                                            Did you know Hong Kong means "fragrant harbour" in Chinese? As for "Kowloon", in Cantonese it literally means "nine dragon". Folklore tells us that a young emperor noticed the areas's eight hills, and named the land "eight dragons". Later, a servant reminded the emperor he too is a dragon, which makes it nine.
