Hong Kong (China) is one of the most high-rise cities in the world. Each work is feng shui master and architects carefully calculated.
Everything from the direction, shape of the building to the location of the entrance or interior decoration, is believed to affect the prosperity or life of the owner.
The art of arranging objects and architectural designs in harmony with nature is deeply ingrained in Hong Kong culture. Feng shui is considered an important factor to bring luck and success.
Therefore, feng shui teachers are often invited to buy or plan a new office. Even large architectural and construction works on this island follow the feng shui.
Many companies even have their own annual fund for feng shui viewing. Changes may be in small details such as director positions, to more expensive requirements such as demolition and rebuilding of a building.
When HSBC headquarters was built in the mid-1980s, the escalators moved from aligned position with the entrance to the side to prevent bad air from the Victoria port running into the office.
The Bank of China does not follow the principles of feng shui and is considered unlucky to almost no one hired.
Even more sharp buildings have been criticized for damaging the surrounding environment. The owner of the Lippo Center is located opposite the sharp corner of the bankrupt tower.
To prevent the same thing from happening, HSBC placed two cannons on the roof.
They were directed to the Bank of China to protect HSBC from the bad news.
The great development of Hong Kong in recent years is also attributed to good feng shui. This city has mountains behind it and water ahead - a good topography in feng shui principles.
According to legend, the mountains are the dwelling place of the dragon - carrying a positive and powerful energy. This energy is transmitted through Hong Kong as they from the mountains to the sea to drink water and bathe.
That is why many buildings along the water's edge have holes in the middle. These holes provide uninterrupted travel for the dragons, which helps keep energy flowing throughout the city.
