Aerosoft has a good representation of the old Kai Tak and the city, developed by FlyTampa which makes very good sceneries indeed, including the famous checkerboard approach. Whether they included the often strong crosswinds that blew planes way off the centerline, I do not know, I only saw the videos. When the module was released in its first incarnation (then still for the FS2004), the hardware at that time could hardly run it, due to the many buildings. A FSX version was released later. Unfortunately, with 30 Euros it is one of the more expensive sceneries around.

Older, from 2D cockpit of the PMDG 747, but shows the frontal view when approaching:
(move time slider to around 5:20)

And a better sight on the scenery:
