Wan Chai Public Swimming Pool. For Lisa.

Lisa wants to know how to find the public swimming pool in Wan Chai:

Morrison Hill Swimming Pool.

It's too hard to explain in words so, since a picture paints a thousand of them ...


Lisa, you walk down Hennessy Road towards Causeway Bay, until you come to Nathan's place:


You know Nathan's, right? Of course you do! Has those amazing boneless stuffed chicken wings!

Well, see the basketball courts opposite:

On the left of the court is a set of stairs:

Go up them, and at the top of those stairs you see:

Go straight down that street. Cross the road towards those trees. Immediately behind that building is this one:

They are so fussy about no photos,
I got in trouble for taking this one.

If you're not Lisa and are looking for a swimming pool in Wan Chai to escape this awful humidity, here are the facts:

It costs HK$19.00
to get in and they prefer you pay by Octopus Card.

You also need a HK$5.00 coin for the slot to get yourself a locker.

Oh, and they disinfect you with an antiseptic shower and wading pool before you're allowed into the water, so hope you're not allergic. And there's too much chlorine in the pools so make sure you bring goggles.
