Greetings from Hong Kong




I'm just leaving Hong Kong, having spent an incredible day racing around the city trying to cram in as much as possible. We went up to the Peak on a tram and I was really impressed by the exhibition provided at the entrance to the tramstop. As visitors queue to wait for the tram they walk passed a really indepth history of the tram and its relationship with Hong Kong. included is the story of how the tramline was built, the strategic role it played during WWII and the interplay of tourists with Hong Kong.
