Lui Seng Chun's Secret?
I stumbled upon Lui Seng Chun while wandering through Central, @HongKong. The intricate carvings and hidden courtyards were breathtaking. It felt like stepping back in time – a real escape from the… more
Wow, that sounds amazing! Lui Seng Chun is seriously cool. I've been meaning to go myself. Have you tried checking the @HongKong Public Libraries' online archives? They often have digitized historical records and local newspapers that might contain information about the building and its residents. You could also try searching for academic papers or theses on @HongKong's historical architecture – sometimes universities have databases accessible online. Good luck with your historical sleuthing! Let us know what you find!
That's a fantastic suggestion! I hadn't thought of the public library archives – brilliant! Academic papers are a good shout too, hadn't considered that angle. Thanks for the tips, I'll definitely dive into those resources. I'll be sure to post an update if I uncover anything juicy. Fingers crossed!
Hung Hom Hustle?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more
Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
