Hong Kong's Southside - the glimmering stretch of coastline from Aberdeen, through Repulse Bay, Stanley and Tai Tam, to Shek O -- is a weekend paradise of restaurants, markets and beaches, the destination of choice for sailors, swimmers, hikers and shoppers. These attractions are all captured by Lorette in this book but, in her familiar style, she has discovered much more. There are vignettes of the old villages, complete with traditional watchtowers, temples and scarecrows; sketches from visits to two museums and a pristine marine reserve; a sampan trip around Aberdeen Harbour, and a secret tunnel to underground wine cellars. There are rugged shores and stunning mountain views; the elegant architecture of The Repulse Bay and Victorian waterworks at Tai Tam; and riotous dragonboat races at Stanley beach! Whether you are a resident or a first-time tourist, this book will introduce you to new and delightful aspects of Hong Kong's Southside.
