The sidewalk in Hong Kong is not just a nightmare; it is a nightmare on different levels. Nightmares that are closely interlinked. A kind of “Inception” turned sidewalk, if you like.
Now, when talking about the sidewalk, we’re talking about any pathway in Hong Kong, really. That is, any place where people can walk (including supermarkets, shopping malls, etc.).
You would think that the main reason walking in Hong Kong is such a nightmare derives from the fact Hong Kong is an overcrowded city. If overpopulation certainly plays a role in this nightmare, it is not the main reason that makes walking in Hong Kong such an ordeal.
