#sheung wan

One of Hong Kong’s oldest surviving temples and a declared monument, built between 1847 and 1862. The compound combines Man Mo Temple, Lit Shing Kung and Kung Sor, once a venue for settling community affairs, and preserves Qing-era objects, carved timber, granite work and the incense-heavy devotional atmosphere of old Sheung Wan.

A revived old-school Cantonese tea house in Sheung Wan, built around the communal, high-energy rhythm of traditional Hong Kong yum cha. The point is as much the ritual as the food: tea, dim sum, shared tables and the bustling service style that has largely disappeared from modern Hong Kong dining rooms.
