With the support of Swire Archives, the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department has recently installed three interpretive panels along part of the Hong Kong Trail, telling the story of the old Taikoo cable car system that connected the refinery and dockyard with the “Sanitarium” summer accommodation block on Mount Parker. Illustrated with photographs from the Swire Group’s archives, the panels are part of an effort to raise awareness of historic relics along the Quarry Bay Extension of the hiking trail in Tai Tam Country Park. Swire Archives has also helped with the production of a video and a webinar featuring the hidden stories of Mount Parker and the Taikoo company town.
