Kai Tak was an international airport situated in the heart of Hong Kong’s Kowloon Peninsula. In 1998, it was replaced by the Hong Kong International Airport in Chek Lap Kok, but Kai Tak Airport still sparks nostalgia among both aviation professionals and Hongkongers alike. While Hong Kong’s "new" airport is considered one of the best in the world, fond memories remain of old Kai Tak, a city symbol with a memorable place in local history.
