e welcome you to Hong Kong and to CityLife, the monthly magazine for visitors to Asia’s World City. May brings another busy period for the city, packed with fun-filled and unique events perfect for visitors. It’s not an exaggeration to anoint May as the month of deities, as several revered deities are celebrated, and, along with them, festivals and special events. The most famous one, and quirky, is the Cheung Chau Bun Festival, which celebrates Pai Tak, a well-known deity. Besides all the colourful pageantry, which includes offerings to gods, dancing, floats and parades, the highlight is the iconic bun-grabbing competition in which contestants clamber up 60-foot bun towers to grab as many lucky buns as possible. If you happen to be in town, you’ll not want to miss this one-of-a kind event. May also celebrates the Buddha’s Birthday as many Buddhist shrines, temples and monasteries perform elaborate ceremonies and rituals. The largest celebration will take place at Po Lin Monastery, site of the Big Buddha. The birthday of Tam Kung, an important local deity and protector of fishermen, is also celebrated. The largest ceremony takes place at the Tam Kung Temple in Shau Kei Wan on Hong Kong Island. Another longstanding cultural event is Le French May Arts Festival, now in its 27th edition. The festival has grown over the years to become one of the largest French arts festivals in Asia, with over 500 events scheduled for the period. Whether you are a Francophile or not, you may want to catch the French spirit, which is alive and well in Hong Kong. The northwest part of the New Territories of Hong Kong is home of the city’s only wetlands, which are protected. Most of the area remain rural with old villages still standing after centuries of habitation. Our cover story on page 10 showcases the area’s nature and heritage spots for visitors, including the best sunset photo spot in Hong Kong. Sports fans may want to catch the pulsating, nonstop action as the city hosts the Mega Ice Hockey 5s tournament which, over the years, has grown to be one of the largest ice-hockey tournaments in Asia, with teams from the regions plus local clubs competing in various age groups. How about enjoying arts that don’t burn a hole in your pocket? The Affordable Art Festival gains in popularity each year, showcasing works by promising and wellknown artists of all stripes that you can browse through or purchase at an affordable budget. Finally, for opera lovers, the Hong Kong Opera performs Mozart’s masterpiece, Don Giovani. Follow the travails of Don Juan and hum to some of your favourite arias for a musical night out. Whether it’s a colourful and fun-filled festival, a visit to the tranquil wetlands of the northwest, taking in ice-hockey action, attending art fairs and the opera, May is another month full of activities that will enthral visitors. We hope your stay in Hong Kong is enjoyable and enlightening.

Buddha's Birthday

The Birthday of the Buddha (Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of Buddhism, also known as Sakyamuni), also called the Buddha Bathing Festival, is one of the most spiritual and unique festivals celebrated in Hong Kong. According to legend, nine dragons sprayed water to bathe the baby Buddha at birth. Thus, on his birthday, devotees gather at Buddhist temples to bathe statues of him, in a ritual that is believed to aid in the purification of one’s soul. One of the grandest ceremonies is held at the Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island, home of the Big Buddha.

佛誕

每年佛誕,全港佛堂寺廟都有禮佛慶典和浴佛法會,其中以大嶼山寶蓮禪寺的活 動最盛大。佛誕又稱「浴佛節」,相傳佛祖出生時,天上有九條龍噴下清泉為他 沐浴,所以日後佛誕都有這個儀式。如今善信會以香湯沐浴佛身,寓意以佛祖的 智能,洗滌污濁,淨化心靈。同樣蘊藏禪理的還有賀誕食品蒝荽餅,其味帶甘 苦,寓意人生苦盡甘來。

Cheung Chau Bun Festival

One of Hong Kong’s more colourful and unusual festivals, the Cheung Chau Bun Festival on one of the city’s idyllic outlying islands celebrates the deity Pak Tai, whom the islanders petitioned to ward off evil spirits by parading statues of deities through the narrow lanes of their village during an outbreak of the plague. The plague ended after the performance of these Taoist rituals and 100 years later the rituals are still performed in a festival that is listed as an intangible part of China’s cultural heritage. The weeklong event includes Taoist ceremonies and music, a parade, lion dances, drum beating, culminating in a unique Bun Scrambling competition at midnight of the last day of celebration where contestants scamper up 60-foot bun towers to grab as many lucky buns as possible. Billed one of the world’s “Top 10 Quirky Local Festivals”, this is an event attended by thousands of visitors who join the locals in a fun-filled and unique celebration.

THE UNLUCKY GOVERNOR 堅恩上尉

Arthur Hacker tells us that Sir William Robinson lacked some Irish luck. 亞瑟·克赫為我們講述前港督羅便臣爵士的倒霉經歷。

I

t is said “that it is better to be born lucky than to be born rich.” Unlike his predecessor, Governor Sir William des Voeux (presiding from 1887-1891), Sir William Robinson (1891-1898) was of humble birth. But he was also a very unlucky governor. D e s Vo e u x h a d b e e n a c h a r m i n g , lackadaisical aristocrat who had spent much of his posting shooting snipe on the Yangtze and adored giving parties. ln 1890 he took almost a year's leave; public works ground almost to a halt. However, he did build a new ballroom for Government House and drained the pond at the race track. At the time there was a golf course at Happy Valley. Des Voeux, a golf enthusiast, lost so many balls in the pond that he had it filled in. Lady luck did not smile on the governorship of his successor Sir William Robinson (18911898). He was probably selected as “a safe pair of hands” to tidy up the mess left by Des Voeux. He had spent 37 years in the British Colonial Service and had worked his way up through the ranks from being a humble clerk. Shortly after he arrived in the colony there was a currency crisis,

followed by an outbreak of bubonic plague. This caused a mass evacuation of Chinese residences to the mainland and Hong Kong was declared an infected port. It was not Robinson's fault – he just arrived at an unfortunate time. He managed to cope with these problems, but received little credit from the expatriate community for his efforts. Business was badly affected. At the time there was a popular saying that “power in Hong Kong resides in the Jockey Club, Jardine and Matheson, the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank and the Governor – in that order.” A question had been asked in the UK Parliament about Hong Kong's gambling laws. The colony actually had a Gambling Ordinance but it was totally unenforceable and previous governors had sensibly ignored it. However, Robinson felt obliged to play by the rules and banned gambling on horse racing at Happy Valley The governor, his wife and daughter were among the few spectators who actually turned up to the dismal following four-day race meeting, only to be confronted by a notice that read: “DIED: The Hongkong Races, aged 50, from an overdose of

