Pictures of Kowloon City Wall - Park

Back in the early 1900, there was this military outpost in Hong Kong, when the British signed the treaty with China, this outpost became one of those place that neither the British nor China want to take care of, so this place become a lawless gang city where no police would enter.  When Ted was a missionary here in back in 76, he was given a referral and unknowingly enter the city.  Of course he never went back for follow up because he was not supposed to be there.  Anyway, the Hong Kong Government finally evacuated the city and now transformed it into a park.  Sister Norman thought this place is a true example of the cleaning power of repentant and resurrection!

On the day we visited, there was this volunteers tour guide who gave us a introduction of the city, what it was, we also found people dancing and practicing Chinese Martial art there.  Today, it is a beautiful park where everyone can enjoy it beauty and tranquility.

This is called fist writing, Can you see the fists in the words?

This bird only come once a year to the same tree just to eat the fruits.

The buildings in the Walled City before the tear down.  We were told there are secret passage ways between floors, floors are build on top of each other and sometimes there are no stairs to go up and only boards as wall that people pull down, open a hole on the wall, put on board on their bed then walk over to the next room/building!
