^Hong Kong is home to a lot of very run down looking buildings and surprisingly they - despite age and state - are over-packed with people paying insane rents to live there..

With so little land to build on it's all about location and while the practice is not legal as such many workers like in small cages or tiny rooms ( almost capsule hotel like ) mini apartments inside regular apartments..

Bad living conditions ( and inequality ) aside I do personally like the look of Hong Kong, including the old run down buildings - it's such a fascinating place that in one way shows both the future as well as a mindset of the path when it comes to urbanity..


Dubai - UAE


Hong Kong - China


Prague - Czech republic


New York City - New York - USA
