Kowloon Canton Railway Clock Tower, Kowloon, Hong Kong

15 02 2008

The original Kowloon-Canton Railway was opened in 1911 as a rail link between Kowloon in Hong Kong, then a British crown colony, and the Chinese city of Canton (now Guangzhou). At Tsim Sha Tsui, on Kowloon, stand this impressive clock tower. A symbol of a bygone era. The clock tower is all that is left of the old station at Kowloon. In 1974, the station was relocated to Hung Hom. More Hong Kong pictures can be found on my site at www.picturesforwalls.com

Marrakesh images – Morocco, 2007

11 02 2008

Marrakesh is a city that shocks and surprises. The old part of town is just that – old. Almost biblical, the feel of this side of the city contrasts starkly with the wide, planned out avenues of the French quarter. Walking around here, you could easily be forgiven for thinking you were in LA or suchlike.
