Why are there no balconies in Hong Kong?

People who like Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas or travel to Hong Kong will find that many houses in Hong Kong do not have balconies. Nearly 80% of the houses not only have balconies, but also have the characteristics of high-density floors. Someone wants to ask why, and today I will explain why.

Many people think that balconies have many advantages, such as good air permeability, beauty and practicality, but many people in Hong Kong don't have balconies, which is why many people don't understand them. In fact, balconies have many functions, such as drying clothes, drinking tea and planting plants, so that people can play with relatives and friends on the balcony in their leisure time, so we can't understand the experience of Hong Kong without balconies.

In fact, the land in Hong Kong is very precious, so it is very luxurious to have a balcony in Hong Kong. The house price in Hong Kong is about140,000, so a small balcony of 34 square meters needs more than 400,000, which most people simply can't afford.

For many ordinary people in Hong Kong, it is good to have a house of 40 to 50 square meters, let alone a house with a balcony. This is simply an extravagant hope for ordinary people, so houses in Hong Kong generally do not have balconies.

Many people in Hong Kong still love nature and enjoy the feeling it brings, but they have no choice but to increase their actual area. How can I hang clothes without a balcony? If it is a small piece of clothes, it can be dried in the corridor. If it is a quilt, you can choose to take it to the public area downstairs to dry. Some families will buy dryers when they are rich. They can dry their clothes directly after washing them.
