Tourists eagerly plan return trips for opening of old Hong Kong police station
Tourists are eagerly anticipating the opening up of Hong Kong's old Yau Ma Tei police station, the Post has found, while five of the other newly introduced 'hotspot projects' have received little attention in visitors' guides online.
Visitors who spoke to the Post on Wednesday morning expressed their enthusiasm for the nine tourist hotspot projects unveiled by the government the day before as part of efforts to boost tourism.
But most said they would only be staying in Hong Kong for a day or two.
'Visiting the police station is a very in-depth experience; we saw it in the old movies. If the station opens up more, it will definitely encourage us to visit again and go inside if we have time,' a visitor surnamed Zhu said.
Zhu, 28, said he had come to the city from Jiangsu province for the first time alongside his partner, with the couple planning to spend five days in the city.
'We have only come for a few days, but now we want to come back again,' he said.
