A Tour Of Hong Kong’s Triad Gangster District (#141)

Hong Kong. A city that most know for international finance, movies, and good food. Perhaps lesser known is Hong Kong’s association with the Triads, one of the world’s most infamous criminal organizations. Possessing one of the biggest ports in Asia, as well as a border with mainland China, Hong Kong has always been an ideal smuggling location. On this day I would go exploring in Yuen Long, a district that became famous for Triads after some recent events. I would be joined by a threatening looking local who would take me to explore the neighborhood, finding cultural oddities such as deer viagra and criminal mahjong parlors along the way. Later, I’d also check out the lower class neighborhoods of Kowloon, and learn the spot to Fook Long. ------- My Instagram: tommyelforastero My Patreon: #sabbatical #hongkong #asia
