I have just received a photo from the secretary of the RHKPA in UK.He asks if I can identify the buildings in the photo attached.

I guess it is Kowloon but I have never lived in Kowloon so I am unfamiliar with the area.

Any idea of the history of the building and location please?

I wonder what's the occasion in this film? There are plenty of senior military people around, if that gives any clue.

The title for the film on Youtube is "Opening Ceremony of The University of Hong Kong". The original opening cermeony was back in 1912, so it shouldn't be that we're watching. Maybe a ceremony to celebrate opening some new buildings?

Main Building, University of Hong Kong [1912- ]
