"Tourists swarm to see your face"





We saw photos from the 1970s as well as early 20th century, and Hong Kong was crowded then as well.
There were many, many, tourists in most places. The parks were quieter and had less round eyed devils than the big Buddha, or atop the lookout from the peak tram.
I found the presence of malls attached to tourist spots exhausting. I get tired just thinking of the quantity of items, the value of those items, and the money that goes round the world.
Instead I enjoyed the night markets where I bought a few items at very low prices.
Do you take the time to marvel at the quality of your life? The space and freedoms you enjoy?