有 說富 「」與更生令俱人來響的往運。氣港比督與羅生便俱臣來爵的 士財

(1897-1898) 似乎天生就缺乏好運氣,不想前總 督德輔爵士 (1887-1891) 般,得到幸運之神的 眷顧。 前總督德輔爵士有着一股貴族悠閒自得的高 貴魅力,喜到長江獵鷸,熱愛舉行派對。 1890 年,他放了一個差不多長達一年的悠長假期。公 共事務因此而差不多完全停頓。但是,德輔爵士 並非全無貢獻的。他在港督府建了一個舞廳,把 馬場池塘的水排走。那時候的跑馬地馬場設有高 爾夫球場,熱愛高爾夫球的德輔爵士就是因九那 池塘,不知丟了多少高爾夫球,因此非把池塘填 滿不可。 幸運之神並不眷顧下一任港督羅便臣爵士。 他是擁有Γ可靠之手」的理想人選,奉命接替德 輔爵士,把前港督的爛攤子處理好。羅便臣爵 士在其他殖民地服務了 37 年,開始時由一個小 小的職員做起。但是,很不幸,羅便臣爵士來港 不久就發生了貨幣危機,瘟疫更緊接而來。這使 許多中國居民撤退到中國內地,香港更被視九疫 區。這並非羅便臣爵士的錯,他只是不夠幸運而 已。他努力解決種種問題,但人們對他的努力似 乎不太欣賞。生意大受影響。


grandmotherly legislation. The funeral will take place at Happy Valley tomorrow at 5 o'clock. Resurgam.”

那時候香港流行一種說法 : 「香港最有權力的機構依次是香港賽馬 會、怡和集團、匯豐銀行、港督。」

And indeed, the power of the Jockey Club, Jardines and the Bank proved too great for Robinson and betting returned to Happy Valley. Ironically Robinson enjoyed a game of poker on most Saturday nights, at an establishment on Breezy Path.

英國國會曾商討有關香港的賭博法律事宜,香港那時的賭博條例 完全不能執行,而歷屆港督每每有意無意地對此不聞不問。但是,羅 便臣爵士認為自己有責任執行賭博法例,禁止賽馬賭博。羅便臣爵 士、他的太太和女兒來到馬場觀奏,卻看到以下啟示 :

When he was invited to give a talk to the Odd Volumes Society, Robinson unfortunately chose to lecture on “samples of Irish wit and humour” and for two hours he bombarded his audience of distinguished academics, intellectuals, pedagogues and missionaries with bad Irish jokes. To wit, “Now Paddy is always either cracking jokes or heads" said Robinson, "so much so that it has been asked: ‘What articles used at dessert are most Irishmen like? Why, nutcrackers of course!” His excellency concluded: “Some of you may say, Sir William, there is no end to your wit,' to which l would reply, ‘Heaven forbid that I should be at my wit's end.’

「死亡啟示:擁有 50 年曆史的香港國際賽事,由於那婆婆媽媽的 法例,現正式宣告死亡。葬禮將於明日下午 5 日寸於跑馬地舉行。但 難保會死灰復燃。」 最後,跑馬地馬場還是照常舉行賽事,可見香港賽馬會和怡和集 團的權力確實比港督還要大。可憐的羅便臣爵士沒有被英國國會責 備,反而受到歷史的譴責。諷刺的是,主張禁賭的羅便臣爵士在多個 週末的晚上喜到卑利士道的一幢建築物玩撲克牌。 羅便臣爵士應 Odd Volumes Society 的邀請進行演講,很不 幸,他以「愛爾蘭的風趣幽默」為演講主題。他在兩小時裡不斷為聽 眾講述愛爾蘭的有味笑話,聽眾包括著名學者、知識分子、教師、傳 教士等。羅便臣說 : 「愛爾蘭人 Paddy 不是愛說笑 (crack jokes) 就 是愛撞擊頭部 (crackheads) 。」又道 : 「愛爾蘭人最喜歡用什麼來弄 甜品 ? 當然是胡桃鉗 (nut cracker) ! 」他的總結非常巧妙 : 「你可能會 問,羅便臣爵士,你的笑話似乎永遠說不完的呢。我會這樣答你,上 天不允許我在笑話中完結的。」

There is a Robinson Road in Mid-levels and at one time there was another one in Kowloon, but both were named after a previous governor, Sir Hercules Robinson (1859-1867). Poor, unlucky Sir William Robinson was not honoured in this manner. He was, in fact, the only Victorian governor not to have a street named after him.■

半山區和九龍各有一條羅便臣道。但這兩條羅便臣道都是以前港 督夏喬 · 羅便臣爵士 (1859-1867) 而命名的。倒霉的威廉 · 羅便臣沒有 得到這種待遇,他是唯一一位沒有街道名稱的港督。■

nlike the classic Hitchcock thriller, North By North West, there is no imposing Mount Rushmore in this part of the New Territories. Still, this expansive northwestern region – which includes the satellite towns of Yuen Long, Tin Shui Wai and Tuen Mun, along with numerous rural villages dotted throughout the landscape – offers plentiful delights for the intrepid visitor willing to invest a bit of time and effort to get there. Formed by the alluvial plains of Shenzhen and Shan Pui Rivers and framed in the background by several mountains including Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong’s tallest peak, this area is home to ecologically sensitive wetlands, muddy flats and beaches, mangrove swamps, rice paddies, and old walled villages interspersed with burgeoning developments. In stark contrast, looming across the border are skyscrapers of the Shenzhen metropolis.

莫爾山那樣威風凜凜的山。這邊地勢廣闊,有元朗、 天水圍、以及更西向的屯門等衛星城市,風景優美的 眾多鄉村,以及深圳及其近乎越過邊境的摩天大樓, 想必很多喜歡探險的遊客會喜歡這裡,尋找刺激和風 景。

這片生態區由深圳河和山貝河的沖積平原構成,並 由大帽山、以及香港最高山峰在內的幾座山脈圍住。 這裡有有脆弱的生態濕地和海灘、紅樹林沼澤、稻 田、古老的圍牆村莊,歷史悠久但仍蓬勃發展。 我們為您精心準備了一天遊玩路線,搭乘公共交通 即可,全程玩下來,十分充實,還可以欣賞與你想像 中完全不同的香港!

Kat Hing Wai Walled Village 吉慶圍 Centuries ago, most of the New Territories was settled by village clans who built walled villages to congregate and defend themselves. Kat Hing Wai, located in Kam Tin, is one of the best-known and bestpreserved. Built over 500 years ago by the Tang clan, one of five major clans in the New Territories, the village was protected on four sides by thick walls (almost 18 feet deep) and one open gate. The village measures roughly 100 by 90 metres. The ancient village houses inside are long gone, replaced by densely packed “ding houses” – the modern village house prevalent in the New Territories, set in a grid inside the village compound. However, the moat outside and the guard houses have survived. About 400 people reside in the village, with many homes now rented to outsiders, a sign of changing times. There is a nominal tribute to get into the gate ($3) and a clan temple lies at the other end, offering a tantalising glimpse into the past.

