The last rickshaws of Hong Kong where over 1000 used to exist, stopped being used for transport or normal travel long before the 1980s, having morphed into a tourist treat, operated by just a handful of remaining licenced operators from a rank next to the now demolished Star Ferry and on the Peak. This scene sees old Hong Kong passing the all new HSBC Norman Foster building providing a thoroughly modern Hong Kong backdrop to a sight that was soon to disappear totally.

What became of the rickshaws or all of their licenced operators is unclear, perhaps they will return one day however until that time this unique aspect of Hong Kong is just a fond memory.
