They created an interactive tool that lets you see what some of Hong Kong's most popular sites looked like as far back as 100 years ago, compared to how they appear today. You can explore the Western Market as it was in 1947, ride through the bustling Kennedy Town in 1957, and see what Nathan Road looked like in 1920.To see the photos, click "Explore" on the graphic below.
