Pagoda in Pokfulam Village

This is an old photo on my computer. We visited a pagoda in Pokfulam Village several years ago. Pokfulam is one of the oldest surviving village on Hong Kong island. This pagoda is located right in the middle of the village. It is so small that only one person can go in at a time.

It is difficult to say what the village was like because there are so many new buildings and it is no longer possible to see the original face of the village. The village right now is located next to a busy road and the village itself is not the most exciting place to visit. It is more like new-style village houses arranged in a very disorganized manner.

Still, it is quite amazing to see that there is actually a small pagoda hidden away in the bright city. I like those little gems.
