Notorious for its questionable and shady past, Chungking Mansions is also most known for being the background to the Wong Kar-wai classic, Chungking Express (1994).

Where a notorious slum once stood now exists a serene park \u2013 Kowloon Walled City Park. Originally built as a 15th-century maritime defence fortress, the Walled City later devolved into an enclave of crime. After its demolition in the 1990s, the site underwent a dramatic transformation. Traditional Jiangnan-style gardens with ponds, pavilions, and lush greenery now occupy the area. Visitors can stroll along winding walkways past remnants of the old Walled City like cannons and walls.<\/p>\n
