Multiculturalism in Hong Kong

Last Wednesday was double 9s day, where it was the 9th day of the 9th month on the lunar calendar. The day is supposed to be full of yang and whatnot and for some reason, it's a national holiday so woot! Some friends and I went to Central for lunch and when we were walking around, we happened upon a cultural festival.

Hong Kong likes to boast that it's multicultural and even though it's definitely not as multicultural as Toronto, it still has a vibrant Filipino, Indian and West Asian population as seen here. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.


Cute little girls doing a Nepalese folk dance.


They ladies on stage were singing and dancing to disco. Awesome.


Such bright and colourful costumes!
