Urban Jungle

Hello My Dear Great Ones,

Hong Kong is the 8th most densely populated city in the world!  68000 people per sq. km.  8 million people in an area of 1100 sq km.  Alberta in comparison has a population density of 6 people per sq. km. 4 million people in an area of 661000 sq km.  

Despite this crazy population density stat, 40% of HK is natural parks!  Another 20% is made of natural/rural/agricultural land.  So how do you pack so many people in such a small area?  High rises.  Tons of them.  The third most of any city in the world.  Most people in Hk are packed into them. 

All these high rises creates an urban jungle.  Below are a few shots of what I mean. 















Have a great week!

Love adios and ping on!

Dirk
