Richshaw No. 40 - with wooden wheels
Nice to see a coloured photo of one of the original wooden-wheeled rickshaws surviving into the 1950's ... and with No.40 licence plate as well. With such a low number, this conveyance must have witnessed some interesting happenings over the years.
33 Carnarvon Road
The building on the left was located at 33 Carnarvon Road. An earlier photo of the building from 1951 can be viewed at: https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/search/2/image?page=12&phrase=hong%20kong%201950s&sort=mostpopular&license=rf%2Crm
Rickshaws were commonly seen at this junction as the Grand Hotel (not in view) was across the road.
