"Why are there scores of Nepali in Hong Kong?" "Are they foreigners?" No! They are indeed Hong Kong permanent residents! What's more, they are the "Offspring of Gurhka" whose ancestors have once served as troops to protect Hong Kong during the colonial period under the British rule. Gurhka soilders were first gathered in Hong Kong in 1948 and many of whom have rooted in Hong Kong ever since. Nowadays, the second and third generation communities are concentrated in Yuen Long and Jordan. Want to explore more about their community?

We have done a home visit with a local Nepalese family and site investigation of their community, aiming to offer you a unique experience of the Nepali community on their history, education and acquisition of language as well as their interaction with the local community. You can also figure out the answer on how they form such a strongly-bonded community in Hong Kong and preserve their own language -- Nepali.  Are you ready to explore?

Join us to explore more about the "Offsprings of Ghurka"!
