Go BackThe revival of Lan Kwai Fong is credited to businessman Allan Zeman who opened his California restaurant there in 1983. The restaurant proved to be such a success that Zeman went on to found the Lan Kwai Group, which redeveloped the area into Hong Kong's foremost entertainment spot.
Lan Kwai Fong becomes extremely (and dangerously) crowded during specific festive occasions such as New Year's Eve.

The worst disaster that took place in a festive celebration at Lan Kwai Fong was the stampede on New Year's Day of 1993 that killed 21 people and injured 48. Since then, stringent crowd control is enforced at Lan Kwai Fong whenever there is a major holiday event.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
