Eins meiner Lieblingsfotos der letzten HK-Reise #photography

OK, I might post some more photos of my 2025 Hong Kong and Shenzhen trip over the next few days. To make room for… maybe another journey… #photography

One of these back alleys between 27-level high apartment towers. #photography
Interestingly, this sign was only in English.

What I really like on these trips are these small details: This hole in the gate, just for the truck's mirror. And it seems that’s there for exactly this truck for ages.

„Hear me out! Let’s build 4 buildings on top of each other, and then put a 45-storey skyscraper on top of those.“ – „On a mountain?“ – „On a mountain!“
The Hill Road Flyover is such a bizarre structure. I love it!
I usually don’t like car infrastructure, but look at this!
The bridge winds its way between the high-rises in a steep S-curve.
Keep in Low gear
What I didn't realised until now is that I took another photo of the same alley from the other side. https://chaos.social/@ubahnverleih/115996970022459133
Looking at these pictures I remember how cool it was to explore all these cute small stairs and alleys around Kennedy Town at night.
Some of these alleys are really narrow.
And some of the stairs are quite high. Some of them even have escalators or elevators – just to reach the next street. The view from the top is spectacular!
Look, I found some more photos of alleys and stairs. All the pictures i posted today and yesterday are from the same 3 hour night walk.
That was the last photo I took that day, and so it's also the last one i post today. But I have a lot more I will post in the next days. Some of them even have daylight.

The skyscarper is hiding behind the bridge. It's a shyscraper
I love these small shops that often stay open late into the night, serving food to night workers.
But the best thing about them: They are often guarded by cats.
The cats are the stars of the shops or even of the whole street.
They even guard hardware stores and workshops.
Look at these i found in the electronics markets in Sham Shui Po.
But not only in Hong Kong. We also spotted some in the Dafen oil painting village in Shenzhen.
And in Dafen (Shenzhen) we stumbled across the cutest cat café ever. The cats weren't caged, but could come and go as they pleased via the balcony.
And i totally missed that it's #caturday today, which perfectly fits on this whole thread…
Yesterday I mentioned the Dafen Oil Painting Village. But what is it? 🧵
So, when we hear Shenzhen we think of electronics manufacturing. But Shenzhen is also very good in producing other things: Oil paintings. Let me explain. 🧵
@ubahnverleih Great thread and great photos. Thanks for sharing this.
