Ching Ming Festival

Thousands of Hongkongers braved heavy rains to observe Ching Ming Festival by sweeping tombs, with Wang Fuk Court survivors returning to the fire site to mourn victims. The outing occurred under thundery showers, prompting the Observatory to issue an amber rainstorm warning at 2.05pm. The blaze at the Tai Po estate on November 26 killed 168 people and displaced 5,000 others.
