Inhabiting a block the size of
the Tokyo Dome, Kowloon Walled City resembed a living, breathing
creature, born from its inhabitants over its long lifespan. But
the walled city was more than a physical conglomeration of buildings
and people, it was an inadvertent symbol of the long struggle
between China and Hong Kong, ruled by neither. It was an "in-between
zone" whose remarkable existence today can best be comprehended
through images, statistics and interviews. These pages give a
brief overview of Kowloon Walled City (KWC) in historical, personal,
architectural and political terms. |
