The Big Picture: Kowloon City Panoramic Cross-Section Illustration
商品詳細
Product Description
Known as the "Devil's Cave of the Orient," Kowloon Castle in Hong Kong was a densely populated and labyrinth-like proliferation of buildings. At its peak, it housed 50,000 people. This large picture book offers a comprehensive look at this unique urban phenomenon, featuring a large-section panorama that reveals the ultra-high-density space in detail. The book is based on materials from a group of architects who conducted an investigation before the demolition, providing an unprecedented visual and historical record of Kowloon Castle before it was demolished as part of Hong Kong's return to China from Britain.
