Just next to the aint Andrew’s Church is the Kowloon British School or rather the Antiquities and Monuments Office. Obviously, this place was a school in during the colonial times and it seemed to occupy a great location along Nathan Road. It served the children of expartriates in Hong Kong at that time and just like the nearby Saint Andrew’s Church, it has a traditional Victorian architecture.

It now serves as the Antiquities and Monuments Office, as it was a weekend, it was closed. Despite being in a great location along Nathan Road, this place seems rather inconspicuous, thus there were not a lot of visitors that day. It was fun exploring the building and it somehow brings you back in time. Unfortunately for me, I can’t get a good shot of this place since it was too close, I don’t own an ultra-wide angle lens and I only can step so far back. At least I post some photos of it so that it would become a little more well known.
