Die Sieben Masken des Judoka - Heinz Drache (1967) - Ap Lei Chau, Aberdeen Harbour

Ap Lei Chau is the small island on the opposite side of the harbour to Aberdeen. Now a combination of Govt housing estates and luxury residential developments it still has some boat yards centred on the eastern waterfront. However, as you can see from the following confrontation, the boat building industry on the island was once significantly larger. There are a few of familiar buildings to be seen in the following grabs such as the old Police Station (seen in the background of images 2 and 3), the construction of the original Shek Pai Wan estate (top right image 3). Aberdeen Seminary (image 1 and 4) and the Aberdeen Technical School (background of image 5). Apart from the original Shek Pai Wan estate, which had to be rebuilt, they are all still in use.
