This week’s video explores the second of the two 1909 panoramas I received recently. The photos that make up the panorama are sharp enough that we can see details as far away as Lai Chi Kok, even though the photographer took the photos from mid-levels on Hong Kong island.
Panoramas of Hong Kong 1900-1999
Over the years I have collected a large number of panoramic photographs of Hong Kong so I thought I would collect them all on one page, together with other Panoramas posted on Gwulo, divided into decades. Some of the dating is approximate so please feel free to post corrections on the individual panoramas page
Part 1, Hong Kong 1842-1899 can be found here

I wasn't sure where to post the link to this ebook but here it is:

Some of the pictures are already posted elsewhere but still a good source.
