CIMETIÈRE DE GUERRE DE SAI WAN Victoria, Hong Kong
Le cimetière de guerre de Sai Wan se trouve au nord-est de l'Île de Hong Kong, dans la région de Chai Wan, à 11 kilomètres du centre de Victoria, la capitale de Hong Kong.
À l'entrée du cimetière, sur la route de Cape Collinson, s'élève un monument commémoratif en l'honneur des victimes décédées à Hong Kong qui n'ont pas de sépultures connues. À partir de là, le cimetière descend en pente vers la mer., et à l'origine, la vue sur le continent était magnifique.
Il est plus facile d'atteindre le cimetière en empruntant la ligne de chemin de fer publique (MTR) de Hong Kong jusqu'au Terminus de Chai Wan.
À partir du terminus, vous pouvez marcher jusqu'au cimetière en suivant la route de Chai Wan qui mène au carrefour giratoire. Là, tournez à l'ouest sur la route de Wan Tsui, puis tournez au sud-est et gravissez la route de Lin Shing pour atteindre la route de Cape Collinson. Le panneau annonçant la direction de la route CWCG est accroché à un mur qui longe la rue de Lin Shing.
La région de Cape Collinson comprend plusieurs cimetières. En escaladant cette route étroite à voie unique (Cape Collinson), vous pourrez apercevoir le cimetière catholique situé sur le versant de la colline, du côté gauche de la route, ainsi que le cimetière militaire de Hong Kong situé du côté droit. Le cimetière de guerre de Sai Wan se trouve à mi-chemin environ en montant la route de Cape Collinson, face aux cimetières musulman et bouddhiste. Vous pouvez également prendre un taxi à partir du terminus de Chai Wan et suivre la même route.
Ou, encore, vous pouvez monter à bord d'un petit autobus public qui prend la route No. 16M en partant du terminus de Chain Wan (MTR) et qui se rend à Stanley où il y a un autre cimetière militaire CWCG, le cimetière militaire de Stanley. En se rendant à Stanley, le petit autobus passe également devant le cimetière de guerre de Sai Wan. Il y arrêtera également, mais seulement si vous le demandez.
