On 10 January, ESC held a day trip to Wun Chuen Sin Kwoon for students to learn about the Taoism and take a glimpse of the traditional Hong Kong. They were impressed by the exotic building structures and customs.

Franz Breu, an exchange student from Leipzig Graduate School of Management, Germany said, “This is a unique experience for me to taste the local culture which is completely different from my country. I would like to join more activities like this!”

Our ESC member, Wilson Yeung, who went on exchange in University of Manitoba, Canada said, “I can see a different Hong Kong from my foreign friends’ perspective, which is quite surprising to me!”

CB wishes all exchange students enjoy their eye-opening exchange journey at CityU and in Hong Kong!
