[[Southorn Playground]] on Johnston Road (the tram line) is a meeting place for the locals in Wan Chai, particularly the senior residents. During the prime years of the British colonial administration, [[coolie]] workers would convene at the playground in the morning to await employment opportunities. In the evening, the playground became an open-air pitch where people sold food, performed [[Magic (illusion)|magic]] and [[kung fu]].

Some of those trademark activities still exist through today: senior citizens socialise and play [[Xiangqi|Chinese chess]], young people at school play [[association football|football]] and [[basketball]], ad-hoc street basketball games that attract flocks of spectators and players. Occasionally, the entire playground is used for carnival fairs, three-player drill basketball contests and [[hip hop dance]] competitions.
