Air-photo taken in 1949
The air-photo taken in 1949 can be found in Maps Sales Office on 23rd floor of Jave Road Govt Offices Buildings, Lands Department HQ. Public can purchase a copy if they so wish.
By overlapping two adjacent air-photos and viewing them with stereoscope provided free at the counter, one can actually see an 3-D Wanchai Govt School, the surrounding white short walls and the big banyan tree. It is fantastic to see an upright WGS as in 1949.
