in hong kong - especially on hong kong island where land is very very expensive - a lot of skyscrapers have been built, and many of them are stunning pieces of modern architecture ... among the most striking buildings are the hongkong-shanghai bank (by foster, 55 storeys) the centre building (by xyz, 73 storeys), the china bank (by pei, 70 storeys) and the lippo centre (by rudolph, 40 storeys) ... in kowloon, the cultural and science complex contains remarkable architecture as well ... the best view over the skyscrapers is from hong kong's famous 'peak', and the new peak centre is quite an impressive building itself!
