Hong Kong is often described as a place where 'East meets West', reflecting the mix of culture through the territory's Chinese roots and influences from its time as a British colony. Hong Kong balances a modernized way of life with traditional Chinese practices. Concepts such as Feng Shui are taken very seriously, experts in such areas are often hired for expensive construction projects. Other objects, such as trigrams, are still regularly used to ward off evil spirits, and buildings often lack any floor that has the number 4, due to its resemblance to the word for "to die" in Cantonese and Mandarin. The fusion of east and west also characterizes Hong Kong's cuisine, where dim sum, hot pot and fast food outlets merge with haute cuisine.
