Hidden gems of Hong Kong

My morning walk around studio on a fine Sunday. It's a family day and kids' playing rugby in a Stanley school field. Playing sands are always kids' favorite.

A path leading up is a Military cemetery of the early British coloniel era for the members of garrison and their families. A dignified rest place.

Preconception that Hong Kong is just for shopping and eating. Apart from the hustle and brustle city life, it is a trove of hidden gems. This part is Tai Tam Tuk, a village only 30-min bus ride from downtown. Its tranquility
is totally different from the vibrant city. The pictures speak themselves.


This is not a fishing village. Boats on shore only.



Birds are common found here.




Surrounded by lushed hills.




Village houses




Somes houses are abandoned and closed



A place good for fishing. Any gains?

Caught a few small fishes

This weekend I gained. I played with Wensleydale fleece. Love sheep. Love the smell. A peek for it. Will share in the coming days. Hope you will return to see my "woolly woolly".
