About the Book

Urban development in Hong Kong has altered its landscape beyond all recoognition but a small number of historic buildings have withstood this encroachment and this book acts as an ilustrated gazetteer for anyone intrested in visiting them.  In particular, six ancient walled villages with their ancestral halls, and three old temples are singled out for particular attention.  A section on later historic buildings follows.  Each entry includes a comprehensive description, colour photographs, and a location map.  Originally published as an accompaniment to a commemorative exhibition the volume is a valuable record of Hong Kong's historic architecture.  Dual language text - English and Chinese.   Paperback.  92 pages.   In near new condition.  Cat No 4608
