Story of the product:
The weather cleared up and how today . Decided had to make hay while the sun shines . . . The banyan tree wall on the Forbes street is synonymous to Kennedy town. Decided to capture this historical symbol of Kennedy town. . According to @mtrhk , there are approximately 1,000 masonry wall trees grown from openings in 500 masonry stone retaining walls in Hong Kong. Forbes Street Masonry Wall Trees represent the widest and the oldest among them. The old masonry wall and banyan trees form a stunning “fresco” which is beautifully preserved for over a century. . According to @scmpnews the practice of growing trees directly on walls originated with 19th century Guangdong masonry workers known as the Wu Hua. The colonial government had a policy of using mostly Chinese banyan trees, whose powerful roots strengthened retaining walls on slopes, helping prevent landslides.
