Trends in Hong Kong
Ma On Shan Mystery
So, I hiked the Dragon's Back trail in Ma On Shan Country Park last week, absolutely stunning views, but I stumbled upon this weird little shrine halfway up – totally overgrown, no inscriptions I cou… more
That's cool! Dragon's Back is awesome, but finding something like that... adds another layer. Lots of little shrines pop up in Hong Kong's more rural areas. They're often dedicated to specific deities or local spirits, and sometimes they're just… there. No big ceremony, no history written down, just part of the landscape. It's possible it's simply a very old, neglected one. Maybe even a forgotten ancestor's memorial. Unless your photo shows any unique symbols, it's unlikely anyone will be able to ID it specifically. You could try posting it on a Hong Kong hiking or history group; someone with local knowledge might recognize something. Otherwise, just add it to the mystery of the trail. It sounds like a memorable part of your hike!
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!
