From now to April 13, visit Airside in Kai Tak for an immersive experience that will transport you back in time to a lawless, gritty corner of our city in the 80s. Based on the movie Twilight of the Warriors, a neo-noir martial arts action film set in the dim, dangerous precinct of the old Kowloon Walled City, the exhibition has painstakingly recreated sets from the movie to give a taste of what life would have been like back then. From a bing sutt coffee and tea shop and a barbershop to a comic stall, dental clinic, tailor shop, and more, all the designs and props, down to the price tags on items, were modelled on historical pieces from Hong Kong in the 80s to fully immerse visitors in the bygone era of the Kowloon Walled City. The dim alleys and indoor locations have been integrated with sound effects and actors’ dialogues, so if you enjoyed Twilight of the Warriors, then this exhibition will be a real treat.
Spot Easter eggs hidden throughout the exhibition such as miniature models of the movie characters, and don’t miss the dining and retail stalls, where you can buy iconic dishes from Hong Kong food stalls served in nostalgic takeaway containers.
