Silent Sunday in Central.

This will be more a photo post than something with lot's of words. We spent our first March Sunday in Central district on Hong Kong Island. Visiting Art galleries and watching the world go by. When you look to Hong Kong Island from Tsim Sha Tsui, you'll see the Central district behind the highest of the skyscrapers; "the IFC tower". Central is one of the most inhabited and famous areas in Hong Kong, and at night it is frequented by ten-thousands of people -mostly tourists-, visiting the thousands of bars and restaurants in the area, among them the famous night life area; "Lan Kwai Fong". Central district reaches from victoria harbour and half up the mountain to the Victoria Peak. Half way up the hill, you'll find the "Midlevels" and the Hong Kong pendant to "SoHo", which means; "South of Hollywood Road". The midlevels and SoHo is probebly the most mixed and multiculturel you can find in Hong Kong, with streets and neighbourhoods -European and Chinese- just next to each other.
On a Sunday afternoon is it relatively quiet and walking around there is lot's of small stories to watch, and lot of history to witness as well, as here old and new architecture is mixed together, and leaving people stunned by the contrasts. And if you want to see this district the way it is today, you better hurry up, as there plans and major investments interests, who are closing in on the last older scruffy houses and streets, wanting to tear it all down to get space to more big and fancy glass and concrete towers.
