Description
The brainchild of iDiscovery’s Ester van Steekelenburg , this is a socially-conscious app with a map that helps users explore neighbourhoods along the tramline. Steekelenburg’s projects strive to rejuvenate heritage and encourage residents and visitors to see the value of a city’s local history.
This map compliments earlier projects that include a neighbourhood tour app of Sham Shui Po and Kowloon. The route includes 46 points of interest that highlight authentic and heritage places across categories of food, drink, sightseeing and shopping.
