Walk In Hong Kong 活現香港
Description
Crafting the best walking tours in town.
http://www.walkin.hk
info@walkin.hk Walk in Hong Kong offers lovingly-designed and well-researched walking tours in Hong Kong that are fun, informative and celebratory of the city’s tales, past and present, in all their gritty, quirky glory. We have two types of tours: by area – places that appear in tour guides as well as many that don’t – and by theme – urban myths, cemeteries, old shops and more. We invite everyone – tourists, expats and locals, young and old – to see the unseen Hong Kong.

【懷念何藩！】「一代宗師」何藩於上周日逝世（1931﹣2016），享年84歲。何藩是國際著名的攝影師，因拍攝五、六十年代的香港而聞名，成為亞洲最受歡迎的街頭攝影師之一。 他擅長融合煙霧、光影、幾何線條，捕捉香港最具魅力的城市面貌。何藩先生用盡一生於鏡頭後等待最美的時刻，記錄了香港被人遺忘的城市故事和生活點滴。願他的精神能與他的作品一樣長存於世。(相片來源：HK Yesterday） 【In memory of Mr. Fan Ho 】Mr. Fan Ho (1931 - 2016), ‘The Great Master’, passed away on last Sunday at the age of 84. He earned his fame as one of the most beloved street photographers in Asia. His works capture the beautiful street lives in Hong Kong in the 50s and 60s. His mesmerizing style of combining smoke, light, shades and geometric patterns adds magic to his masterpieces. Mr. Ho is dedicated in capturing the essence and soul of Hong Kong, much owing to his love for Hong Kong. May he rest in peace.（Photo source: HK Yesterday) #FanHo #oldhongkong #HKYesterday #一代宗師 #何藩 #walkinhongkong #wihk #活現香港

【Tai O Deity Parade!】Walk in Hong Kong joined with Tai O Heritage Hotel 大澳文物酒店 in bringing some families from Society for Community Organization (SoCO) to Tai O on the day of Dragon Boat Festival. Our co-founder Paul guided the group to witness the annual Dragon Boat Deity Parade, in which three fishermen associations paddled their dragon boats to visit four main temples, carry the deity statues in a water parade and pray for good fortune and communal peace. There were of course many more to see in the tour, say stilt houses, traditional snacks and shrimp paste stall. The tour ended with a visit to Tai O Heritage Hotel, the revitalized gem in the tip of Lantau Island. What a fruitful day for everyone! 【帶小朋友看遊涌！】活現香港與 #大澳文物酒店 聯手，邀請了 #社區組織協會 一班家庭，一家大小在端午節當日到訪 #大澳，欣賞一年一度的遊涌儀式，並走訪大澳其他特色地方，例如棚屋、傳統小食店及蝦膏蝦醬廠。我們當然不會錯過大澳文物酒店，聽前大澳警署的故事！ #taio #dragonboat #taioheritagehotel #tohh #遊涌 #walkinkongkong

致：立法會發展事務委員會委員 促請古物古蹟辧事處檢討現時歷史建築文物評審機制 - Hong Kong Walking Tour | 活現香港 Walk in Hong Kong |...
【#自己皇都自己救】Walk In Hong Kong 活現香港 致函立法會發展事務委員會委員，促請古物古蹟辧事處檢討現時歷史建築文物評審機制，並就舊皇都戲院評級爭議提出三項要求： 一）邀請合適專家參與評級：我們要求針對古蹟辦這次難以令人信服的建議評級，邀請其他專家參與舊皇都戲院的文物價值評審工作。 二）擴大早期公眾參與：我們要求與評審小組五名成員會面，要求詳細交代將舊皇都戲院評為三級的背後理據。 三）澄清評審準則：我們要求古蹟辦澄清，究竟評審其歷史價值時，是否依據專家口中「以年份比高低」的說法為原則，而這是否古蹟辦一直沿用的評審標準；就「社會價值」一項，究竟專家的說法 ﹣即否定「集體回憶」、輕視「社會價值」﹣是否為古蹟辦所認同及接納。 我們會密切留意明天（6月21日）早上的發展事務委員會會議。 信件全文：http://walkin.hk/legco_development_panel/ #自己皇都自己救 #SaveOurState #關注皇都戲院 #北角 #皇都戲院 #NorthPoint
