HMS ' Belfast ' was indeed in HK during the 50's as shown in another photo

The left front destroyer is possibly the ' Concord ' which was there many times during the 50's

Interesting photograph, I believe I can see a Bluey or a Glen alongside Holt's wharf. Vastly different from today's Hong Kong.
