Happy Valley is
an area known for its horse racing course. It is also an enclave of a mix of the
locals and expatriates when it comes to residents. Many local movie stars also
call it their home - or at least one of their homes. There are even some low-rise
residences that are so rare in Hong Kong. Even the older flats are usually quite
well-kept and fetch a handsome price. There are many nice little restaurants
and cafes along Shing Wo Road and on the little side streets. (Left: found in Happy Valley is a city boundary stone erected in 1903 to mark the limits of the City of Victoria. There are five more of such.) |
