Session 24 (September 13th)

During the weekends, I had a tour around the outskirts of the busy metropolitan world of Hong Kong into the unseen and unvisited areas of Hong Kong. Below are a few images of landmarks I recommend to tourists to visit for some cultural areas of Hong Kong.

Market in Central:

Markets are the common features in Hong Kong lifestyle, from fresh fish to fresh meat, everything is available in the long streets of markets all around Hong Kong. This market in particular, heads downwards into the Central Business District of Hong Kong.

Victoria Jail:

Located directly next to the police station, this jail is remote presently and was used as a prison back in the 1900's, due to it's lack of space, it was very soon used for other purposes during the time.

Central Police Office, Hollywood Road.

Built in the early 19oo's, this is the first Victorian style police station and is the only of it's type to be visible in Hong Kong. An interesting fact is it is directly linked to the Victoria Prison, which is now a remote jail only used for special viewing purposes only
