Years ago, I came across this structure at the tip of Cape D'Aguilar. If it's a pillbox, it's making no effort to hide itself as it's sticking out like a sore thumb on top of a rocky outcrop. (There's a Panoramio picture of the structure on Google Earth.) Can anyone throw some light on this? Cheers. <Read more ...>

A pillbox above Chiu Yuen Cemetery.

This little Pillbox is located in the corner of the small beach behind the Bus depot in Shek O. If you have not been there before there is a little Bar called "The Back Beach Bar" which is a fantastic place to "Re-hydrate" after a walk or a day on the beach. It very reasonably priced with beers $20/Bottle, right next to the beach, with a great view. Perfect before/after having a Thai meal. <Read more ...>
I went for a little walk a couple of weeks ago from Tai Tam to Shek O. Along the way I took a couple of photos of the Pillbox right on the waters edge opposite Red Hill. <Read more ...>