幾個世紀以前,大部分新界都是村 民群居而生,當年盜寇猖獗,村民遂 以青磚築成圍牆抵禦。位於錦田的吉 慶圍是最知名,保存最完好的一個。 這個已有500多年曆史的古老圍城,由 新界五大氏族之一的鄧氏而建。四面 圍著厚厚的牆壁(近 18 英尺),只有 一扇很窄的門,村莊長約90到100米。 裡面的古老村舍早已不復存在,取而 代之的是密集的“丁屋”和新界流行 的新式村屋。然而,外面的護城河和 警衛室都倖存了下來。該村約有 400 人,其中許多都租給外人,盡顯時代 變遷之感。進村需要交3港幣的費用, 以顯示敬意,門對著的另一端是氏族 寺廟,這是歷史最好的見證者。

MTR Kam Sheung Road Station, Exit B. Walk to Kam Po Road through footbridge and then turn to Kam Sheung Road. It takes around 20 minutes from Kam Po Road to Kat Hing Wai.

從港鐵錦上路站 B 出口,經人行天 橋至錦莆路再前往錦上路,步行約 20 分鐘。

COVER STORY 封面故事

Nam Sang Wai (near Yuen Long) 南生圍 (近元朗) An important wetland reserve crisscrossed by two small rivers, Nam Sang Wai is far removed from the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong. Popular with birdwatchers, hikers, cyclists, photographers and romantic couples, Nam San Wai offers unspoiled rustic scenery of mudflats, farms and fish ponds, languished rivers, tall reeds and mangroves and treelined paths. Start your journey where Nam Sang Wai Road joins the main road, either by bicycle or on foot and follow the river northwards. Photogenic spots abound along the route. The road turns back southwards at the junction with another river. Keep walking or cycling either along the road or on the path until you reach the famous Wedding Bridge for your obligatory photoshoot. A short distance further and you’ll come to Hong Kong’s only river ferry, a little sampan that carries passengers across a narrow river (maybe 30 metres) for a fee. You may choose to do that and return to Yuen Long or you can retrace your steps. What amazes is that amidst the tranquillity and rustic beauty, a glance in the other direction reveals the high-rise buildings of Yuen Long and the looming skyline of Shenzhen beyond.

這裡是重要的濕地保護區, 兩條小河縱橫交錯,遠離香港 喧囂。很多徒步旅行者、愛鳥人 士、愛好騎車人士、攝影師乃 至情侶,都喜歡來這裡,欣賞自 然,蜿蜒的河流、茂密的蘆葦 叢,紅樹林以及泥濘的林萌小 路。 從主幹道前往南生圍入口, 可以騎車也可以步行,沿著河流 一路向北。這一路可以拍很多照 片。在河流交匯處繼續向南行 進,直到著名的婚禮橋,這裡是 眾多遊客選擇拍照的地方。繼續 步行一小段路,您可以看到香港 唯一的內河渡輪,一艘小舢板, 將乘客帶到狹窄的河流對岸(可 能是 30 米),是要收費的。您可 以選擇乘船回到元朗,或是原路 返回。在寧靜和質樸的美景中, 您只需向另一個方向看,即可看 到元朗的高樓大廈和遠處深圳若 隱若現的天際線。

The Hong Kong Wetland Park and Mai Po Nature Reserve 香港濕地公園和米埔自然保護區

If ecology is your thing, you will want to visit the Hong Kong Wetland Park or the Mai Po Nature Reserve, both important wetland sanctuaries, as an alternative to Nam Sang Wai since it may be difficult to fit more than one of them in one day. As a permit is required to enter the Mai Po Nature Reserve, it is best to book an eco-tour through WWF who manages the reserve. The Wetland Park, which is located near the satellite town of Tin Shui Wai, is open daily but closes at 5pm for visitors. Both serve as important sanctuaries for a myriad of migratory birds as well as a haven for an abundant selection of butterflies, reptiles and other fauna.

12 www.hkcitylife.com | MAY 2019

如果你對生態感興趣,除了南生圍,還可以選 擇香港濕地公園和米埔自然保護區其中之一,因 為很難在一天打卡兩處。此外,米埔自然保護區 需要提前向世界自然基金會香港分會預訂,因為 它限制遊客人數,需要許可方可進入。濕地公園 位於天水圍衛星城附近,每天開放,但下午5點關 閉。們都是無數候鳥的重要庇護所,也是蝴蝶、 爬行動物和其他動物的避風港。


Ha Pak Nai 下白泥 The coastline on the northwest boundary of Hong Kong along Shenzhen Bay (Deep Bay) is recognised as having the best sunset photo-spots. The best-known is in Ha Pak Nai, or more accurately in Ap Tsai Hang just before Ha Pak Nai. The shoreline, looking across to Shenzhen’s Shekou, is dotted with fish ponds. The shallow muddy beaches strewn with mangroves extend out during low tide, offering unparalleled sunset images combining the land, the shimmering sea, and the sky.

香港西北角沿深圳灣(后海灣)的海 岸線,以擁有最佳的日落攝影點而聞 名。其中以下白泥最為出名,或者更 準確地說是下白泥的鴨仔坑。橫跨深 圳蛇口的海岸線旁,魚塘星羅棋布。 退潮時,佈滿紅樹林的淺泥海灘顯露 出來,日落時分,這裡宛若一幅畫, 波光粼粼的大海,縹緲的天際線,相 互映襯,無與倫比。

From Yuen Long MTR Station, walk to Tai Fung Street, take the green minibus No. 33 and get off at Ap Tsai Hang. Continue walking along the path next to the river to reach the mudflats.

由元朗地鐵站步行至泰豐街,乘 33號專線小巴在鴨仔坑下車。沿著河 邊的小路漫步到下白泥。

Hong Kong Gold Coast and Sham Tseng 香港黃金海岸和深井 After a day of sightseeing and walking, you’ll likely want to treat yourself to a nice dinner and a wind-down. Choose either the Hong Kong Gold Coast, a complex comprising a resort hotel, a retail plaza and a yacht marina, where several large yachts are berthed. Pick any of the restaurants in the plaza and enjoy a relaxed meal and stroll along the waterfront promenade to check out the marina, the yachts and the hotel nearby. Or, further down, you could choose to stop at Sham Tseng village and enjoy a hearty meal at one of the several famous roast goose restaurants. It’s a winner either way. From Yuen Long Station, take West Rail and get off at Tuen Mun Station. Take a taxi to Hong Kong Gold Coast or Sham Tseng or take KMB bus 52X from Kowloon.

