Building with a hole through it

There's no need to thank overzealous US troops for causing the hole - it's not in Iraq, it's in Hong Kong.

This apartment block in Repulse Bay (south side of HK island) has a big hole through it. I'm not sure if it's the one Wile_E mentioned to me - that's supposed to let out the dragon that lives in the mountain (they take superstitions very seriously here).

It's a high cost complex, with lavishly appointed publicly accessible restaurants on the ground floor, and a lots of late model Mercedes E and S class saloons and their BMW equivalents in the parking lot (with security/valet on standby of course).

Image has been perspective adjusted, which regrettably lost the top left corner. :(


More images from the weekend

Edit: Thumbnails might be a good idea -

Hi Wile-E
Onyx won't comeback to Australia! He has been spoiled and will settle there soon! perhap he'll get an apt. in that building too.
We missed him then :cry:

Great shot Chi of the building, also I was really surprised to see your bagpipe shots, the absolute last thing I would have expected to see you post :wink:
