一位城市探險達人進入香港最高檔區的一座荒廢的餐廳。
餐廳建於 1947 年,是一棟單層建築,紅色斜屋頂,讓人聯想到英式鄉村小屋。 增加這種印象的是石牆、拱形窗戶、山牆上的黑白半木結構和可見的煙囪。 花園環繞,可俯瞰南中國海,以古老的界牆而著稱,種類繁多的樹木、灌木和花卉構成了樸素的田園風貌。
餐廳於1981年被評為二級歷史建築。最近關閉,裡面的桌椅已經清理乾淨。
城市探索的原則是:除拍照外不取一物、不留痕跡和不公開地點。
An avid urban explorer ventures into a deserted restaurant in the most upscale district in Hong Kong.
Built in 1947, the restaurant is a single-storey building with a red, pitched roof, reminiscent of an English country cottage. Adding to this impression are the stone walls, arched windows, black and white half-timbering on the gable, and the visible chimney stack. The garden surrounds, with views overlooking the South China Sea, are notable for the old boundary wall, and a wide variety of trees, shrubs and flowers complete the austere, rural appearance.
The restaurant was rated a Grade II historic building in 1981. It was recently closed and tables and chairs inside have been cleared.
Urban exploration is based on the principles of take nothing except picture, leave no trace and not revealing the location.
