description -
Hong Kong's Southside the glimmering southern shore of the main island is a weekend paradise of restaurants, markets and beaches. But Lorette has discovered much more.  Here are vignettes of the old villages, complete with traditional watchtowers, temples and scarecrows; sketches from visits to a pristine marine reserve; a sampan trip to see the fisherfolk, and a secret tunnel to underground wine cellars. See rugged shores and stunning mountain views, elegant Victorian waterworks, and riotous dragonboat races at Stanley beach!
