Last Days in Hong Kong


After Calvin's exams, we had one more day to do some sight-seeing in Hong Kong. We went to see the Hong Kong temple. It is so beautiful!



Across from the temple is a new church building that opened in June. There was an older building there that they tore down and replaced. We visited the mission offices that had been moved into the church building-they were previously inside the temple.



We also went to see the Hong Kong convention center.





We walked along the promenade in front of the convention center. Behind us you can see the tallest building on Hong Kong island, the IFC 2.


At the end of the day, we watched the light show that happens every night! It is almost 20 minutes long and is coordinated between many of the buildings on the island. It is so amazing! From the promenade across the harbor, music is played that goes along with the show.


Here is a short video of the show. It doesn't look as impressive as it really was because it is hard to see some of the lights on the video, but hopefully it will give you an idea of what it was like!

I hope you've enjoyed sharing this journey with us! Now on to some posts about what we're doing now!
