I·CARE Hong Kong Cultural Tours Project: Recruitment of Docents

Hong Kong has a pivotal role in international context.  Not only does this city occupy an important position in the history of modern China, but it is also inextricably linked with countries around the world.  Nevertheless, how much do you know about the stories of this “Pearl of the East”?
