However what I am finding is that the 'old' is rapidly being replaced by the new. Buildings are being knocked down in areas such as Wan Chai, Soho, or the New Territories. These photos show some of the last remaining (and my favourite) fragments of Old Hong Kong still present today, which I hope would be preserved for as long as possible: Snapshots of the fishing village in Tai O, traditional chinese herbal tea shop and woman selling dried orange peel in soho, dai pai dong food stores.... these scenes, in my eyes, are what makes Hong Kong unique, and not the numerous high rise buildings which keep appearing every few months.</p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Memory_capsule/">hkfringe club</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Memory_capsule/photo/466039 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 14:13:56 GMT
