In their second TEDx talk, HK Urbex explain the importance of urban heritage and show how valuable historical sites are under threat. They discuss the paradoxical black hole that is Hong Kong’s housing and land situation, and outline the value of taking risks in this city of dualities. "HKURBEX, or Hong Kong Urban Exploration, are one of the most prominent urban exploration groups in the Asia Pacific region. As a collective of adventurous content creators, they have made it their mission to photograph and immortalise abandoned sites across Hong Kong and Asia. Their exploits are soon to be published in the upcoming book, "Spatial Cemetery" out in late 2017 from Blacksmith Books.
