Trams are a way of transportation in Hong Kong that was introduced by the British during the colonial periods. It did take a lot of time to assemble and plan out many things with the trams, eg: where it will go

 trams were built as a form of cheap transportation which many people young and old still use today. It also gives you quite a nice tour of Hong Kong.

Its nice to think that these are a part of history.]]> 2022-05-11 03:34:57 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriatripodoro2/lkfvqx0jjxlqgd59/wish/2178713590 victoriatripodoro2 https://padlet.com/victoriatripodoro2/lkfvqx0jjxlqgd59/wish/2178718491 Tin Hau temple is a temple that was built in 1747 which was way before there was a whole situation about who owns Hong kong. Temples in Hong Kong are commonly used for people to pray and believe in their own religions. In most temples in HK, Buddhism is what is practiced, but it doesn't have to be. Mainly the people that use/go to Tin Hau Temple are mainlanders/ people who live in Hong Kong or people who want to pray, visit their gods, etc.  A lot of tourists like to visit Tin Hau Temple because it is probably the oldest artefact in HK. Think of it as the colosseum.  

IN MY OPINION, I think of it as an artwork of history from way pre-colonial times which is really cool to see in person since hong kong’s artefacts are mostly skyscrapers built recently or things brought by the British.

It was built on the former site of Hennessy Centre by Hysan Development Company Limited and designed by international architecture firm Kohn Pedersen Fox. It first opened on August 10, 2012.

Hysan place was built to be used for people to explore different styles,tastes etc, as much shopping malls do. Hysan place is a really nice mall for tourists too visit too! 

Hysan is a nice touch to Hong Kong, CWB. I think it isnt as popular as IFC which is Hong Kong’s most known mall. ]]> 2022-05-11 03:41:06 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriatripodoro2/lkfvqx0jjxlqgd59/wish/2178719601 victoriatripodoro2 https://padlet.com/victoriatripodoro2/lkfvqx0jjxlqgd59/wish/2178742567 Introduction

Hi! Welcome to Causeway Bay. Causeway Bay's history as a shopping district began in 1960, with the opening of Daimaru, a Japanese-style department store on Great George Street. Causeway Bay had grown into Hong Kong's main shopping district by the 1970s.

Today I will be talking about 3 pre-colonial,colonial and post colonial places in Causeway Bay Hong Kong!

Causeway Bay nowadays is known for its shopping malls and chill areas to have nice drink on a hot hong kong day. Causeway has changed A LOT. If you look back to Lee Theatre in CWB back in the day, it really looks like Hollywood!  I think CWB will most defenitly change in the future to match upcoming themes and aesthetics.

I think Hong Kong NOW isnt so far from what is was before but it does have its big differences.]]> 2022-05-11 04:07:56 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriatripodoro2/lkfvqx0jjxlqgd59/wish/2178743326
