Tour the world: Hong Kong.

Hong Kong, where to begin?

Located in the heart of Asia, at the crossroads between mega-economies China, Japan, Korea, Indonesia and India, lies a few tiny islands that makes up the special administrative region of Hong Kong. Tiny, but one of the most influential cities in the world.

Hong Kong, what's it like?

Think about any sci-fi movies you might've seen (that's the Star Wars trilogy for me) . In it, there will always be that one megapolis with soaring skyscrapers and flying cars (that's Coruscant for me). Now, hold that image in your mind and minus the flying cars, you can then get a glimpse of Hong Kong's cityscape. More or less.

Hong Kong has the most number of skyscrapers than any other city in the world. Enough said.

Hong Kong, who lives there?

A former British colony, Hong Kong is now a special administrative region of China. It has a very diverse population with many different cultures but the chinese are still the largest ethnic group.

Hong Kong, what's the buzz?

My first trip to Hong Kong was back in January 2011. It was spectacular, so much that I went back again in February 2012. A few travelers I met said that 4-5 days was just about enough to cover HK and I shouldn't spend too long there. That's odd because 2 weeks was nowhere enough for me!

When I think of HK, I think of all the amazing food and urban culture the city has to offer. Truly, HK is a photographer's paradise if you are a night-skyline enthusiastic. Here's some pictures I took, to summarize what I thought of HK;
