This video follows Ken Abroad's journey to the outskirts of Hong Kong, specifically to a village near the mainland China border. He starts his adventure by taking a bus from the city center, experiencing the public transportation system and noting the scenic change from the concrete jungle to green mountains.

Because it's a frontier closed area and requires a special permit to visit. It's not open to all tourists.
What was the most surprising thing Ken found?
Probably the fact that I couldn't get into that village, and that even on a small bus in a rural area, everyone was paying cashless!
