Hong Kong is very British, though. Most of the other colonized parts are not (Exceptions maybe Canada, NZ and Australia). But traveling from Hong Kong to Shenzhen, you can feel that there is a significant culture gap.
Also Hong Kong appears to have lots of British banking connections like HSBC and Standard Chartered.
- mytailorisrich 6y agoHongkong looks somewhat British in some aspects but not many. I think the main culture gap is that HK has kept a traditional Chinese culture that was swept away on the mainland. > like HSBC The name which means the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Company. A bank founded in China (Hongkong) by the British.
- refurb 6y agoI think Hong Kong looks very British! At least in comparison to the other Asian nations that don't have a British Colonial history.
- csomar 6y agoSure it was founded in HongKong but at that time it's purpose was to facilitate trade and banking between the UK and mainland China. My point is that they still have lots of these relations up to this day.
