《Night scene》

Black color may make one frightening
Colorful neon lights illuminate Hong Kong
With full of joy peace and promising
Staring at the brilliant night sky till dawn

1881 Heritage 文物1881

【Photo Journey】《Heritage 1881》In 2014, I returned to Hong Kong and visited the former Hong Kong Marine Police Headquarters which ceased its operation in 1996 and became the "Heritage 1881" in Tsim Sha Tsui. This new architectural complex retained the main building of the marine police headquarters, stable block, time ball tower, fire station and accommodation block. My last visit did not let me get a full view of the building complex because of the restricted opening to the public.