一天的觀光之後,請自己吃一頓 美味,放鬆一下。您可以選擇香港黃 金海岸,一個包括度假酒店,零售廣 場和停泊著幾艘大型遊艇碼頭的綜合 體。選擇任意一家餐廳,酒足飯飽 後,漫步在海濱長廊,仰望星空,欣 賞夜景。或者選擇順路去深井,在最 有名的烤鵝餐廳里大飽口福,兩種方 式,各具特色,都十分推薦! 由元朗站乘西鐵,屯門站下車; 還可以乘坐的士前往黃金海岸或深 井;或乘搭的士往屯門中央巴士總 站,九龍巴士52X線。

By day or in the evening, take a moment to enjoy the many enchanting aspects of Hong Kong, a step beyond the crowds.

Enc han ting

Ho ng Ko ng 陶醉 香港 之美

無論是白天還是晚上,都可以到這個繁華的城市來 欣賞它迷人的一面。

H

ong Kong is famous for being one of the world’s most global cities and all that entails: vibrant, dynamic, hyperkinetic energy, skyscrapers, busy streets and thronging crowds walking at breakneck speed. Yet, amidst all the frenzy, the city offers more than glimpses of an enchanting side that will charm and delight, and which won’t take you long to reach. Whether it’s a quiet and restful park in the heart of the city, a serene walk along a picturesque promenade, beautiful gardens, a quaint and peaceful island, a nice respite from your hectic sightseeing and an instant energy recharge is never far away. CityLife is happy to show you some of the most enchanting spots and things to do in Hong Kong. Relax and enjoy!

以 國際化聞名的香港,它時刻保持活力,充滿新奇,積極向 上;摩天大樓、繁忙街道以及熙熙攘攘的人群快速往來。然 而,在所有瘋狂的喧囂之外,不遠處這座城市還有完全不同的一 面,自然寧靜。市中心寧靜而舒適的公園,風景如畫的海濱長廊, 美麗獨特的花園,靜謐安逸的島嶼,這些都讓你在繁忙中逐漸平 靜,享受自我。 《東方之珠》為您精心推薦幾處打卡地,讓您沉 溺於獨特的香港之美!

Enchanting Park – Hong Kong Park

陶醉於香港公園

Among the city’s multitude of urban parks, for sheer solitude and relaxation, you can’t beat Hong Kong Park, a sprawling urban space between Central and Admiralty, nestled among the skyscrapers. Nicely landscaped, with a large children’s playground, the park contains the hidden treasure of a majestic aviary with a large collection of exotic birds. Chill in the park’s gardens or check out its historical buildings, including the Flagstaff House Tea Ware Museum. An hour or two in this oasis and you are good to hit the town again. 城市公園遍布全城。香港公園位於中環和金鐘之間,坐落 在摩天大樓之間。公園風景優美,有一個大型兒童遊樂 場,可以看到大型鳥舍和多種異國情調的鳥類。在公園的 花園裡坐下來放鬆身心,參觀附近的茶具文物館,您一定 會愛上那裡。

Enchanting Garden – Nan Lian Garden and Chi Lin Nunnery

陶醉於南蓮園池和志蓮淨苑

Located in the foothills of Lion Rock, Kowloon’s most distinctive mountain, the Nan Lian Garden and Chi Lin Nunnery stand out for their tranquillity. Visitors find respite in the elegant Tang Dynasty–style architecture and the immaculately landscaped gardens and ponds. It’s one of the city’s most beautiful spots and a real hidden gem. 南蓮園池和志蓮淨苑位於九龍最獨特的獅子山的山麓下。 遊客可以在優雅的唐代風格建築和完美無瑕的園景花園景 色中找到放鬆身心。堪稱是這個城市最美麗的景點之一, 寧靜祥和。

Enchanting Waterfront Walk – Promenade between Deep Water Bay and Repulse Bay 陶醉於深水灣和淺水灣之間的 海濱長廊

There are so many waterfront walks to choose from. Our favourite is the one between Deep Water Bay and Repulse Bay, a 20-minute stroll full of visual treats. Start at Deep Water Bay, you’ll see luxury yachts and dinghies out on the water as you pass through a narrow channel past Middle Island. Ocean Park and its famed cable car ride stand out in the distance across the glimmering South China Sea. Before the path leads to Repulse Bay and its wide beach, you’ll have a clear and panoramic view of the sands, the luxury high-rise buildings behind and the mountains beyond. You may want to check out the Kwun Yum Temple complex at the end of the beach or enjoy a nice afternoon tea at one of the beachfront dining outlets or the grand ole Verandah on the main road above – notable for its famous afternoon tea set, a most enchanting occasion indeed. 有這麼多的海濱散步可供選擇。我們最喜歡的是在深水灣和淺水灣之間的一個 20分鐘迷人的步行充滿視覺享受。從深水灣出發,你會看到豪華遊艇和帆船在 水上航行,通過狹窄的海峽,熨波洲就在對面。海洋公園的纜車在波光粼粼的 海面上格外引人注目。到淺水灣及其廣闊的海灘之前的一段路,給您提供了觀 賞海灘全景的角度,後面是豪華建築和眾多群山。此外您還可以在附近餐館觀 音寺,或是去露台餐廳享用一餐下午茶,絕對是難忘又舒心的一天。

FEATURE STORY 專題故事

Enchanting Dinner – Peak Lookout

陶醉于太平山餐廳的晚餐

How about a romantic dinner at the Peak, Hong Kong’s most famous tourist destination, and enjoy a lovely meal with splendid views of the hillsides below and islands beyond? That’s exactly what you’ll experience at the Peak Lookout, an elegant restaurant housed in a historic building. The terrace outside offers unimpeded view of Pok Fu Lam Reservoir and Aberdeen. To work up an appetite beforehand, take a stroll around the Peak Circle Walk which starts and ends right next to the restaurant and which offers spectacular views of Hong Kong in all directions along the way. 在香港最負盛名的旅遊景點——太平山頂享用一頓浪漫的晚餐, 順便飽覽山下和海島的美景。太平山餐廳,一家坐落在歷史建築 中的優雅餐廳就可以讓您享受這般待遇。戶外露台可一覽薄扶林 水塘及香港仔的景色。您可以在用餐前,沿著山頂環行道散步, 環繞一圈欣賞美景後,回到餐廳大飽一餐。

