Walking down the hill and passed through the Victoria Detention Centre, a jail in the old days. This linkbridge made me think of Calle Scolastica in Venice.....

Central Police Station, just next to the Victoria Detention Centre. The pedestrian is so narrow that you may feel the pressure of the building if you walk along there.

Just a few steps up there is a public market, which is rare now in Business District like Central. The second photo is a shop famous in  "stockings milk tea".

I have the same feeling as chin that your photo skill improves a lot..... And the photos are so colorful... Did you use a filter, or did you enhanced the color by PS ?
