300 yr old traditional Chinese house in town centre

300 yr old traditional Chinese house in town centre

We had breakfast at Mr Kim's on the river. He's been a chef around the world. His banana pancake ­with honey has been my favourite. With an Old Town ticket ­we visited a couple of old houses (300-500 years old and ­well preserved). They were built by Chinese and Japanese who were there at the time. My favourite had an Art Gallery inside. Above the doors were dragon eyes to keep out the bad spirits. At 7pm we saw a traditional show with dancing and music.For dinner we ­went in a small family cafe and I had Cantonese rice.