Enchanting Hike – Tai Tam Reservoirs

陶醉于大潭水塘

This is an easy walk if you start from Parkview on top of Wong Nai Chung Gap as the route is all downhill or flat. This delightful walk takes you through wooded hillsides framed by green mountains on all sides and tranquil reservoirs. Several stone arch bridges crossing the reservoirs are both architecturally beautiful and historically significant and are declared monuments. It’s a perfect expedition for the whole family or for couples. The walk ends at Tai Tam Road where you can go to Stanley, another idyllic village not far away, or back into town, both accessible by frequent bus. 從黃泥湧峽的陽明山莊開始步行,十分輕鬆,整段路程都是下坡 路或平坦的。一家人或是情侶來這邊郊遊,穿過綠樹成蔭的樹林 和寧靜平和的水庫,跨越水庫幾座建築獨特的石拱橋,將是一次 完美的體驗。終點是大潭路,您可以前往不遠處的另一個田園詩 般的村莊——赤柱,或者乘巴士回到市區。

Enchanting Seafront – Quarry Bay Promenade

陶醉于鰂魚涌海濱花園

We suggest you visit this other favourite of ours during the early evening. The waterfront promenade, which stretches from Quarry Bay to Sai Wan Ho in eastern Hong Kong Island, offers a quieter and more serene view of Victoria Harbour at night. Starting from Quarry Bay, a pet-walking area before the promenade is perfect for dog lovers. The promenade extends past Tai Koo Shing in the background, alongside a retired fireboat, the Alexander Grantham, and continues to Sai Wan Ho. The night views of Kowloon and the mountains behind as well as the narrow Lei Yue Mun pass ahead can be mesmerising. Enjoy a relaxing drink or dinner at one of the alfresco outlets in Soho East before you head back. 我們建議您在傍晚去到這裡。海濱長廊由鰂魚涌伸展至香港島 東部的西灣河,在晚上可欣賞維多利亞港的景色,少有人知十 分安靜。如果您從鰂魚涌出發,會看到很多愛狗人士在這裡遛 狗。這條長廊以太古城為背景,沿路還會看到葛量洪號滅火輪 展覽館。九龍的夜景、身後的群山,以及狹窄的鯉魚門,都令 人著迷。記得在附近的蘇豪東餐廳吃點東西,放鬆身心。

Enchanted Island – Peng Chau 陶醉於坪洲島

There are so many delightful islands to choose from, although a few are well-trodden by tourists. Less so is Peng Chau, a quaint and homely island just off east Lantau, not far from Discovery Bay. A few thousand residents live here at a pace a notch down from even Chueng Chau or Lamma. It won’t take long for you to catch the same vibe. There is an easy and enjoyable heritage trail, while a modest scamper up to the highest point, Finger Point, rewards you with 360-degree view of Lantau, Hong Kong Island and South China Sea. You can unwind and enjoy a simple but delicious seafood meal at the local restaurant on the way back. Take the ferry from Central Pier Number 6, there and back. 香港有很多知名小島,遊客很多,但古朴的坪洲不同,人跡罕至, 距離愉景灣很近。這座小島以其悠閒的生活方式和相對的與世隔絕 而聞名,島上居住著幾千名居民。這裡有一條輕鬆的徒步路徑,一 路可以到達最高點,全景欣賞大嶼山、香港島和中國南海。您可以 在回來的路上在當地餐廳享用美味的海鮮。從中環六號碼頭乘渡輪 往返。

V

ictoria City Restaurant has been a culinary institution since it was established in the 1980s, and is best known for its exquisitely prepared dim sum, quality seafood, and refined Cantonese dishes. Through the years, the restaurant has garnered numerous local and international awards, becoming a well-known gathering place for celebrities of all stripes as well as attracting discerning gourmet tourists from abroad. To k e e p a b r e a s t , Vi c t o r i a C i t y R e s t a u r a n t recently underwent an extensive renovation and repositioning, introducing an array of new Cantonese cuisine that not only caters to its loyal clientele, but also appeals to the younger, affluent generation of discerning foodies and diners. The restaurant adopts a retro-chic look while retaining its spacious setup and 180-degree view of the harbour. In addition to introducing innovative dishes that make use of quality ingredients from all over the world, notable changes including greater emphasis on presentation for camera-toting diners, availability of singleportion dishes, and providing a more bespoke dining experience. We were there to sample the new tasting menu. But we couldn’t resist a little of its famous dim sum first, which was not included. The three chosen were Deep-fried Taro Puff with Foie Gras ($55), Steamed Minced Pork Dumplings ($48) and Shrimp Dumpling with Assorted Vegetables ($48). Dim sum is served only at lunchtime. If you are in the mood, the dim sum here stacks up against any in town. On to the tasting menu. We began with an appetiser combination of Char-grilled Dried

www.hkcitylife.com | MAY 2019

Pufferfish ($128), the lightly char-grilled pufferfish coated in secret seasoning, and Deep-fried Rice Crackers with Salted Egg Yolk ($98). A fine slowboiled soup is obligatory in any refined Cantonese meal, and ours was the Supreme Soup with Conch and Ginseng ($208/head) which was flavourful and savoury. A trio of seafood dishes came next. The first was Sea Garoupa and Radish in Supreme Soup ($220/ head) in which fresh garoupa is cooked with daikons in a rich stock. Then came the Braised Supreme Trio (South African Abalone (6 heads), Goose Feet and Chinese Mushroom ($268/head), an always highlyprized delicacy. Last was Deep-fried Prawn with Wasabi and Mango Aioli ($248/head) – the fruit and prawn combining for a juicy and zesty bite. We kept going. Two meat dishes were served: Slow-cooked Beef Ribs in Red Wine Sauce ($108/ head) in which the beef ribs are fried to golden and slow-cooked with red wine, and Roasted Crispy Chicken ($220/half portion) – this original recipe calls the chicken to be coated in egg-white and left to air overnight before being infused with special seasoning and bathed in boiling oil. The gourmet meal ends with a light dessert, Braised Pear with Dried Tangerine Peel and Peach Resin ($68/head), which was fitting. The tasting menu we sampled is priced at $1323 per person, or you can order the dishes individually as priced. When it comes to the finest Cantonese fining dining, Victoria City Restaurant continues to set a high bar. You should give it a try.■

ine-pairing with Chinese meals continues its heady popularity and is still winning fans. It’s an occasion to savour and celebrate any time excellent food is paired with well-chosen vintages. Among all the Chinese cuisines, we submit that Cantonese dishes are best paired with fine wines, in part due to the more subtle and refined Cantonese cooking methods which tend to best bring out the complementarity of food and wine. That was certainly the case when we had the opportunity to visit Loong Yuen for a sumptuous wine-paired meal. Located at the Holiday Inn Golden Mile in Tsim Sha Tsui, Loong Yuen – which means “The Garden of Dragons” – is a much-loved Cantonese restaurant catering to a large cadre of loyal customers and visitors alike. The restaurant serves classical and contemporary Cantonese food including dim sum, seafood and innovative dishes.

