The first time I was in HK was when I was 10. I didn't remember much but always had the desire to go back. When I finally did 17 years later, it was not what I had expected... Except for the CBD area, everywhere else was old, crowded, dirty. But that's part of Hong Kong, it's part of who she is. Take away the old buildings & the people, it wouldn't be HK. I'll probably be back someday again.
