First of all please like, subscribe and share with all of your friends in Hong Kong or around the world. Join me as I meander along Caine Road in Mid-Levels, Hong Kong S.A.R., in the first in a new series, taking a look at some 'before and after' photographs of the area. In today's episode, I begin at the eastern end of Caine Road at the Zoological Gardens. Here is a list of Buildings I visit or find out about along the way: -Catholic Cathedral -Old Italian Convent -Victoria Gaol -Douglas Villas -Jamia Mosque -Ho Kom-tongHall (Sun Yat Sen Museum) -Albron Court (Formerly Buxey Lodge) -Police Married Inspectors Quarters -Hop Yat Church -Old Police stations No 8 and 9 -Side streets I delve into ...Ladder St, Shing Wong St, Old Bailey St, Aberdeen St, Rednaxela Terrace, Princes Terrace, Staunton St, Mid-Levels escalator, Shelley St, Caine Lane, Castle Lane and Glenealy. I use a range of photo sources such as old HK Facebook groups and various websites. Gwulo.com is a tremendous source of information to find out about Hong Kong's past. David Bellis has done a phenomenal job of bringing people interested in HK history to a central place where they can pose questions and submit photos. Do check it out. https://gwulo.com/ This year I have bought many books which I have found to be invaluable. These include: Dictionary of Hong Kong Biography edited by May Holdsworth and Christopher Munn. Crime, Justice and Punishment in Colonial Hong Kong, again by May Holdsworth and Christopher Munn. Anglo-China Chinese People and British Rule in Hong Kong, 1841 - 1880 by Christopher Munn A History of Hong Kong by Frank Welsh If you are enjoying the content, then you can support the channel by buying me a coffee - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/coastyex... 💪🏼 Do let me know your thoughts in the comment box or drop me an email [email protected]
