A journey in the future, I would define the encounter with Hong Kong's Chinese metropolis, one of the world's largest ports, a first-class commercial and financial center that breathes about 6 million people a day. Why a journey in the future ?!
First of all architecture makes you feel it. Vertical that changes perspective. You raise your eyes and put your head far back so you can see the sky through the sky scattered clouds at unpredictable angles, very far from the idea of a high block from us.
This city is full of young people. Older people are virtually not visible. They are lost in the youthful sea that fills the streets, but in the human stream no one pushes you in or unsettling their impatience. From what is this behavior born? Maybe from the mix of British and Chinese civilizations.
Hong Kong was concessioned for almost a century in Great Britain. The vibrant life of this city is composed of the Eastern and Western culture mixture. The business is scattered by Asian clouds, from Victoria Harbor. Avenue of Stars, a Hollywood of the East, dominates the natural-looking statue of Bruce Lee, star of Kung-fu action movies.
A stunning dash is in the Mong Kok district, the shopping area, described as one of the busiest places in the world. Serenity is set in your soul in the tranquility of a Buddhist temple in Nan Lian Garden, reminding you that all human struggle is wind blowing.
These are color spots in ancient China. Otherwise, Hong Kong is an avant-garde city and a trip there actually means a foray into the future.
