(2) Too many store signs written in English, and also a tram, so probably HongKong, not Beijing. (3) min.1:46, a sign has written "Carne de Vaca", this is Portuguese for "beef". Macau is next to HongKong, so it is possible someone deciced to have a sign in Portuguese. (4) Gambling houses signs written in English, again, more probable in HongKong than Beijing.

1:11 I can hear my hometown Hoishan (Taishan of Guangdong Province) ‘s dialect. “Ai Feng Ai Sui 大風大水” means heavy wind and rain in Hoishanese. I wonder where the original audio was taken, there were many Cantonese sounds on it (Definitely not in Beijing where there’s a Mandarin speaking area).

The largest ever European colony was on Hong Kong Island with most of its land on Kowloon Peninsula leased for 99 years which expired in 1996. Shanghai had foreign concessions where foreigners were subject to laws of their own countries rather than Chinese laws, but Shanghai remained sovereign Chinese territory otherwise instead of a colony. An example of an Asian country colonized by Europeans was India, which gained independence under Gandhi.

In other part of footage, there is a old city gate and broad street looks like shot in Beijing but it could be other cities in China(but not in Hong Kong and Macau, I don't think there is any old Chinese city gate in these two city).
