The air is very good woman: hallelujah Hallelujah, Are you members of that church? So I can't believe I sneaked into someone's apartment How do you like it here? Your Cantonese sounds so good Yes, I'm so excited Encounters in Hong Kong during holiday Watch till the end to see it all In the 19th century, after Hong Kong had officially become a British colony in 1841. The British people, when they coming to Hong Kong, will bring their Christian traditions, such as Christmas And that was a very vital occasion for them As they continued to live here So as the years went by, the Christian tradition and the Chinese tradition had to blend and live together. And even up till now, when you get here in Hong Kong.
You’ll find out that there's a very strong blend of the Western culture and the Chinese culture and so today I'm here since it's Christmas festive season I'm here to show you how the blend is like how Christmas is here in Hong Kong I was here earlier within the year and there were still some places that people mentioned hey you got to visit this place you got it visit that place so I want to show you some of the places that I didn't visit when I was here earlier and I also show you the Christmas culture here in Hong Kong join me as I go on the street and show you different things here in Hong Kong now I'm on top of a rooftop right now take a look at the view it's just crazy right so and this is very common here in Hong Kong there are so many rooftops that you can explore But today, there are so many things to do and so many places to visit. I'm sure we’ll meet a lot of people alongside as well So I've got some people to meet personally. And they'll be in this vlog, So join me If you're ready, be sure to like the video Subscribe if you're new, let's go!
