Rhododendrons in full bloom on Waterloo Road

With the arrival of spring, striking pink rhododendrons have blanketed the campus of Maryknoll Convent School on Waterloo Road, igniting netizens' interest to witness the picturesque scene. 

A Facebook user shared photos of the blooming flowers in a photography group, captioning them “Stunning views of Maryknoll during the seasonal bloom.”

Netizens familiar with the area responded to the social media post, noting people could see the flowers when they pass by the school on the bus. 

For those planning to see the fabulous scene for themselves, several buses and green minibuses pass by the school daily, including bus routes 1, 1A, 3C, 81C, 87D and 281A.

Apart from the stunning blooms, the school in Kowloon Tong was declared a monument under the Antiquities and Monuments Ordinance.

The school has been providing quality education to Hong Kong since 1925. The main school complex, constructed in 1937, reflects several different styles of architecture including Art Deco, Romanesque, Neo-Georgian and Gothic Revival.
