Hong Kong

Hong Kong - hong kong, city china
Flag This WallpaperAdd to FavoritesEnlarge Wallpaper
Wallpaper Description:
Hong Kong consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, Stone Cutter's Island and the New Territories.

In 1841 Hong Kong Island - not much more than 'a barren island with few houses' - was ceded to the British. In 1856 the Chinese also cede Kowloon and Stonecutter's Island. In 1898 the New Territories are leased to the British for a 99-year period.
In 1997, at the end of the lease period negotiations between Britain and China resulted in the handover of Hong Kong back to China. Under the credo 'one country, two systems', Hong Kong is now a Special Administrative Region (S.A.R.) of China.

On the surface, Hong Kong hasn't changed much: it is still a dazzling commercial city where east meets west. The lack of space in Hong Kong has led to the largest concentration of tall buildings in the world, well ahead of New York City.
Hong Kong Island's skyline is truly amazing, especially at night. And with height restrictions now removed in Kowloon, Hong Kong is set to have two impressive skylines across Victoria Harbour.
