RE: 100 Year History Challenge - worst fire in Hong Kong history 香港歷史最嚴重的火災

Wow @aaronli this is definitely the first time I've ever heard of this... what a disaster! I can't believe that 600+ were sent to their graves.

It's nice to hear that they were able to provide a proper burial and memorial for the victims though. I cannot imagine the efforts that were required to build it and transport all the bodies there.

I'm down to visit Hong Kong but I think I'll pass on the horses for now ;-)

Great post @aaronli! Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

There is also the Shatin racecourse, much bigger than the Happy valley!
