Well, Hong Kong is all I thought it would be and more. I've spent the last few days exploring Mong Kok and Hong Kong Island. This city is beyond belief! It is a teeming metropolis, illuminated by a thousand neon lights. The city feels like a heart, the centre of all life. Seven million residents all flowing through its myriad of veins, marching to its constant beat. I have let that throng carry me, mesmerized by its fascinating sights.
First, a couple of videos to give you a brief sense of how Hong Kong feels:
Just one of Hong Kong's endless neon drenched streets.
Hong Kong Island by night.
The same view, but now by day.
The view of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon from Victoria Peak.
A little bit of history. The place in Hong Kong where the British first claimed the island for Queen Victoria in 1841.
Oh, and here is a picture of my shower partner every morning.
