Heung Shing

Heung Shing (Chinese: 香城) is a fictional city appearing in examinations (such as Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination, Hong Kong Advanced Level Examination and Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination) of Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority. That city is somehow portraiting Hong Kong. However, it is unclear that whether there is any relation between each year's exam paper.
