I have fond memories of a wonton noodle shop kind of hidden off of the street when visiting family. Seeing your initial shot of the street gave me waves of nostalgia
Endless scenic nature hiking in HK. You could spend a lifetime exploring it all. The Southside is beautiful,( my pers fav), but New Territories has even more serene hikes
I used to live in an apartment with my family in stanley prison and later moved to yuen long then flew to canada i really do miss my old place where i lived 15 years of my life... I remember that i loved the satay beef noodles in kam kee and always went to mcdonalds or walked around the market when i had nothing to do i never thought i would miss hong kong since i complained so much about it but now that im in canada i really wish i spent more time appreciating what i had
There are two possible origins of the name "Chek Chue" . Legend has it that the notorious pirate Cheung Po Tsai was active in Stanley. That is why the district became known in Cantonese as Chak Chue (Chinese: 賊柱). There was once a Cheung Po Tsai Cave near the Tin Hau Temple west of Stanley, but the cave was filled in the early 1950s. The original Cantonese name of the village was believed to be based on a big tall cotton tree often covered with bright red blossoms at the time, hence red pillar (赤柱) in Hakka language.
Thank you. Stanley is such a nice place to visit. I have been there many times and enjoy having lunch down by the sea.

Surprisingy peaceful for a city area, wasn't expecting that :)
It really is peaceful but usually crowded but since the Virus Outbreak there are much less people here.

Any idea why this place is called Stanley in Hong Kong ? The chinese name literally means 'Red Piller'.
