This is a rather excellent view of Cheung Sha Wan. Cheung Sha Wan Rd curving around with Hing Wah St intersecting it on the right hand side.

Centre left is St Raphael's Cemetery and the section bottom right is now the Sham Shui Po Sports Ground. One of the white buildings at the base of the hill will be the Carlton Hotel, but I'm not sure which one it is (rightmost?) wit the So Uk estate underneath. Far left will be the former Govt quarters at Pipers Hill on Caldecotte Rd.
