Hong Kong

From Transformers Wiki

In that brief moment before insurance premiums skyrocketed.

Hong Kong (香港Hoeng¹ Gong² /Xiānggǎng) is a large city with skyscrapers, industrial areas, and abysmally expensive housing. It has a harbor and is bordered at least partially by mountainous terrain. Street vendors seem to be common, though many of their goods will be damaged by high-performance sports cars, giant robots, and/or giant robot dinosaurs. Hong Kong residents may randomly turn out to be championship-level boxers.
