Hong Kong Bus Review
2011

 
This book was published in January 2012. It comes in hardback and consists of 176 colour pages, almost all of which have colour photographs of varying sizes. All articles are written in Chinese although each article heading has an english translation and a brief english summary. A selection of photographs of various pages of the book are included below.

The third in the 'Hong Kong Bus Review' series is, in my opinion, the best yet! Whilst retaining a similar layout to the previous editions, the choice of page and text colours for this edition makes it so much clearer than last years. It contains some superb photographs and covers all the main topics of the year. An excellent addition to the Hong Kong bus library!
