Check this out. The Walled City of Kowloon! (#china) Kowloon was a densely populated walled city that existed in an ungoverned part of Hong Kong between the 1890s and the 1990s. Originally built as a Chinese military fort, people began inhabiting the walled city when parts of Hong Kong were leased to Britain. Neither the Hong Kong nor the British government took responsibility for governing Kowloon Walled City. In effect, the city was an enclave ruled by anarchy, that is to say, without government, for nearly 100 years. #kowloon #hongkong #unique #city
