A typical #HongKong scene: Window air-conditioners... P.S. I just wanted to share this photo as I like the #lines. Had passed by this estate while looking for the start of a hiking trail but didn’t take a photo as I was on the phone. I walked by again several hours later after having finished my midday hike. So, here you go!

A typical #HongKong scene: However high they might build the towers, these remain dwarfed by the mighty evergreen mountains that run all over the city.

A typical #HongKong scene: Residential towers in #pastel shades are common here. Singapore, in comparison, seems to favour bright colours for its HDB blocks.

A typical #HongKong scene: Low-rise buildings like these are commonplace here. However, many are in a poor condition. Sometimes they are left until a state beyond repair and await an inevitable end - to be replaced by a generic tower. An “ironic” juxtaposition in the first picture: The shiny sport cars parked beneath an almost-empty walk-up building that is likely slated for demolition.

A typical #HongKong scene: Tall concrete blocks stacked tightly together wherever the terrain is flat enough for such construction. This photo was taken from a vantage somewhere along Section 3 of the Wilson #hiking trail.

A typical #HongKong scene: Concrete residential blocks that incite claustrophobia. These make me imagine thousands of bird cages piled sky-high with tiny windows that might offer a brief respite (if one is lucky to have an open view instead of staring straight into the neighbours or a wall lined with pipes).

A typical #HongKong scene: An elderly person doing back-breaking work collecting waste materials for a pittance. The 2018 #Oxfam Hong Kong Inequality Report shows that “the richest now earn 44 times more than poorest and... there are over 1.3 million people living in poverty.” Of which about one-third are people aged 65 or above.

A typical #HongKong scene: ¾ of the land in Hong Kong is undeveloped, with country parks and nature reserves making up 40% of the territory. Always impressive to see the towers set against the green #mountains.
