Kowloon in Pictures

It's hard to adequately capture a place with just a few photos; furthermore, I barely scratched the surface of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island during my brief stay. However, pictures can often convey much more than mere prose, so without further delay, here are more images to give you a glimpse into what I saw over the weekend; this batch was taken in Kowloon.

 The night before Day One of the New Year's festivities was bustling with activity -people scurrying to buy flowers, gifts and food.

The infamous Chung King Mansions -a massive grouping of sketchy hostels and proprietors; so glad I didn't stay here.

Knock-offs or gently used originals? I'll never know...

 Can you spot the double-deckers in action?
