Description: Kowloon City Hong Kong Japanese Great illustrated Book Description Kowloon Castle is a group of high-rise buildings made of reinforced concrete that was built on the site of a fort and has grown in an unusually dense manner over the past 40 years. The dense world of Kowloon Castle, which has now been dismantled and has disappeared, is restored with ultra-detailed cross-sectional drawings and photographs, where ``anything is possible'' and embraces both the sacred and the profane. Hong Kong's Kowloon City, known as the "Demon Cave of the Orient," was demolished during the handover from Britain to China, but at its peak, 50,000 people lived in the maze-like buildings. He is said to have lived there. This is the first large-scale picture book that recreates the ultra-high-density space in a large cross-section panorama based on materials from a group of architects who investigated it before it was demolished, revealing the entire picture.
