Hong Kong: The Golden City by Tran Minh Dung

Table of content

When I was a child, I especially loved the Hong Kong movies from TVB and many superstars ( Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Andy Lau .etc.) They became a part of my memories. It also made me wish to visit Hong Kong city at least one time in my life. Through the new perspective of infrared photography, I want to tell you the story of another Hong Kong which is, in my mind, a golden city: “Glorious but still peaceful”

Hong Kong Infrared Photography FAQs

Hong Kong: The Golden City is an infrared travel photo essay by Tran Minh Dung. The article frames Hong Kong as a city connected to the author’s childhood memories of TVB movies and stars such as Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Andy Lau.

Tran Minh Dung says infrared photography gave him a new perspective on Hong Kong and helped him tell the story of “another Hong Kong” that he imagines as a golden city: “glorious but still peaceful.”

The essay includes Victoria Peak, the train to The Peak, residential areas near The Peak, Hong Kong Island streets, Tsim Sha Tsui, Choi Hung apartment building, Victoria Harbor, a Bruce Lee statue, and Hong Kong Airport.

The post shows a sanitation worker sweeping leaves, taxis and public transport, trees planted to improve air quality, residential walkways, schoolchildren playing basketball, and tourist activity around Victoria Harbor. These details balance famous landmarks with everyday city rhythm.

Instead of only showing landmarks, the essay connects personal memory, cinema influence, infrared color, transportation, clean streets, trees, neighborhoods, and harbor views. That makes Hong Kong feel both iconic and peaceful rather than only busy or crowded.
