About this audio guide
This guide to the Avenue of Stars in Hong Kong opens with Bruce Lee's handprint, cast decades after his 1973 death for a promenade honoring the film industry that put the city on the map. It follows the more than a hundred plaques of Hong Kong stars along the waterfront, including forty-seven left blank of prints because those actors had already died, and touches on how the industry once rivaled Hollywood. Walk the four-hundred-and-forty-metre rail with Victoria Harbour at your back.
