Military cemetery Stanley, Hong Kong
Military cemetery Stanley, Hong Kong 2017
Stanley Military Cemetery (Chinese: 赤柱軍人墳場) is a cemetery located near St. Stephen's Beach in Stanley, Hong Kong. Along with the larger Hong Kong (Happy Valley) Cemetery, it is one of two military cemeteries of the early colonial era, used for the burials of the members of the garrison and their families between 1841 and 1866. There were no further burials here until World War II (1939–1945).
The cemetery is roughly triangular in shape and stands on ground rising sharply from the road side. It is approached by a flight of steps leading up to the Cross of Sacrifice with steep grassy slopes on either side.

香港旅遊 / 好景點 (116) Hong Kong Stanley 赤柱村 聖士提反泳灣 St. Stephen's Beach
Stanley (Chinese: 赤柱) is a coastal town and a tourist attraction in Hong Kong. It is located on a peninsula on Hong Kong Island. It is east of Repulse Bay and west of Shek O, adjacent to Chung Hom Kok. Administratively, it is part of the Southern District.
The Chinese name Chek Chue refers to the original village-town but Stanley generally refers to all the surrounding areas of the peninsula on Hong Kong Island.
here are two possible origins of the name Chek Chue.
Legend has it that the notorious pirate Cheung Po Tsai was active in Stanley. That is why the district became known in Cantonese as Chak Chue (Chinese: 賊柱; literally: Bandit's Post). There was once a Cheung Po Tsai Cave near the Tin Hau Temple west of Stanley, but the cave was filled in the early 1950s.
The original Cantonese name of the village was believed to be based on a big tall cotton tree (Bombax malabaricum, Bombax ceiba 木棉樹) often covered with bright red blossoms at the time, hence red pillar (赤柱) in Hakka language.
It was given an English name after Lord Stanley (subsequently Earl of Derby), British Colonial Secretary at the time of the cession of Hong Kong to the United Kingdom, and subsequently Prime Minister.[1]
History
After the annexation of Hong Kong in 1842, the British made Stanley the temporary administrative centre, before moving it to the newly founded Victoria City (present day Central) on Hong Kong Island.
Stanley Fort was where British and Canadian troops mounted a last stand during the Battle of Hong Kong. The survivors surrendered to Japanese forces in December 1941. The fort, which was the former British Army barracks in Stanley, is now occupied by the People's Liberation Army following the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong to the People's Republic of China in 1997.

Stanley Market
Tin Hau Temple
Stanley Market [3] is situated in Stanley New Street near the Stanley food market. It is an array of small shops and street stalls.
Pat Kan Uk is a row of eight houses. Many people think they are abandoned pre-war buildings but each of them is still a home to local elders. There were eight houses belonging to farming families in Wong Ma Kok before the Sino-Japanese War. The government recovered the land to develop barracks and a terrace of eight houses was built here as relocation homes for the local residents.
Stanley Main Street
Stanley has many bars and restaurants on its waterfront along Stanley Main Street.
To the west of Stanley Main Street, past the amphitheatre in Stanley Plaza is the Tin Hau Temple (Temple of the Queen of Heaven). Built by Cheung Po Tsai in 1767, it is one of the oldest temples in Hong Kong.
Murray House
Murray House
Main article: Murray House
Murray House is a Victorian-era building originally built in the present-day business district of Central in 1846 as officers' quarters of the Murray Barracks, the building was relocated to Stanley during the 2000s.
Stanley Plaza [4]
Adjacent to Murray House and Lung Tak Court, Stanley Plaza opened in 2001. It includes a shopping arcade and an outdoor community amphitheatre. The complex is owned by The Link REIT. Numerous free concerts and events are held in the amphitheatre throughout the year. In November 2011 Stanley Plaza reopened after a major renovation which was part of the transfer from government ownership to Link REIT ownership. A number of Asian and western restaurants, a good supermarket, Starbucks, McDonald's and a variety of shops can be found in Stanley Plaza. Well integrated with the Stanley Main Street waterfront and historic Murray House, Stanley Plaza provides convenient access to nearby tourist spots such as Tin Hau Temple and Stanley Ma Hang Park.
赤柱（英語：Stanley）位於香港島南區赤柱半島，淺水灣以東、石澳以西，是著名旅遊景點。
赤柱以前有很多木棉樹，樹上有鮮紅色的花朵，在日出的陽光照耀下，樹木看起來像赤紅色的柱，因而稱為「赤柱」
赤柱自古便是香港島主要聚居地之一。明代重要地方志《粵大記》已標有赤柱地名。
水上人漁民，源自遠古百越族，自遠古時代開始就在廣東一帶聚居，他們是香港最早的居民。赤柱，曾經有不少水上人聚集，船影處處，不過時代轉變，今日已不見漁船。1841年5月由英國人進行的首次人口統計，在香港島的4280名原住民其中超過2000人就是在赤柱一帶，當時有相當多的水上人。當1842年香港成為英國殖民地，而維多利亞城又未落成時，赤柱曾是當時香港島的首府。後來雖然行政中心改為設於香港島中上環區，但赤柱仍然作為西方人為主的住宅區之一。
此外，赤柱亦是香港島軍事據點。清朝時期，赤柱已有名為赤柱汛的營汛。香港於1930年代的英國殖民地時期，英軍為防範日本侵略所以在黃麻角設立赤柱軍營。興建軍營期間因為原址及附近一帶有農民居住，香港政府於是在赤柱大街興築了八間平房來安置原住民，即現在的八間屋。

Bus 91 passes Silverstrand beach north of Hang Hau before reaching Tai Au Mun; if you wish, you can get off at Silverstrand and go for a dip. If you're heading for Lung Ha Wan, get off the bus at Tai Au Mun Village and start walking. From Sai Kung, take bus 92 to where Hiram's Hwy and Clearwater Bay Rd meet and change there to bus 91.
From Tai Au Mun, Tai Au Mun Rd leads south to two fine, sandy beaches: Clearwater Bay First Beach (清水灣一灘) and, a bit further southwest, Clearwater Bay Second Beach (清水灣二灘). In summer try to go during the week, as both beaches get very crowded on the weekend.
