To explore a culture one can start with the question about local people growing older and the way they are treated by their surrounding. Our group, consisting of Mayumi ARAI, SUN Shih-Ting and Tobias Fandel, was seeking for some impressions about this matter by interviewing various elderly people in the streets, inside a retirement home, on a cemetery, in a park and even in a taxi.

Due to the importance of economical and financial issues for the Hong Kongers, the elderly generation needs to balance the stressful environment for example by doing Tai-Chi or traditional Chinese dancing in the parks, especially early in the morning.
