"Choi Hung" in Cantonese means rainbow.
Originally designed in the 1960s to provide the residents of Ngau Chi Wan with affordable housing, this block of flats has since become a must-see for visitors to Hong Kong, with its aesthetic appeal and bright basketball courts. Just be warned, the colours in real-life are nowhere near as vibrant as they look on the photos you see, so don't be disappointed if you find the facade looking a little more faded than you expected.
