Secret heritage in Hong Kong


We were visiting cemetaries in Hong Kong.
This is a Parsee Pavillion.

It was a hot afternoon. We went to the centre of the city - an area between Wanchai, Causeway Bay and Happy Valley for a very special tour.
We joined a tour to visit the cemetaries in Hong Kong, in the meantime, we learned more about the history of Hong Kong. This was my first time to have such a tour. We visited the muselim cemetary, cathoic cemetary, Hong Kong cemetary and parsee cemetary. They are all in different style and carried many different stories behind. The first tombstone in the cemetary was built in 1841 before Hong Kong was the colony of Britian. We visited the tombs for some once famous figures in Hong Kong.
The tour ended with a foot massage and a visit to Mc Donalds.
