EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of community and fitness in Hong Kong's parks during the 1980s. In the foreground, a man and woman engage in the traditional Chinese practice of shadow boxing, their focused expressions and fluid movements reflecting their dedication to the art. The elderly woman in black trousers and a white or grey printed blouse, sitting to the left of the image, adds a sense of tranquility and wisdom to the scene. The lush rows of trees in the background provide a serene backdrop, while the presence of other people in the park suggests a larger community of health-conscious individuals enjoying the outdoors. Shadow boxing, or "daquan," has long been a popular practice in Chinese culture, with roots dating back over a thousand years. It is believed to improve flexibility, coordination, and overall fitness, making it a beloved pastime for people of all ages. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and vibrant community life of Hong Kong during a bygone era.
