A 55-year-old block of flats in a run-down part of Kowloon collapsed, killing at least four people on January 29, 2010.
Maintenance workers install scaffolding to support adjacent structures at the site of the collapsed building.
Local temples to Guanyin, the Goddess of Mercy, have extended their hours so worshippers can borrow from her.
Tradition is that Guanyin once a year provides the means to become wealthy.
But these are loans, and borrowers must clear the debt by the end of the lunar year by burning a red packet at the temple where a deal is made. Offerings, meanwhile, are welcome.
Hung Hom Temple offers the loans up to HK$1 billion.

This photo should be taken at the Hunghom bay instead of Kowloon Bay as indicated on the pic. Correct me if I am wrong, thanks!

The original Pak Tai Temple in Hung Hom was built in 1876 and located on a small hill called “Hok Yuen (鶴園)”. In 1921, due to construction of roads in Hung Hom, the temple was demolished and Pak Tai’s statue was kept in Tam Kung Road. In 1929 a temple was rebuilt in the current site, 146 Ma Tau Wai Road, and the statue was moved into the temple again. Pak Tai (North Emperor) is a Taoism god that govern the northern district, his throne is at Polaris. He is also a war god and the god to living creatures in the sea, therefore Pak Tai has a lot of worshippers among fishermen. A street near the temple called “Pak Kung” means Pak Tai’ protection. Once the temple was classified as Grade III historical building but now it is unclassified.
紅磡的北帝廟最早建於1864年，位於一個名叫「鶴園」的小山丘上（今鶴園街附近）。1921年紅磡擴建馬路時，廟宇被毀。北帝神像擺放在譚公道。1929年北帝廟重建於馬頭圍道146號，即廟宇目前的所在地，神像亦於同年遷入新建的廟宇。該廟宇供奉道教神祇「北極真武玄天上帝」，簡稱「北帝」，是掌管北方之神祇，寓居於北斗七星或北極星。北帝亦為戰神與掌管海上的神，深受漁民所虔敬。北帝廟附近一條街道名為「北拱街」，係取其「北帝拱衛」之意。
紅磡的北帝廟曾一度被評為三級歷史建築，惟目前不作任何評級。

Hung Hom.
She is a nice and funny person even thought she said that she don't like to smile much. That's what I love, that's my Hong Kong.
BTW, I really like the tone and bokeh of my 8 elements which once I wanted to sell it......
This is the inter-city train which goes from Kowloon, Hongkong to Guangzhou, China, and back. We went to GZ for 3 days to visit our 88y.o. grandmother. Friends in HK told me that only foreignors like to catch the train to Guangzhou... local HKies catch the coach. Oh well, looks like he's right :-P

過去十八歲 沒戴錶 不過有時間
夠我 沒有後顧 野性貪玩
霎眼廿七歲 時日無多 方不敢偷惰
宏願縱未了 奮鬥總不太晚
然後突然今秋
望望身邊 應該有 已盡有
我的美酒 跑車 相機 金錶 也 講究
直到世間 個個也妒忌 仍不怎麼富有
用我尚有 換我沒有 其實已 用盡所擁有
曾付出 幾多心跳
來換取 一堆堆 的發票
人值得 命中減少幾秒 多買一隻錶
秒速 捉得緊了
而皮膚竟偷偷鬆了
為何用到盡了 至知哪樣緊要
勞力是 無止境
活著多好 不需要 靠物證
也不以高薪 高職 高級品 搏尊敬
就算搏到 伯爵那地位 和蕭邦的雋永
賣了任性 日拼夜拼 忘掉了為甚麼高興
曾付出 幾多心跳
來換取 一堆堆 的發票
人值得 命中減少幾秒 多買一隻錶
秒速 捉得緊了
而皮膚竟偷偷鬆了
為何用到盡了 至知哪樣緊要
記住那 關於光陰的教訓
回頭走 天已暗
你獻出了十吋 時和分
可有換到十吋金
還剩低 幾多心跳
人面脹 水晶錶面對照
連自己 亦都分析不了 得到多與少
也許 真的瘋了
那個倒影 多麼可笑
靈魂若變賣了 上鏈也沒心跳
銀或金 都不緊要
誰造機芯 一樣了
計劃了 照做了 得到了 時間卻太少 no~
還剩低 幾多心跳
還在數 趕不及了
昂貴是這刻 我覺悟了
在時計裏 看破一生 渺渺

I am listening this song while this pic was shot. Love that song so much.
香港體育館（簡稱紅館）
The Hong Kong Coliseum has established itself as one of the most popular multipurpose indoor stadium in Hong Kong for international sports events, spectacular entertainment programmes, pop concerts and convention since April 1983.
Shaped like an inverted pyramid, the Coliseum is one of the most eye-catching landmarks on the waterfront of Hong Kong. The imposing design was constructed from rooftop downwards which creates a maximum column-free space out of the 1,600 sq.m arena, accommodating for over 12,500 audience.
Adjacent to MTR Hung Hom station, the venue is easily accessible by trains and other public transport.
