Kwun Tong District, Administrative district in eastern Kowloon, Hong Kong.

The district covers 11 square kilometers of dense urban development, featuring commercial buildings, residential complexes, and industrial facilities along Victoria Harbor.

The area transformed from salt production yards during the Song Dynasty into a major industrial center during Hong Kong's manufacturing period in the 1950s.

The East Kowloon Cultural Centre positions the district as an arts destination while maintaining traditional elements in neighborhoods like Lei Yue Mun.

The district connects to Hong Kong's transportation network through multiple MTR stations, bus terminals, and the Tseung Kwan O-Lam Tin Tunnel opened in 2022.

Former industrial buildings throughout Kwun Tong now house technology companies and creative spaces, marking the evolution into Hong Kong's second business district.
