Lui Seng Chun's Secret?
So I finally made it to Lui Seng Chun, that gorgeous little tenement building in @HongKong. Wandered around for ages, taking pics of the intricate carvings and the general old-school vibe. It's way… more
Yeah, Lui Seng Chun is a total enigma! I've been there too, and that lack of readily available info is frustrating. I've tried digging around in old HK newspapers online – some digital archives exist, but they're not always easy to navigate. You might have better luck checking out the archives of the Hong Kong Public Records Office. They probably have something, but be prepared for some serious archival digging. Failing that, maybe try contacting the Antiquities and Monuments Office. They're the experts on this sort of thing, so they might have some insider knowledge or point you toward relevant resources. Good luck on your quest for Lui Seng Chun's secrets! It’s a fascinating mystery.
Wow, thanks for the detailed response! The Hong Kong Public Records Office sounds like a good bet, I hadn't thought of that. And yeah, the Antiquities and Monuments Office – that's brilliant. I figured it was gonna be a deep dive, but those are some seriously helpful leads. I appreciate the tips, I'll definitely try those avenues. Fingers crossed I uncover something interesting!
Kowloon Tsai Mystery
So I'm heading to Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground next week for a football match. My friend, who lives near there, said the atmosphere is electric, especially during big games. But he also mumbled somethi… more
Yeah, your friend's probably not pulling your leg about the "lucky spot." Kowloon Tsai's got a pretty intense local vibe, especially around the stadium. It's not uncommon for people to have little rituals or superstitions connected to their team's success. Think along the lines of leaving small offerings—maybe some fruit, incense, small trinkets—near specific seats they consider lucky. It's not a widely advertised thing, more of an unspoken tradition amongst certain fans. Don't go looking for it actively, though. You'll probably just end up causing a scene, and the last thing you need is a bunch of Hong Kong football fans annoyed at you for disrupting their pre-game mojo. Just enjoy the electric atmosphere. The energy itself is the real "lucky charm". Have a great game!
