Across Hong Kong, where almost half the population lives in government-provided housing, public housing complexes have become wildly popular Instagram destinations. Locals and tourists flock to estates around the city, craning their necks to get that perfect shot. It’s easy to see why places like Choi Hung Estate, which means “rainbow” in Cantonese, are so Instagram friendly. Other estates make for equally pleasing photographs: One is made up of bright blue structures with mesmerizing concentric circles, another of cylindrical buildings with interiors that resemble giant Slinkys. “It’s visual art. It attracts people’s attention,” said William Leung, 38, who recently published a photo book about Hong Kong’s estates. What many of the tourists toting selfie sticks don’t realize is that the estates are miracles of public housing, creating affordable homes for millions of people in one of the world’s most expensive cities. “I think it’s pretty good, to make this place a tourist spot,” said Nelson Yuen, 25, a lifelong resident of Choi Hung who set up a photo stand there, selling Polaroid shots for 40 Hong Kong dollars, or about $5, each. “It’s better than not having people here.” @lamyikfei photographed a woman drying food in the sun at Choi Hung Estate.
