Kowloon City is an area in Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is administratively part of Kowloon City District. Compared with the administrative Kowloon City District, the Kowloon City area is vaguely bounded south by Prince Edward Road West and Prince Edward Road East, north with Lo Fu Ngam, east with Kai Tak Nullah and west with Kowloon Tsai.
Kowloon City is an old district in Hong Kong; however, it has been transforming into a modern district with a lot of new shops and restaurants over the years. The district is well known for its wide range of cuisine. Other than the traditional Hong Kong-style restaurants that offer local dishes, there are numerous restaurants that offer Southeast Asian dishes like Thai, Vietnamese and Indonesian. Many Thai grocery stores can be found throughout this place, too. Due to the prevalence of Thai restaurants and stores as well as the population of Thai-speaking ethnic Chinese, Kowloon City is also known as "Hong Kong's Little Thailand". It is not only a food paradise for authentic main dishes of many cultures, but also a popular place for both traditional Hong Kong-style and western desserts. With a sizable population from the Chiushan area of Guangdong Province, Kowloon City is famous for Chiuchow-style braised dishes (滷水).
Kowloon City Post Office was originally opened 1929.01.02, closing in December 1941 with the Japanese invasion. It reopened 1959.12.01 at its present location. Kowloon City Post Office is currently (Sept.2019) located at: G/F, 28 Lung Kong Road, Kowloon City, Hong Kong [九龍城龍崗道28號地下].
