This one was a bit of a bonus. I was on my way to Shek Lo mansion and came across yet more abandoned houses. One in particular was very photogenic. I've christened it the Inside-on-the-outside house. You'll see why very quickly when you start looking at the pictures. The village itself is called Shung Him Tong and is located just on the edge of Fanling in the New Territories part of HK. Here are the pictures:
Ha ha, if ever there was a way to make me go one way and not the other:

Both upstairs and downstairs:

Looks a nice little place from the outside:

No issues with low light here:

Just a few trees that have taken root:

And on to another abandoned house:

Where nature is also bursting out:

Quite literally!

Looks like the air-con needs up-grading:

No use for these old mail boxes any more:

And look at this old temple:

This church, called Tsung Kyam, is all locked up but is standing the tests of time much better:

OK, that's all for this report. Thanks for looking!
