Hi guys, love what you're doing on this site - always something good to read about our great city. I came across a unique building the other day which has been abandoned but is still guarded. I got a look around thanks to the guard but he had no information about it. Inside there was a lot of old dated knick-knacks - it was like time had stood still.
Wondered if anyone had any information on it - there were landscaped gardens now overgrown and in its heyday it must have been quite something. On all the maps I have seen it is a plain plot of land in front of what is today Camelot Heights on 66 Kennedy Road: http://www.emporis.com/building/camelot-heights-hong-kong-china
64

Any other places you can suggest would be nice too - we are planning to get a look at Jessville Mansion soon.
Love your site!
Cheers,

I have been to both Jessville and Ngan Shing Kwan Mansion :)
Hello I'm Vanessa. I went to Ngan Shing Kwan Mansion yesterday! However, I was not as lucky as you because the security guard was not there. I did try to ask "Is anyone here?" but no one replied me but an electrical fan was being turned on. Then, I took a few photos of the gate, mail box, and the garage. I also took a few photos of the building across the road but I did not enter the mansion.
Nevertheless, Jessville is even more beautiful. It is a hidden beauty in a hill. Here is my photo album you can check it out! I went to Jessville last October.

And here are two other photo albums of Jessville. One of them was taken in 2007 and another one was taken in mid 2013. I wonder how the second visitor could get inside Jessville!! There was a dog near the gate and I freaked out. I really want to know how s/he could do it!
