Dark Side Of Hong Kong Walking Tour

Think you know Hong Kong? Think again. Behind the glittering facade and ostentatious displays of wealth – all gleaming skyscrapers, cavernous designer malls and spaceship-sized super-yachts – almost 25% of the population lives in poverty. This fascinating two-hour tour reveals the chasm between rich and poor in this, one of the planet’s richest economies, leading you on a journey that takes in traditional local markets and exposes the living conditions in some of the city’s poorest communities. Your expert guide will explain Hong Kong’s capitalist system, show how families are crammed into tiny 100-square-foot apartments, and take you on a stroll through the old-school Fish Market, Flower Market and Bird Market in Mong Kok. Tours are conducted mainly in English but guides can also converse in Cantonese and Mandarin.
