Circle Game

Before driving into the Eastern Harbour Tunnel on Hong Kong side, every eastbound driver has to turn about 270 degrees before the car or vehicle goes into the tunnel. While turning like swirls of water into a pipe, cars from two lanes have to merge into one. This always creates a circle game as well as danger of car collision if drivers lose patience, courtesy or lack of skill.

It is great fun to someone who loves turning around and around while driving down the circular road at Festival Walk(又一城) in Kowloon Tong. There are three floors down from ground level. The first level down is the pick-up or drop-off area for passengers of taxis, private cars or vans, ….. The next floor is for unloading goods to the shops inside this shopping centre. The lowest floor is a big car-park.

Once a driver is driving his car down the circular road, he has to be sober enough to make sure the right floor to go to! This circular road down the floors is too sharp and it keeps on turning and turning. To reach the car-park below, a driver has to turn at least 1080 degrees. It is an exciting and dizzy driving Circle Game!
