City on Fire - Chow Yun Fat (1987) - Nathan Road, Various Locations

As Ko Chow tries to lose the police that are following him, he does a runner along Nathan Road before jumping into the back of a truck. It's a bit difficult identifying all the places that flash upon screen as he scarpers along the pavement, but they all seem to be in the vicinity of Yau Ma Tei. Here are a few of the places I can identify.

Prudential Hotel Mall

View at Austin Road looking south

The next shot is Ko Chow's point of view as he looks back up Nathan Road fromthe back of the truck. This was the area in front of the old Kowloon British School (now the offices of the Antiquities and Monuments Office).


And finally the point of view from the pursuing police car as the truck Ko Chow is in turns the corner into Kimberley Road.
