That's a WOW-picture.

I usually don't like most huge cities, but I like Hong Kong (Singapore and Kathmandu are other big cities I like). While walking around Hong Kong, we tried to find the shortest building we could find. It was 17 stories.

I believe the building foreground right actually changes color. It changes to shades of blue, green, yellow, red, purple, etc., fading top to bottom every few minutes.

One thing about Hong Kong that makes it unique is that it isn't built on flat ground, it's actually built on steep mountains rising straight out of the ocean. The photo above isn't taken from the top of a skyscraper or helicopter, it is taken from the slopes of Victoria Peak. The peak is 1811 feet high (the photo was probably taken from about 1500 feet?), which tells you something about the height of the buildings that you are looking at.
