Kowloon Walled City



These are the section of the buildings right before it was demolished. It comes from this book

I also came across this thread on a site that I found extremely useful. Images, facts, newspaper articles, videos--it's all in there. Unfortunately some (if not most) of the images are down, but the good news is that the thread is still on-going.

  1. These are incredible images of the section. Have you been able to find larger images to upload?Definitely a great find.

    Also, it might be a good idea to join this forum and post questions for material...and see what response you get...