For this dining occasion, we wanted to highlight the visual appeal of the dishes, all of which were all Roasted Whole Spanish Iberico Pork 香烤原件黑豚肉

immaculately prepared and presented. The adage that “a picture is worth a thousand words” is never truer here and so we always allowed the camera to enjoy the first bite, and we want to accord our readers the same pleasure. The dishes served were a mix of seafood and meats. The seafood is best served with semi-dry, white wines such as Pinot Grigio or Chablis. We were also pleasantly surprised that medium-bodied Italian wines chosen were also excellent fits for the pork, lamb and oxtail dishes. The meal ended with three desserts: Baked Egg Tart($50) and Deep fried Egg Dough with Fresh Ginger($60) and Sweetened Bean curd Pudding flavored with Ginger($98), which wrapped up the meal nicely. Enjoy the visual feast, and if you are in the mood for an exquisite Cantonese meal paired with just the right wines, give Loong Yuen a try, and let the manager help you with wine selection.■

Pica Pica

The vibrant dining scene in Sheung Wan recently welcomed an exciting addition – Pica Pica – Spanish for “a little of this, a little of that”. The contemporary Spanish tapas bar is operated by the Epicurean Group, one of the city’s leading dining groups, and helmed by Spanish chef Edgar Sanuy. Pica Pica offers a small-plate menu inspired by regional Spanish cooking methods and drawing on Chef Sanuy’s own culinary experience throughout Europe and Asia, using healthy ingredients for its dishes. Pica Pica also serves a nice collection of Spanish beers and wines plus its signature authentic Sangria recipes. We sampled a slew of the menu’s tapas offerings, which are perfect for social gatherings or for just chilling out. We started with the Tomato Bread with Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil ($30) together with “Rusa” Potato Salad ($65), a traditional Spanish salad. Next came Slow-cooked egg, Morcilla, Potato Foam ($85, lunch only) and the Iberico ham croquette ($15/piece) deep-fried golden brown. They were followed by Octopus Galician Style on Potato “al caliu” ($130), Spanish Lazy Omelette with Morcilla & Choizo ($65), Spanish potato omelette medium rare ($55), and Bikini Sandwich ($90) of grilled chicken. Several paellas are available, we chose Black Paella Rice ($115/ small and $195/bigger), which comes with prawns and clams. We managed two desserts: Catalan cream foam, vanilla ice cream ($50) and Dark Chocolate, hazelnut, extra virgin olive oil, salt ($70). It’s amazing how much food one can consume while chatting and nibbling. What sets Pica Pica apart is both its friendly and relaxed ambience and the healthy, tasty food. We are sure that Pica Pica will make its mark in Sheung Wan soon enough. Give it a visit if you are anywhere nearby.

上環美食的最新成員 Pica Pica ,是一間現代西班牙小食酒吧, Pica Pica 的原意是「這點一些、那些一點」,由饕餮集團經營,是 香港領先的餐飲集團之一,由西班牙廚師 Edgar Sanuy 掌舵。菜式 的原念來自西班牙地方菜的煮食方法和主廚自己的烹飪經驗,以新鮮 食材準備小碟菜式,在享用美食之餘還要保證健康。除了美饌外,還 有獨家釀製的西班牙水果酒,以及多款的西班牙酒品和啤酒。 我們品嚐了多款小吃,每道菜都適合與一群好友同享。首先 的 是 番茄蓉麵包配西班牙初榨橄欖油 ( $30 ),還有 傳統西班牙薯仔沙律 ( $65 ),以及 慢煮蛋配芝士薯肉泡 ( $85/ 只限午餐)和 炸至金黃的 黑毛豬火腿炸薯餅( $15 / 塊)。值得一提的是 八爪魚配薯蓉( $130 ) 和 懶人煎蛋奄列 ( $65 ), 西班牙薯餅 ( $55 )和 西班牙特色三明治 ($90)這款三明治裡面為雞肉餡,香酥可口。 我們在幾款海鮮飯中,選擇了 西班牙鍋飯 ($115/ 小份; $195/ 大份),配料是大蝦和蛤蜊;還要為大家強烈推薦兩款甜品:焦糖忌廉配 雲呢拿蛋糕 ($70) 和 純朱古力榛子配特級初榨橄欖油及鹽 ($70) ,一邊享 用食物一邊與朋友暢聊,會讓人享用更多美食。 Pica Pica 的與眾不同在於放鬆的環境和健康美味的食物,想必 不久的將來必定成為上環標誌性美食,歡迎您來品嚐。

Dong Lai Shun 東來順 told the mutton is exclusively supplied to Dong Lai Shun, as attested by the soft and tender brisket. Check out the delightful sour and spicy dishes at Dong Lai Shun – perfect for the season.

Dong Lai Shun, one of the best Northern Chinese cuisine restaurants in Hong Kong, is offering its Spring menu showcasing zesty and refreshing sour and spicy dishes. The restaurant has a venerable pedigree as the original Dong Lai Shun was established in Beijing over a century ago, serving authentic Beijing dishes including the famous roasted Beijing duck. For his spring menu, Head Chef Sze Chiu-kwan has crafted a list of sour and spicy dishes using Chinese vinegar, chilli, and seasonal ingredients. Chef Sze’s concoctions tend to be lighter than traditional Szechuan spicy dishes, with the sourness and spiciness less dominating for the palate, which help bring out the flavours of the underlying ingredients.

The dishes sampled included three starters: Chilled Beef Fillet & Bean Jelly Noodles with Sour and Spicy Flavour ($298) in which lightly poached beef fillet is served with a mixture of lychee vinegar, chopped apple and chilli and jelly noodles; Marinated Sour and Spicy Flavor White Bitter Melon ($138) – a light and refreshing dish; and Chilled Sour and Spicy Flavor Ox Tripe ($138) which is quite flavourful. For main dishes, we had the signature Poached Mandarin Fish with Sour and Spicy Vegetables ($528) in which the fish is poached in fresh tomatoes and preserved vegetable soup, the poaching allows the meat to retain its tender texture. The other dish is Braised Mutton with Sour and Spicy Broth ($388) – we were

