Well done for getting an interview with Gordon. He's a really nice guy, interesting and engaged. His book is still referenced all over the place despite being over a decade old because it has such good primary research.
I got stuck here for nearly three weeks while waiting to renew my passport in 2008. Met hundreds of people from all over the world. Made many friends. Great memories, fantastic place in a great city! ☺
Stayed here for 4 days without knowing anything. I just searched whats the cheapest accommodation at TST. Now, after watching and knowing the history of the building, it somewhat made me happy that Ive experienced living on it.
Loved the video. Thank you. I used to visit CM in the 80s when there were many Indian ‘messes’ still operating. In those days you might be served a curry in a small table in a room that was a bedroom later in the night. We went back more recently and while it retained some of its unique features, all the messes we found had turned in to more traditional Indian restaurants. Still love the place and hope they don’t ever sweep it away like they did the walled city.
Indian tenants in Chungking are very friendly and approachable. Thanks to the Indian guy, who help us find our room. (feb 18-20,2018). Thanks for this nice video.
So you’re telling me there’s still a smaller, heavily watered down version of the iconic Kowloon Walled City in Hongkong? That’s awesome! I need to visit this before they declare this awkward masterpiece as to „ugly“ for the elite society as well and demolish it.

Great video. I stayed there for a few nights 3 years ago. I had no idea of the history till now, thank you.
Great video! You did a fantastic job editing and narrating. Keep up the good work!

I just love Chungking Mansion, I lived there for 1 month!
I stay in chungking mansion for 2 years i see many things 😊
I grew up in this area and Kowloon Park is just across the road. That was in the sixties 😅
Nice video
I've walked past this building but haven't been inside though 👍
Hope you also interview the people living and working there

Strange

Is this the same mansion that they filmed the 2022 horror drama show jinxiao mansion 金宵大廈2
well, i am staying a night as of this writing. I am in floor 8. it cost me 300 hkd
Oh didn't know it was dangerous before!!!!
In Mandarin, it is pronounced as Chung-Ching, rather than Chung-king
It literally means "central capital."
A interesting place to visit, maybe not to spend the night.....
