  • My Grandmother and I Walked Along Kweilin Street in Kowloon, Near the Sham Shui Po Rail Station, Where the Open-Air Market Was a Scene of Controlled Chaos
    My grandmother and I walked along Kweilin Street in Kowloon, near the Sham Shui Po rail station, where the open-air market was a scene of controlled chaos. Along a stretch of five or six blocks, vendors selling everything from wristwatches to dish towels to pirated DVDs began their operations on the sidewalk and bled into the street. Hun- dreds of people walked along the street as if it was a pedestrian promenade, which it isn’t — every now and again a car would patiently maneuver through. In Hong Kong, the market rules. The former British colony has thrived as an economic power- house under the “one country, two systems” policy developed under Deng Xiaoping. The result is one of the most fiercely competitive, densely populated, commerce-driven cities in the world. It’s also one of the most astonishingly expensive. On a recent visit, though, I was able to manage a fairly economical stay, all while enjoying the food, attractions and electric environment that the “fragrant harbor” (the literal translation of Hong Kong) has to offer. I focused my energy on the Kowloon peninsula, which is a bit grittier and less touristy than Hong Kong Island, just a few thousand feet away across Victoria Harbor. The biggest expense when staying in Kowloon will inevitably be housing. I confess that I cheat- ed, as I have family members who live about an hour out of the city center, and with whom I stayed for most of my trip. I did spend a night at the Silka West Kowloon Hotel, paying $157 for a double room.

  • Life and Death of Kowloon Walled City Antonín Brinda
    Life and Death of Kowloon Walled City Antonín Brinda The text you are about to read speaks about the island of Hong Kong which is by itself an exceptional place with a very specific history. There is (or maybe better to say was) nevertheless an arguably even more interesting island located within the territory of Hong Kong: Chinese enclave called Kowloon Walled City (KWC). What surrounded this 'island' was not water but „larger territory whose inhabitants are culturally or ethnically distinct“ (Oxford Dictionary's definition of enclave). Though in this case, the situation is somewhat more complicated, as KWC – officially part of China – was at the time surrounded by another piece of land formerly also belonging to China – British Hong Kong. Therefore one might say that a part of China was surrounded by another part of China, but that would be a quite a simplification. Decades of British domination had a significant impact on Hong Kong as well as unexpected juridical implications strongly influenced the nature of KWC. It is then legitimate to talk about KWC and Hong Kong as two entities, quite distinct from both each other and Mainland China, the smaller one strangely inserted into the body of its bigger neighbor. Let us explore together this unique 'island' and its 'waters'. The paper aims to shortly introduce the history of an urbanistic phenomenon of Kowloon Walled City (KWC) which until 1993 had been located in the territory currently known as Hong Kong (Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China). In the four parts of the article, I will look upon (1) the establishment and development of Kowloon City (Sung Dynasty - 1847), (2) the birth of the Walled City within the Kowloon City area (1847-1945), (3) the post-Second World War period during which the City received its reputation and the nickname 'City of Darkness' (1945-1993), and (4) the concurrent afterlife following the City's demolition in 1993 (1993-now).

In response to the request from the Chairman and Hon Junius HO Kwan-yiu, the Administration hereby provide the following supplementary information to elaborate the heritage and historic value of remnants of Lung Tsun Stone Bridge (LTSB), and how the proposed item of LTSB preservation corridor can effectively preserve and interprete its heritage and historical values. The relevant supplementary information is as follows: History of LTSB 2. Built between 1873 and 1875, Lung Tsun Stone Bridge (LTSB) was was originally about 210 meters in length and 2.6 to 4 meters in width (Photo 1). In 1892, a wooden extension of 80 metres was added by the local charity organisation Lok Sin Tong (樂善堂) after fund raising (Photo 2). In 1910, the timber extension of LTSB was replaced by a concrete structure, which was later modified to become the Kowloon City Pier. Part of LTSB was buried by the Kai Tack Bund reclamation carried out by the Government between 1916 and 1924 at the west shore of Kowloon Bay for property development.
