I remember traveling to Hong Kong prior to the pandemic, it was crowded and many businesses available. Now, it looks so deserted yet much cleaner. Thank you for posting this video.
21:52 To the left was once a 'haunted mansion' before present day Yu Wah Department Store. The old house was taken down in 1977. It was built in the mid 1920's by a oil merchant name Wong Tong.Because of the spooky looking of that house most people believe it was haunted starting in around the 1950's.
@@VirtualToursTV I lived in the neighbourhood with my parents in the 1960's. That old mansion was really spooky. Rumour from those days was about a young woman who hung herself there and her spirit kept circulating from inside !
Have been to Hong Kong a total of 17 times over the years. I simply loved it, would not go again, and can't believe how uncrowded it is, would have been impossible to walk in a straight line up Nathan Rd, absolutely packed, looking at this video in Nathan Rd virtually can't see any foreign visitors, so sad😢 have walked the full length of Nathan Rd and just about every where else, watched the new airport being built, flew into it the year it started flying out the year before to old Kai Tak stopped, great memories 😢
Glad that you loved old Hong Kong! It must have been cool to look at planes flying above Kowloon City before landing at Kai Tak. This walking tour was recorded during the pandemic, when Hong Kong closed its international borders. Nathan Road is now crowded once again 😂
Wow I didn’t know that! I looked up on the internet and found that King Wah Centre was once King Wah Restaurant, which should be the one you mentioned.
@@VirtualToursTV The green triangles are very eye catching. Remember in the old days in Kindergarten during the mid 1960's where I travelled that route by bus with my mother.
I really wish you would have clearly photographed the names of the cross streets as you were walking north along Nathan Road. Without that, it was really difficult to identify the location that you were walking. I think that you eventually turned east along Argyle street, then headed south, then west along Soy street back towards Nathan Road. I think. The video would have been much more enjoyable if you had photographed some orientation information.
Yes, Hong Kong is family-friendly! There are two theme parks within the city where you can spend a great time with kids. Hong Kong is also a safe city, and my only tip is to avoid walking along narrow back alleys at night to ensure kids' safety. Most of us understand English, and for drivers, they understand destination requests in basic English. In case the driver really doesn't understand, perhaps it's a good idea to search for the Chinese name on the Internet and show it to him.
@@VirtualToursTV : Exactly, why is that there ?!!?! Chi sin..... Who put the damn thing there !!!! This is what happens when people kowtow to this pseudo Imperialism.... Chi sin. This is rubbish and dangerous.

I remember seeing that in old photos of Hong Kong. It was a pity that I could not witness it, as a person born after its demolition.

I thought his name was Wong Cheuk-Hing? Hong Kong surely had lots of haunted places, surprisingly more than what I’ve guessed.
@@heijimikata7181 I think this is his formal name from the family.
very beautiful, impressive high quality videos... myself still had outdated from 1975 Hong KOng C.I , residency card ... miami, florida ...

42:03. I my memory is correct , there was a welknown restaurant called King Wah to the right in the old days of the 1960's and 70's.
Wow I didn’t know that! I looked up on the internet and found that King Wah Centre was once King Wah Restaurant, which should be the one you mentioned.

23:42. I think this green triangle building was completed in 1961.
Thanks for your information! That’s one of my favourite buildings along Nathan road.

Quite a few ignore the red “Don’t Walk” light.😮
This reminds me of a meme pic about "what traffic light means for Hong Kong" 😂 Search that on Google and you'll see what I mean haha
That was common when so many people waiting to cross couldn't wait for the green all part of Hong Kong
Excuse me, what camera did you use to take the picture?
It was DJI Pocket 2.
@@VirtualToursTV thanks
Is it safe to travel HongKong with family & kids, people understand English specially taxi drivers ?
Yes, Hong Kong is family-friendly! There are two theme parks within the city where you can spend a great time with kids. Hong Kong is also a safe city, and my only tip is to avoid walking along narrow back alleys at night to ensure kids' safety.

0:24 Tragedy, tragedy
It is so odd to see an actual archway in Temple St.... and yes... even I don't get why there is such a lack of people. It seems to be so quiet now...
The arch makes Temple Street look like chinatown in other countries hahaha. Hope that more people will visit Hong Kong soon!
@@VirtualToursTV : Exactly, why is that there ?!!?! Chi sin..... Who put the damn thing there !!!! This is what happens when people kowtow to this pseudo Imperialism.... Chi sin. This is rubbish and dangerous.
It is what time ? Why Nathan road is so fewer cars in circulation ?
It was 2pm on Friday when the tour was filmed.
九龍半島有港鐵站嗎?
有啊
Very sad to see quite a number of business closing for good along the busy Nathan Road in recent years.
