Name: Kowloon Walled City Location: China Then: Hundreds of years ago, it was a Chinese fort and only soldiers lived there. Then in the early 20th century, the soldiers left and squatters moved in. By 1980, the 0.03 km² city had 500 buildings inside its walls and 33,000 residents lived there. The city was crowded, dirty and full of rubbish. People called it 'the city of darkness' because the buildings were so high, there was no sunlight in the narrow streets below. Why did people go there? There were no laws and no police in the city, so it was popular with criminals and people with illegal businesses. The Chinese government didn't do anything about the city because it was dangerous and difficult to control. Why did people leave? In 1993, the government finally moved people out of the city and destroyed it. Now: One building and the city gate are left. You can see them in Kowloon Walled City Park.
