Yellow Emanuelle - Chai Lee (1977) - More Ching Chun Koon, Tuen Mun

The reason that I didn't include these screen caps with my earlier post on Ching Chun Koon is because it took me a while to figure out where this was. In the context of the film, this is supposed to be Emy's home where she lives with her father. In the last post we saw that in the movie she points up the hill towards Green and White Jade to indicate her house, but these garden scenes were all shot at the aforementioned temple. In the top image, the purple and white walled building in the background is called Man Ching House (晚晴樓) and is located on the west side of the temple complex. I believe it is the part of the complex that is designated as an old peoples' home.

There has been a bit of development since this film was made though. The Man Ching House and octagonal gateway, seen in the top image, are still around, but the ornate wall with its 9 dragon motif has been replaced by another structure.