東來順提供中國北方美食,現推出春季菜單。餐廳歷史悠 久,最老牌的東來順一個多世紀以前於北京創建,供應正宗北 京風味,以北京烤鴨最為出名。 在其春季菜單上,主廚特意設計出一系列開胃酸辣美饌, 使用了中國醋、辣椒和季節性食材。與傳統的四川麻辣菜式不 同,調製品往往比較清淡,酸味和辣味不占主導地位,這有助 於讓食客嚐到菜品原有的味道。 我們品嚐了三道開胃菜: 涼拌酸辣牛肉粉皮($298),配以荔 枝醋、蘋果碎、辣椒和冷面;醃酸辣白苦瓜($138),香辣牛肚 絲($138),非常美味。 主菜值得推薦的是:貴陽酸菜煮桂魚($528) 軟滑的桂魚上 加入新鮮番茄,桂魚入口鮮嫩,味道辣帶酸甜。另一道菜是酸 湯羊肉($388),羊肉是內蒙古獨家供應給東來順的,嫩滑可口。 酸辣美饌非常適合這個季節,歡迎大家光臨帝苑酒店東來 順。

OUTWARD BOUND – GBA & BEYOND 內地探索——粵港澳大灣區及周邊

HOLIDAY PARADISE –

CLUB MED GUILIN 度 假 胜 地 —— CLUB MED 桂林探索 Enjoy a stress-free and pampered vacation for the whole family at the scenic Club Med Guilin 在風景秀麗的桂林,和您的家人和朋友享受短途週末遊

T

he recently completed High-Speed Rail is certainly helping Hong Kong to connect faster to the cities in the Greater Bay area (GBA) and beyond. This greater connectedness of Hong Kong serves international visitors looking to visit the Greater Bay Area and beyond. For instance, a vacation trip from Hong Kong to Guilin, one of China’s major tourist destinations, now takes only three hours by highspeed rail. Our trip to Club Med Guilin started with a smooth and relaxing ride on the HighSpeed Rail from West Kowloon to Guilin. At speeds reaching in excess of 300 kilometres an hour, the high-speed rail experience is travel in a 21st-century mode. We arrived on time and refreshed, two distinct advantages that rail has over air travel. Club Med, which started in France, pioneered the all-inclusive holiday village concept; a stay there is a unique and immersive experience, which means a worryfree vacation, the whole family fully pampered, and a totally interactive and engaging vacation. Club Med Guilin, an hour away from the city, comprises a vast 46-hectare facility located in a picturesque valley nestled amongst the famous karst mountains of Guilin. The grounds are immaculately and artfully landscaped with beautiful gardens, ponds, a large natural pool, wide lawns with imposing stone sculptures and uber-size animal sculptures. The resort village has several kids’ clubs catering to different age groups offering a plethora of activities including swimming, cycling, arts and crafts, etc. There are also plentiful activities for adults, such as golf, rock climbing, and mountain biking. It also has a luxurious spa offering various packages.

隨 着廣深港高鐵香港段於西九龍正式通車,香港與內 地的連接越來越便捷,到訪內地城市十分方便。

便捷的交通吸引越來越多人到訪香港,外國遊客也可以從香 港出發,到大灣區或是周邊城市旅行。桂林是主要目的地之 一,只需三小時的高鐵即可到達。

我們這次的桂林度假之旅從西九龍高鐵站開始,高速便 捷,時速為每小時300多公里,沿線風景優美,相比飛機,高 鐵的優勢在於準時舒適。

Club Med 於1950年在法國創立,開創了「精緻一價全 包假期」的全新度假理念,創立了兒童俱樂部,適合家庭旅 行,放鬆又清閒,通過法式元素的融入,打造難忘的度假體 驗。 位於桂林的 Club Med 距離市區僅一小時車程,佔地46 公頃,坐落在風景如畫的喀斯特山區山谷中。公園裡有美麗 的花園、池塘、一個天然游泳池、寬闊的草坪、壯觀的石雕 和超大尺寸的動物雕塑。度假村設有不同年齡組別的兒童俱 樂部,提供各種活動,游泳、騎車、手工藝製作等等。大人 們可以享受多種活動,如高爾夫,攀岩,山地自行車等。還 有水療美容中心,提供專業的美容及按摩療程。

Atelier 大樓是度假村的中心,可在此盡情使用休息室、 院、自助餐 及酒吧等。我們最喜歡面吧,提供當地特色麵食 和亞洲風味面吧,尤其推薦桂林米粉!

The heart of the dining and social activities is the Atelier, which houses a lounge, a theatre space, an international buffet restaurant, a large bar area, and more. There are other dining outlets including the noodle bar, our favourite, where you can order the locally famous Guilin Noodles as latenight snacks. What makes Club Med tick, though, is their staff and the unique way they serve guests. Called GO (Gracious Organisers), the international staff come from countries all over the world. The general manager of the resort is called a Village Chief. Together, they immerse themselves in serving their guests. In plain terms, guests dine, drink, play, and party with the staff, day and night. There are nightly performances and shows put on by the GOs themselves and led by the village chief himself. Their enthusiasm is infectious.

Club Med 的成功之處在於他們的員工為客人提供服務的方式與眾不同。 GO 團隊的員工來自世界各地,度假村的總經理被稱為村長,他們全身心地為 客人服務。簡而言之,他們不分晝夜地與工作人員一起吃飯、喝酒、玩耍和聚 會,由村長親自帶隊,一起參加政府舉辦的夜間表演和節目。 他們提供一日三餐,而且每餐都是豪華自助,千萬不要錯過晚餐後的派 對,員工都會送上精彩表演,帶大家一起狂歡。

Club Med 提供前往觀光景點的一日遊服務。遊項目包括漓江竹筏之旅,漓 江是桂林的地標性河流,而竹筏漂流體驗也是桂林獨特的項目——沿著漓江, 乘著竹筏,一路欣賞桂林美景和奇特的喀斯特地貌。 茶舍也是這邊的一大特色,旁邊山坡上的梯田茶園風景如畫,除了拍照片 外,還可以自己採茶,他們會幫您烘乾加工,作為紀念品帶回家。

All meals are covered, with sumptuous buffets available for each meal. After dinner is when all the action is as the Bar becomes party central with the GOs performing, leading and encouraging all to dance. Club Med offers day trips to famous sightseeing destinations. Our outings included a bamboo raft trip down the Li River, Guilin’s iconic river. A bamboo raft offers a water’s edge experience – the floating raft gliding along the water as you watch the geologically wondrous karst mountains surrounding the river passing by. The other outing is a visit to a tea plantation for which Guilin is famous. The picturesque terraced tea plantations dotting the valley slopes are great for de-stressing. We even picked our own tea leaves straight from the trees, which were dried on site and brought home as a souvenir.

