Lei Ho Mo?
I was in Hong Kong in 1989 and 1991. I had to take a flight from here to China with my grampy. Hong Kong is a metropolitan place. It's spectacular, has great shopping at every street. I got to see the residential areas as well and the buildings are really well maintained. The exterior of the blocks were dirty and had patches of dark moss / algae growing on it. Everything was crowded together and rather cluttered. Most people wouldn't speak English to you, rather, prefer to speak Cantonese, which i had no command of it at all. Some folks were snobbish and all. It was not a very nice experience. The harbor was quite a sight. I cannot comment on the red light district since i was too young to wander around on my own. But i do remember names of places such as Kowloon and Tsim Tsa Tsui (or however you spell it). I've been to Hong Kong Island too. And that Sung Dynasty thingy. Went to see the water world too. Got myself a bag but haven't seen it in a few years. I must have thrown it away a few years down the road. I was geeky and nerdy looking when i was in Hong Kong both years. I will show you the pictures when i am gutsy enough.
