Abdul Aziz Rumjahn (a.k.a. Arthur James Rumjahn) (1904 Hong Kong-2nd March 1975 Hong Kong) was a distant cousin of mine. This photo of him in Hong Kong has been given kind permission by his grandson to be posted here in gwulo after we recently made contact as part of my family history reserach.

He lived in Hong Kong his whole life. Does anyone recognise the beach? My first guess is Big Wave Bay on HK island but clarification would be welcome.

Abdul Aziz Rumjahn (a.k.a. Arthur James Rumjahn) (1904 Hong Kong-2nd March 1975 Hong Kong) was a distant cousin of mine. This photo of him in Hong Kong in 1934 has been given kind permission by his grandson to be posted here in gwulo after we recently made contact as part of my family history reserach.

The background is the distinctive Gloucester Building Clock Tower but does anyone know which roof top he was standing on? .
