PROJECT BACKGROUND

Lei Yue Mun is a place rich in local history. It’s the place where different traditional industries flourished in the past. As this area has been developing rapidly in the recent years, the precious history has gradually faded from people’s memory. Likewise, the epidemic has driven many local tourists to look for some hidden tourist attractions in Hong Kong. As a result, Lei Yue Mun Quarry has become popular and crowded with tourists in the past few years. This architecture explores how the precious history of this place can be extended and the ways to balance and encourage interaction between the tourists and local residents.
