It's always fascinated me how you could fit so many people in such a small place with no architectural planning and still have things work "fine."

A truly magical city.

“What fascinates about the Walled City is that, for all its horrible shortcomings, its builders and residents succeeded in creating what modern architects, with all their resources of money and expertise, have failed to: the city as ‘organic megastructure’, not set rigidly for a lifetime but continually responsive to the changing requirements of its user, fulfilling every need from water supply to religion, yet providing also the warmth and intimacy of a single huge household.” – Leung Ping Kwan, City of Darkness

An old breakcore album about Kowloon. Dying in Kowloon is really good imo.

Anata no Warehouse Kawasaki was a Kowloon-themed arcade that closed recently. Here's a pic I took when I visited last year.

Interesting that so much of the interest in Kowloon seems to come from Japan. At least half the documentaries, infographics, etc. that I've come across have been Japanese.
