Description
Kowloon Walled City (九龍寨城), a Chinese enclave in colonial Hong Kong and densely populated slum, continues to fascinate people, even as 30 years have passed since its demolition. This session will explore various historical documents about the Walled City found in British Colonial Office papers, contemporary newspapers, and other sources from online Gale Primary Sources available to CUHK users. Along the way, users can learn how to search and navigate historical documents on their own.
