Looks like I have a double dessert for my lunch break today. A slice of apple pie and a tasty B1M video...

I have been to many cities around the world, NY, Tokyo, Singapore, Shanghai, LA, Miami, Chicago, London and I can say that Hong Kong is by far the most fascinating one I have ever seen. The combination of skyscrapers with the mountains full of jungle and the sea is something unbelievable to see.

That day to night time-lapse at the end was beautiful

[newtonferrers]

The fact that you can go from HK and nearly reach half the worlds population within a 5-hour flight is incredible ....my mouth literally hit the floor that is absolute insanity.

I visited Hong Kong back in May 2018. Made some great memories and met a lot of interesting people in that city. I hope to go back one day. The public transport is fantastic too!

[rahhuuuu]

I went to Hong Kong few years ago and I was amazed by the quality of the infrastructures, specially the airport which is literally so impressive to see it from a plane

[NonstopDan]

This was so fascinating to watch as an aviation geek! Excellent job and fantastic animations👌 I can't wait to see what this expansion leads to service-wise!

I did my undergrad in civil engineering and one of our professors Malcolm Jarros was one of the engineers. I used to love the stories he used to tell us about the airport.

[jefflagundino]

I liked their airport when I visited 7 years ago. Now that their airport is getting an upgrade, I wanna visit the city again

Nice video as always but here is my problem I have been making losses trying to make profit tradilng. I thought tradng demo account is just like tradng the real market... can anyone help me out or at least advise me on what to do?

[weebpatrol]

As a Hong Konger seeing the project just being a pile of dirt so far has really pulled the expectations down along with a small feel of a waste of money but I hope with the land reclamation part done, construction above ground could bring the excitement back again.

Also never knew our airport was this amazing 🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰

The last time I came this early I got a hug.

Flying into HKG Airport is amazing. It really is quite impressive to walk through the terminal and think about how it is completely built on a manmade island.

This makes me feel a little old. I remember the "New" airport opening in 1998, and Kai Tak before it, with the dangerous approach that pilots dreaded! Also remember the handover in 1997. So much change, and I'm only 35. Incredible project and city, which is a global hub.

[ivanblakely]

Looks like a very impressive project.
HKG was one of my favourite places, starting from 1967, and many visits since.
Maybe a transit is a possibility, but I doubt I will ever stay there again. Good luck Hong Kongers.

[Oarfish]

Im in an area which is called Tuen Mun, across from the airport. I see the barges daily moving up and the water ways carrying materials. The size is phenomenal

I personally hope HK can fix housing problem more than a bigger airport tbh

[Travelife]

living here since 2005. i love this city every day more and more. i feel so blessed to live here. Love u Hong Kong from the bottom of my heart
