Crowds gather at Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour to bid farewell to PLA Navy ships


Military enthusiasts have gathered on both sides of Victoria Harbour to bid farewell to two People’s Liberation Army naval ships at the end of their four-day port call in Hong Kong as part of the National Day celebrations.

Some fans, many of them from mainland China, arrived as early as 7am at the Tsim Sha Tsui harbourfront to secure a good spot to view training vessel Qi Jiguang and amphibious assault ship Yimeng Shan as they departed on Friday.
