Hong Kong seen from Jardine's Lookout

Taken from Jardine's Look Out. This is a 433 meter-tall hill that, according to the legend, was used by Jardine Matheson in the early days of the colony to keep an eye out for the firm's ships coming from overseas ports. Rumour has it that ships would display market information so that folks on the hilltop, thus Jardine workers were the first to have knowledge on price movements.
