Soy sauce (top) and fermented bean curd (bottom) are displayed inside the 130-year-old Wing Woo grocery, a short hop from the gleaming financial towers at Hong Kong's financial Central district September 7, 2007. The shop stands to be demolished in a controversial HK$487 million redevelopment that rip the heart out of one of Hong Kong's oldest neighbourhoods. With Hong Kong marking its tenth anniversary since returning from British to Chinese rule, observers say the city's growing civil activism -- of which heritage preservation has become a part -- is tied to a greater sense of belonging and a desire to preserve the city's cultural roots and unique identity.
