Heritage 1881, TST, Hong Kong

The old Marine Police Headquarters is now a tourist attraction in Tsimshatsui with a new name Heritage 1881.

1. Probably due to preserving the big old tree, a tower with stairs was built to cover it. 2. Walking up and down.

3. View to the Cultural Center. 4. I guess this is the hotel behind this Heritage.

5. Kind of colonial. 6. Something like a clock tower or related to physics.

7. a boarder view to the Heritage. 8. Our old time typhoon signal stand in TST.

9. a map of the west of Pearl River Delta. 10. Star House, Hong Kong Hotel and Harbour City.

The main building has been in HK over 100 years. Just it is getting more commercial with a hotel, some restaurants and shops.

Old dress new wear.
Old dish new eat.
Old trick new play.

Yes, old trick new play everyday. "Don't care it is an old trick/old strategy as long as it works..."

Mmh. I think strategy is with some wisdom and more comprehensive planning. Tricks is a bit negative or maybe not very professional.
