Choi Hung Estate
Something of a local
icon, the vibrant Choi
Hung Estate is one
of the oldest public
housing estates in all
of Hong Kong. Literally
meaning ‘Rainbow
Estate’, this bright and
beaming backdrop,
painted eight different
colours, is a perennial
Instagram favourite.
Choi Hung Estate
was built in the 1960s,
and given a splash of
colours as a way to
uplift the spirits of the
residents. The best area
for photos is located at
the basketball courts on
the carpark’s rooftop.
