Some Cityscapey Bits from Hong Kong

From Victoria Peak, Hong Kong

You wouldn't know it from these pictures, but Hong Kong isn't really that big of a place.  I think it's total population is something like seven million or so, which compares roughly to Chicago, and is miniscule compared to cities of comparable import in the rest of China.  It looks that much bigger because everything is all scrunched up into a much smaller space.  To me, it seems like someone took a city like Chicago, then pushed most the people into the middle, leaving the outside for green space and mountains.  Not a bad way to have a city, that...