For May and June, Club Med Guilin is offering a four-day, three-night inclusive package (accommodation, all meals, snacks, drinks at the bar, Kids Club, activities, night entertainment, etc.) for a family of four starting from $10,666. It’s also promoting a summer package at a discount of up to 40 percent. For more details call 3111 9388, or email sales.hongkong@clubmed.com or go to www.clubmed.com.hk. 五月和六月, Club Med 桂林四口之家提供四天三晚住宿套餐(住宿,所有餐點,小吃,酒吧, 兒童俱樂部,活動及娛樂等),價格 $10,666 港幣起。目前還推出高達 40% 折扣的夏季套餐 ( 限量供應 ) 。詳情請致電 3111 9388,或發送電子郵件至 sales.hongkong@clubmed.com 或 訪問 www.clubmed.com.hk了解更多詳情。

Using Hong Kong as a hub to travel to the Greater Bay Area and beyond makes a lot of sense, it’s convenient and fast – with plenty to do if you stop over en route. 歡迎各位以香港為樞紐,前往大灣區或其他內地城市旅行,方便快捷,千萬別錯過! MAY 2019

Hong Kong Heritage Museum

The Hong Kong Jockey Club Series: A History of the World in 100 Objects from the British Museum 18 May 2019 – 9 Sep 2019 The exhibition originated from a popular radio programme of the BBC with the British Museum, telling the story of human civilisation using 100 objects selected from the encyclopedic collections of the British Museum. Unlike traditional narratives that focus on selected periods or cultural zones, this exhibition reviews the common stories of human development in a new perspective. Tracing human activity from 2 million years ago to the present, the stories behind the objects reveal how mankind in various areas and cultures shared similar aspirations and development in aspects of power, belief, art, trading and technology. Through this broadened vision, visitors may gain new inspiration about the world we live.

The scoop on some of the best art showrooms and their current exhibitions

‘XU ZHEN® solo show’ at Perrotin 25 Mar - 11 May Xu Zhen’s provocative aesthetics rely on both conceptual and pop strategies. He first undertook behavioural and cultural experiments as an autonomous artist via controversial performances and videos. From the improbable encounter between Japanese bondage and voodoo fetishes, to Buddha statues forcing themselves into duplicates of GrecoRoman gods, the collision between cultural symbols allows him to subtly touch upon the various power struggles of human history. 50 Connaught Road Central, 17th Floor - Hong Kong; Tue-Sat, 11am-7pm; 3758 2180; www.perrotin.com

‘Intangible Journeys – Somyot Hananuntasuk Solo’ at Affinity Art 15 Mar - 18 May Having spent the last 40 years in Munich, Germany, the Thai artist has found himself at a moment of pause, lending his solo exhibition an air of intensely personal introspection. Like a photograph captures a singular event, each of Hananuntasuk’s canvases captures moments of inner reflection and bearing instinctive insignia of lived moments and emotions. Here they are strung together so the artist’s oeuvre can be read as a thorough, albeit elusive, timeline of experience. 1/F, 1 Queen's Road West, Sheung Wan; Tue-Fri: 12:30pm-7pm; Sat: 12pm-5pm; www.affinityforart.com; 3173 8626

"The Sublime of Chinese Intelligentsia" << 文人美學 >> at Oi Ling Antiques ‘Claire Deniau | All that glitter is gold’ at Galerie KOO 2 - 25 May Galerie KOO is delighted to present “All that glitter is gold” by Claire Deniau. Originally, gold is a rare, precious, and divine material, reserved for worship and an emblem of wealth. These qualities are still relevant today, even though gold has also become a tool for consumption. 7/F Vogue Building, 67 Wyndham Street, Central; Tue - Fri : 11am-7pm; Sat: 12pm- 5pm; Sun & Mon: By appt; www.galeriekoo. one; 2525 0331

24 May to 8 Jun The words "Xian Sheng" < 先生 > describe someone who is highly educated and wise. In the late Ming dynasty, the lifting of the maritime embargo created a huge group of middle class who accumulated great wealth and thereafter aspired to have the taste and aesthetics of the elite class. Many "Xian Sheng" were consulted for advice in all aspects of refined living. The exhibition, “The Sublime of the Intelligentsia” provides a window for us to revisit the exquisite sophistication of the scholar class of Old China. Oi Ling, 72 Hollywood Road, Central, Hong Kong; 10am - 7pm (Mon - Sat), 1pm - 6.30pm (Sunday); 2815 9422; www.oilingantiques.com

名人訪談

Sporting Legends Visit the

HONG KONG SEVENS Meet Michael Johnson, Li Xiao Peng and other goodwill ambassadors of Laureus at the Hong Kong Sevens. 「香港國際七人欖球賽」官方慈善機構「勞倫斯世界體育公益 計劃」大使邁克爾 · 約翰遜、李小鵬與我們分享他們的傳奇人生

Li Xiao Peng

T

he Hong Kong Sevens, the city’s premier sporting event, which was held on 5-7 April last month, was once again a smashing success, with 120,000 rugby fans jammed into Hong Kong Stadium over three exciting days of non-stop rugby action, entertainment and fun. Fiji – adopted by many Hong Kong fans as their own home team – won the tournament again, their 19th success in 44 tournaments. This year, the Sevens was graced by the presence of several sporting legends who came as goodwill ambassadors for Laureus, the official charity of HK Sevens, an international organisation based in London that uses the power of sport to transform the lives of children and young people and to end violence, discrimination and disadvantage. A large cadre of sporting legends from all over the world have joined Laureus as ambassadors, giving their time and effort to promote these highly worthwhile causes. This year, schoolgirls from Laos were invited to Hong Kong, along with children with special needs from local schools, to attend the Sevens and take part in other activities. Among the Laureus ambassadors attending the Sevens were Michael Johnson, one of the greatest track athletes of all time, and Li Xiao Peng, the Chinese gymnast who won four Olympic gold medals. Michael Johnson, known for his upright running style and nicknamed “The man with the golden shoes”, is still the only athlete to have won the 200m and 400m events at any Olympics – in 1996, a hugely difficult task by any measure. He held the record for 200 metres and 400 metres for 12 and 17 years respectively until they were broken by Usain Bolt in 2008 and Wade van Niekerk of South Africa in 2016. He was part of the world record-winning 4x400 metres relay team in Stuttgart in 1993 – a record that still stands today. When reminded that he has never lost a race in all 16 major championship races over his career – no silver, no bronze – Johnson quipped “I have nothing against silver or bronze, I just don’t like them myself”. Johnson, who has pretty much fully recovered from a recent stroke, recounts that “during recovery, it took me about 15 minutes to walk the 200 metres around the hospital block, a distance I could normally run in under 20 seconds. But I used the same focused and dedicated approach as in athletics to help with my recovery”. Johnson enthusiastically lauds the efforts of Laureus to use sports to help change disadvantaged children worldwide. It’s fitting that Johnson is bringing that indomitable spirit and dedication to his personal recovery and the worthy cause of Laureus – a truly great champion indeed.
