Living in the part of Japan the Lonely Planet doesn't mention.

Did you know Chungking Mansions are world-famous (well, kinda)? There's a Wong Kar-Wai film set there, called Chungking Express. I assumed that's why you stayed there.Chungking Express is really good by the way, despite having a pop star in the lead role.
Ha! Just found a description of Chungking Mansions as a "drug-filled, rundown hostel populated by Indians, Pakistanis and Nepalese"!
I would say that was a pretty spot on description! Aparently over 4000 people live in this building.
