I noted some inaccuracy., 1,the Lantau peak was not Lantau Peak. I used to regularly hike Lantau Peak and Sunset Peak etc, 2, the "Star Ferry" was the Yau Ma Tei Vehicular Ferry.
Thank you for this, I did wonder when doing my research if everything was correct, unfortunatly my Father died several years ago so was unable to ask him.
You're right. That was Victoria Peak on Hong Kong island. You can see the scenic observation tower off the slope on the right. The ferry caught on tape was the Yaumatei vehicular ferry with the lower deck carrying vehicles while the upper deck was for passengers.

I was born that year. Therefore I have no memory of this. Thanks for sharing such precious footage.
👍🏻 I was there in 1963 , as a teenager student foreigner living in Kowloon . 🙂☕️🍰🍦🇮🇹🇺🇸
❤❤❤ Very precious. Footage caught special features of HK. Maybe a real pyramid in Ngong Ping. 👍
A few changes since this was filmed. One of my favourite cities.
我得，3歲！時光飛快😢

@ My bad, hope it doesn’t stop your enjoyment of the film though.
1963 was the year I took the government organized School Certificate Exam for high school students.
No MTR and no Cross Harbour Tunnel at that time.
1963 I am form 3
I was in Form 5 taking the School Certificate Exam. Time flies.
