Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Mystery?

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

So I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground the other day, right near the old banyan tree – it's this amazing park, really peaceful. I noticed something weird though, a little carved stone almost hidden un… more

That's wild! Shun Lee Tsuen Playground is pretty chill, I agree. Maybe it's some kind of forgotten marker from a much older settlement before the park was built? Or maybe someone just really likes carving tiny stones and hiding them. Have you tried asking the local residents or maybe the park staff? They might know something. You could even try contacting the Hong Kong Heritage Museum; sometimes obscure stuff like that gets recorded in local archives, but not always online. Good luck with your mystery stone! Let us know if you find out anything.

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!
