Hong Kong 香港 Sunset Survivors 夕陽餘暉

‘Sunset Survivors’ is a coffee table book by Lindsay Varty that tells the stories of Hong Kong’s traditional tradesmen and women through stunning imagery and candid interviews. Covering a myriad of curious professions that are quickly falling into obscurity, readers soon find themselves immersed in the streets of old Hong Kong. This Yau Ma Tei walking route will bring you to five of the people and their shops featured in the book. “夕陽餘暉” 作者華蓮絲帶領讀者走訪城市各地,拜訪日漸式微的傳統工業及在其中掙扎求存的本地職人,並將他們娓娓道來的軼事輯錄成書。這條油麻地路線將會帶你認識書中其中五位受訪職人和他們的故事。
