Tè, oppio, fiori di Bauhinia, Barbie, kung fu e Legoland – Tea, opium, Bauhinia flowers, Barbie, kung fu and Legoland
Ci sono pochissime città alle quali è difficile abituarsi ed Hong Kong è una di queste.
Nonostante le mie numerose visite, mi ritrovo sempre con lo sguardo al cielo, tra architetture spettacolari e palazzi fatiscenti ma con una personalità ben definita.
Il passato coloniale è ancora lì a testimoniare il fascino irresistibile del Porto Profumato.
Un crocevia di miti e leggende, tra tè, oppio, fiori di Bauhinia, Barbie, kung fu e Legoland.

There are very few cities to which it’s difficult to get used and Hong Kong is one of them.
Despite my many visits, I find myself always with an eye to the sky, between spectacular architecture and decadent buildings but with a well-defined personality.
The colonial past is still there to witness the irresistible charm of the Fragrant Harbour.
A crossroads of myths and legends, between tea, opium, Bauhinia flowers, Barbie, kung fu and Legoland.
Bellissima sembra davvero di essere in un cartone animato.
Luce in citta’! Finestra per finestra,vicolo dopo vicolo. Fatiscenza che calamita a se.
Ancora una volta, con una sintesi magistrale, hai racchiuso una città in un’immagine e in una manciata di parole.
Molto poetica l’espressione porto profumato.
Hong Kong, cara Stefy, significa proprio Porto Profumato.
Grazie Miki…troppo buona!

Several years ago I built a website for a fdrenis home cleaning business. She is also a Shaklee distributor. She supplied me with an image bearing a Shaklee logo that I assumed was promotional material provided by Shaklee. Now as the web developer I have received a notice from the legal department at Getty Images that I’m in copyright violation and they want almost $900 and immediate removal of the image. This falls under the category of no good deed goes unpunished . I did not charge my friend for building the site it was something I did as a favor. I have removed the image from her website. But, am I really responsible for payment to Getty images for these charges?
