Saturday Street Scene at Sai Kung Old Town

See Cheung Street, a main street at Sai Kung Old Town, is bustling with visitors on Saturdays. Such low density, spontaneous cityscape is getting rare in Hong Kong as many streets with old low rises are gradually pulled down for high density development.

Hung Kee Seafood Restaurant, Sai Kung Town

Hung Kee Seafood Restaurant is one the many seafood restaurants along the seafront promenade of Sai Kung Town, Hong Kong. Guess what are those things placed on the pavement.

Dundas Street, Mong Kok at night!

I sat inside the Dundas Street Sitting-Out Area and spent 20 minutes to finish this sketch. The time was 9:20p.m. and Mong Kok was vibrant and crowded with people as usual. However, the sitting-out area / pocket park that I was in was very much underused. I think the gates dividing the street and the park should be removed, otherwise very few will come in.

Looking out in Midnight Hours!

Central Market Mural 舊中環街市牆畫: 城中綠洲 Progress Update 18 Feb 2010

In March 2003, the Central Market ceased to operate. But now the government proposes to adopt ‘Central Oasis’ as the theme, to introduce more greenery into Central and to create an amenity space for the public. And wall painting is part of the project!
