1955 Tsuen Wan ? Wong Tai Sin?

Submitted by Toishan ABC on Tue, 2021-01-12 20:21

1955 in Sai Kung ?

To me this looks like somewhere in Sai Kung with Hiram's Highway and Clear Water Bay Road  in the background ? What say you? All suggestions welcome!

I've added a red line to show the confusing road numbering for the south side of Robinson Road. The red line traces the imaginary route of a postman walking from 57 Robinson Road at the right, to 93 Robinson Road at the left.
