| Publisher Description: What do "Nine dragons city" and "Mandarin's lake" have in common with "Wong Tai Sin", the name of a Taoist deity? They're all districts in Kowloon. This book is an exploration of Hong Kong's lesser-visited sister city - 15 years after its handover from Britain to China. Scores of colour photographs bring the peninsula to the reader in a salute to street culture and the ordinary and extraordinary people of Kowloon. |
