Description
Crowds of Hong Kongers queued in sweltering heat on Monday to pay tribute to Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, some expressing nostalgia for the city's colonial past at a time when China is seeking to purge dissent.
A line of people hundreds of metres long snaked through the business district to the British consulate where a condolence book had been opened for residents to sign.
"Hong Kong was a British colony certainly and she was the monarch. We have a very distant relationship, yet very familiar," said Hong Konger Cecile, who came to pay tribute to Queen Elizabeth. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
