Bridge just outside the Tai Po Government building

One of the older bridge in Hong Kong, rebuilt of course, linking the Tai Po Government office to the Old Tai Po Market, old , should be old, as inside the street market,there is an old Temple. This bridge should be the Kowng Fuk Bridge, in Autumn Festival, with the lighting, is quite good looking at night. One can imagine it liked the bridge in Florence,Italy. ( Not really, unless we add some Goldsmith stall and a wild boar stature.)

Bridge connects New and the not so new Tai Po

This Bridge connects the main road from Tai Po Centre to Old Tai Po Market.You can see the 4 main support at the bridge base. Basically, the design of the bridges in Tai Po repeats itself, differs only in the width and has its beauty in the simplicity and functional appeals. There are still some fishing boats sheltering under the bridge. Most may set off in the morning. Still some fishes find in Tolo harbour.
