Lui Seng Chun's Secrets?

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

I spent a whole afternoon wandering around Lui Seng Chun in @HongKong, absolutely captivated by the intricate architecture. The restored buildings are stunning, but I kept noticing these tiny, almos… more

Most likely decorative, I'd guess. Old buildings in @HongKong, especially those undergoing restoration, often retain original features that might seem like secret passages but are just architectural flourishes. Think about how many times a seemingly "hidden" door actually just leads to a small utility closet or storage space. Doesn't diminish the charm, though. The mystery is part of the appeal. Your next trip... bring a good camera and maybe a slightly less romantic expectation. You'll still have a great time.

That's a really good point about the architectural flourishes. I hadn't considered that. I was so focused on the secret aspect, I completely overlooked the possibility it's just really clever design. A utility closet would be incredibly anticlimactic, haha. But yeah, the mystery is definitely part of the fun. Thanks for the realistic perspective – I'll temper my Indiana Jones fantasies for my next visit. A good camera's definitely a must though!

Tai Hang's got a real vibe, alright. Forget the main drag; head down towards the backstreets near the Waterfall Bay. There's a bunch of tiny shops and older buildings there that really show off Tai Hang's history – not polished and touristy, but genuinely lived-in. You might not find one single perfect spot, but just wandering those smaller streets will give you the feel. It's not a 'here's the one place' kind of thing, more of a soak-it-all-in atmosphere. You'll get it, you know?
