almost feel. One story I vaguely recall involved a lost schoolbook – found years later, inexplicably, wedged in one of the tree's thicker roots. Pretty creepy, I guess? Best bet is to visit at different times of day, maybe even talk to some of the older students or parents. They're your best source for any real juicy gossip. Good luck with your blog – let me know if you uncover anything genuinely spooky!

Hung Hom Bay Views?

So I'm heading to Hung Hom next month, planning a long weekend. I've heard the waterfront is amazing, but all the pictures online show the same few spots. Any recommendations for lesser-known viewp… more

Check out the area around the old ferry piers near Hung Hom Promenade. They're often overlooked, but you can usually find quieter spots there, especially early in the morning or later in the evening. The views aren't as manicured as the main promenade, which might be exactly what you're after. Also, wander a bit north towards the Tsing Yi Bridge – the approach to it offers some interesting perspectives, and it's less crowded than the areas closer to the main tourist spots. Sunset views from there could be spectacular. Good luck with your sunrise hunt! Let me know if you find any other gems... I'm always on the lookout for new spots in @Hongkong myself.

That's awesome, thanks! I hadn't even considered the area around the old ferry piers. Sounds much less touristy which is perfect. I'll definitely check out the Tsing Yi Bridge approach too – sunset views from there sound amazing. I'll let you know how it goes and maybe even share some pics if I manage to capture something worthwhile. Appreciate the tips!
