International Financial Center and Four Seasons Hotel, Hong Kong
Hong Kong's people are caring and family-oriented, with a sense of charity and civility that extends even to foreigners. Yet Hong Kong citizens, like Americans, continue to build castles in the air, testaments to ambition, the accumulation of wealth, and glamour.
While I was in Hong Kong, I felt very mortal and, in this incredibly populous city, very small and insignificant. I think that was a good lesson.
