Crowded and cosmopolitan, dead Hong Kong is no different from the breathing city. Tombstones jostle for space at this Christian cemetery (c 1845) located on Wong Nai Chung Rd alongside the Jewish, Hindu, Parsee and Muslim Cemeteries, and St Michael’s Catholic Cemetery. Burial plots date to the mid-1800s and include colonialists, tycoons and silver- screen divas.
After exiting the MTR, follow Russell St, turn left into Wong Nai Chung Rd, and walk south for 15 minutes. The entrances of the cemeteries are scattered close to each other, opposite the public entrance of the Happy Valley Racecourse.
