Random fact: To leave a party without telling anyone is called in English, a “French Exit”. In French, it’s called a “partir à l’anglaise”, to leave like the English.
Ocean Park's attendance has been on the decline, it was 5.7 million in 2019. The same number as HK Disneyland that same year. HK Disneyland has improved so much since it opened and honestly they should focus more on that park instead of Ocean Park
I love the story of the Kowloon Walled City. It even inspired a story or two out of me. On an unrelated note, why was the music for this episode so ominous? It sounded really creepy. Please do 101 Facts about: 1. Bees 2. Sailor Moon 3. Ballet 4. Lucifer (TV series) 5. The Die Hard films
The legend of Kowloon is something I was always fascinated with. Great for learning about Chinese history. Hong Kong is actually a great city for people in business. Just saying.
Two facts about Hong Kong: 1) Hong Kong has more skyscrapers than any other city. 2) Hong Kong's Chep Lap Kok is, like lot of Hong Kong is built on reclaimed land-manmade islands
Absolutely in love with Hong Kong, 7 years here, and not planning to leave, regardless of what media is presenting, there is still so much magic going on here...
@@Mach5Johnny you don't know me, and you can't make assumptions why I'm saying what I'm saying. Keep yourself busy or if you don't like it here maybe you should leave, at least expats have that privilege.
Hong Kong also changed its airport in 1998. It was previously Kai Tak Airport, one of the most dangerous airports in the world. The airport then relocated to Lantau Island.
Interesting that map of the Qin Dynasty at 4:51. It's the first time I see it. In the 1980's I drew a map (actually a few variations of the same one) of the minimum parts of China that should be the Republic of China (currently in Taiwan). It is almost exactly the same as that map. Amazing.
I have been to Hong Kong yeah, in 1996. Ocean Park is good. Hong Kong is considered to be the best place in the world for the blending of east and west.
You can not say Hong and forget to Kong King Kong: no no no!!! Its "You can not say King and forget to...???" Random person: Martin Luther King Kong:🤦🏼♂️just shoot me off a building
The map in fact one was wrong. Hong Kong doesn't use the airport on the map which says "Hong Kong International", or Kai Tak. We now only use the Chek Lap Kok International.
I haven't watched 101 Facts, with Sam, for quite a while. I see no mention of Jennifer Lawrence, like jetting of to Hong Kong with her. The novelty must have faded out now, with her being married.
- Hong Kong is amazing and beautiful. - The subway is excellent. - That whole “maintain their rights and lifestyle” thing didn’t go so well for them, did it? It was a remnant of British colonial arrogance that they negotiated Hong Kong’s status _vis a vis_ China, instead of letting Hongkongers decide for themselves via referendum or plebiscite. Be ashamed of yourself Britain; you consigned them to what’s happening now. - Carrie Lam is the Benedict Arnold or Vikud Quisling of Hong Kong. - Liberate Hong Kong; the revolution of our times. 🇭🇰
The last British governor of Hong Kong Mr. Patten said that he wanted there to be a referendum, but there would be no way to enforce whatever decision HK made, they can't un-sign a treaty. Do you honestly think Britain WANTED this, you moron? Because I assure you, we didn't, and we don't. If we had it our way HK could have chosen their status. But we couldn't have it our way. You seem to have very conveniently forgotten that China exists, and wouldn't have just rolled over and let us do what we wanted.
JGSHEW - As we’re learning, China isn’t unbeatable. Also, the government that negotiated the 99-year lease didn’t exist in 1997, and the British could’ve said so.
@@GamerFromJump That's not how international treaties work. And China probably isn't unbeatable to a country like the US, but probably is to a country like the UK.
Free Hong Kong, Revolution of our times!!!
