HONOURING THE DEAD
Due to a projected shortage of cremation sessions, Hong Kong has expanded the Wo Hop Shek Crematorium (WHSC) in Fanling, adding two coffin cremators, another service hall, and more essential facilities. Reflecting ponds and large tilted lawns make things easier for grieving families to meditate, and they have some privacy, greenery, and natural light.
