Asia-Pol Secret Service - Wang Yu (1966) - Kimberley Street, Tsim Sha Tsui

Despite following the guy from Man Mo Temple, Wang Yu ends up Kowloon side and watches him as he enters the China Town Bar on Kimberley Street. This was a real place and was located on Kimberley Street. Doug has a nice bar card for it in his FLICKR collection. Anyway, Wang Yu follows him inside bu not before we get a good look around the area. For those wondering what happened to the bar, the block was redeveloped and became the Kimberley Hotel. The lowest image is from a scene later in the film when they return to the bar but I included it because it captures the large restaurant with the golden columns (image 1). I think it says Taiwoo Restaurant, but the captures aren't quite clear enough to be certain. Perhaps someone else is able to confirm in the comments below.
