Hong Kong is a mixture of many cultures. In the mid-19th century, the county was colonized by the
British Empire -- turning this calm, laidback fishing village into a modern,
vivacious kind of city. Amidst its fast-paced lifestyle lies a city full
of contrast, life, and abundant culture. Its rich colonial past and the British culture and values occupy its heart and soul.
