An unusual location for a circus and zoo to be next to the airport with aircraft landing overhead 

I don't think any photographs have surfaced that show any temporary circus infrastructure on the bus terminus 

Date picture taken (may be approximate): 
Monday, May 25, 1959
Gallery: 
1950s Hong Kong

As Wong Tai Sin is given, the location would be on the disused former Runway 13 extension across the nullah and road after the 'new' reclaimed runway had been opened in 1958.
