Hong Kong - The Asian Sensation
When we talk about the culture of Hong Kong, we see that it is the place which is often depicted as a place where eastern culture meets western culture. It is said so because of the Chinese base of the country while the effects of the British invasion had an effect in giving Hong Kong a mix of western culture too. We will find that the beliefs like feng shui are still practiced very seriously even though it does not exist in western culture. The food is also affected by both the cultures.
