Bath Room

Ching Shu Hin Guest House, Ping Shan, Hong Kong view map

Even the doorway of the bath room is decorated beautifully.

The baroque flower and leafy plaster mouldings
above the arched doorway are rarely found in traditional Chinese buildings.
It demonstrates the popularity of western influence in the period.

Hi CM, This is a very attractive photo. I am a HK resident and I have seen similar houses. But these otherwise ordinary scenes become magically aritistic through your camera. V

The sense of detail is incredible
It is too bad this desire to make homes this nice is almost gone
or reserved only for the ones who can afford this.
Superb...as always.
