The New Territories in Hong Kong have been home to clans for centuries, long before the British colonised the area. Their families still control parts of the land today, and celebrate their cultural #heritage and the history of their villages with large gatherings and banquets on selected holidays. Some of the villages are still well maintained and bustling today. This is particularly evident in Yuen Long, a district in the north-western #Newterritories of #Hongkong, which is surrounded by mountains. There, the ancestral halls, pagodas, temples, and family residences are well maintained, and some can be explored via heritage trails.
However, as these are not museums and people live there, please make sure you DO NOT obstruct them and DO NOT walk into walled cities or courtyards at random. Many of them are closed to tourists (this is often only indicated in Chinese on some signs), and only some #monuments can be accessed. To be respectful of the locals, follow the heritage trail paths (see link below) and only enter buildings that are clearly marked as attractions.
One particularly beautiful heritage trail is the Ping Shan Heritage Trail, which leads through a Tang family area. A particular highlight is the Ping Shan Tang Clan Gallery, a museum located on top of a hill.

Guangxi 廣西, the southern (or western if you follow the #Chinese name) sister of Guangdong is particularly famous for its karst #mountains and river #landscapes. This characteristic is something the province shares with its neighbours Yunnan, Guizhou and even northern Vietnam.
They are impressive and stand serene in the #landscape, some of them can be scaled but many are untouched and mostly admired from below.
#Guangxi also is home to an interesting mix of cuisines and flavours as it is an important spot on trade routes between #China and Southeast #Asia. A trip to the province, especially outside of the more touristically developed cities of Guilin and Yangshou is a wonderful way to explore the cultural connections in the southern Chinese and northern SE Asian regions.

It was a real honour to be in Hong Kong last week to contribute to the #Lingnan University Postgraduate Summer School, and to meet an extremely engaged cohort of students from various disciplines. My workshop "(Re)Thinking Social Networks" showcased diverse methodological approaches in Social Network Analysis, building on the last 15 years of my own as well as collaborative research. I do hope there will be further opportunities to develop work in this field with my Hong Kong colleagues.
