We will explain what is going on inside the masses of high-rise buildings surrounding the markets. Prostitution, illegal gambling, and subdivided living are all rife. This is your insight into the 'dark side' of Hong Kong.

Chung King Mansion
36-44 Nathan Road,Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, , Hong Kong, ChinaFrom the gritty and frantic streets of Mong Kok, we make our way to the more glamorous district of Tsim Sha Tsui on the peninsula of Kowloon.
Chung King Mansions launched as a beacon of prosperity in the jet-set era of Hong Kong. The building’s fame slid into notoriety soon after, and it has lived for 60 years in the spotlight. Many Hong Kong people avoid it, given its reputed sleazy underbelly. A social scientist wrote a book about the building after conducting a 3-year study on it and the thousands of people that pass through it every day. We will talk about the building and its fascinating story.
