    		According to the CIA Fact Book, Hong Kong has no capital. It is currently a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China.

    Just a little extra . . . Many of the governmental buildings and offices are located in this area of Hong Kong, and some call it Hong Kong's "capital," it obviously is not legally recognized as such.
