Honestly, the real Wan Chai district of Hong Kong Island has very little in common with its digital counterpart. Wan Chai is a very modern area, its urban picture is mainly painted with skyscrapers, towers, hotels and commercial buildings. It also features a lot of bars, pubs, clubs and strip clubs. Wan Chai is probably the most british influenced district of Hong Kong.
Uhhh … ahhh … good!
