I found this photo, and would like to know from what year appr. this was taken. Could that be the early Naval Barracks at Admiralty on the left.
Looking forward to your reply and thank you very much

Wanchai
Think this is Wanchai. The four buildings in the center at the waterfront are the Blue Buildings. Further to the right is Wellington Battery. The waterfront ends on the photo near todays Spring Garden Lane. More information see Wanchai's seafront in 1902 .
My estimate of time is before that, possibly 1880s.
Thank you
Thank you very much for the information, Klaus.
More 1870 than 1880
Found a similar photo in a book from 1872:
So your photo is ten years older than I first thought.
Early Waterfront
Thank you very much Klaus, for the update. Really appreciated.
Have a good day and best regards.
