The Cemeteries
Wong Nai Chung Rd. Daily 8am-6pm. Free. The series of terraced hillside cemeteries west of the racecourse provides an interesting snapshot of the territory’s ethnic and religious mix during the mid-nineteenth-century, with separate enclosures for Muslim, Catholic, Protestant (the largest, with a berth for Lord Napier, the first Chief Superintendent of Trade with China), Parsee and Jewish inhabitants.
