Related Hong Kong Favorites Tips

Favorite thing: Stay away from the typical tourist circuits! Hong Kong is such a vibrant place with so much to do - who needs to be herded around like sheep. Easy to explore and plenty of great people to help make suggestions. Be sure to spend time checking out the small shops and markets, particularly in the Tsim Sha Tsui area of Kowloon (watch out for ripoffs on Nathan Road) and Temple Market on HK Island.

Fondest memory: was the people. Culture, politics, geography, lifestyles, are so rich and diverse, yet everyone is so friendly and accommodating. Taxi drivers will make you feel at home if you are from Chicago or New York.

Favorite thing: El chino es el ser más comerciante que existe sobre la faz de la tierra. Hong-Kong, cuándo la visité seguía siendo colonia inglesa. La moneda es emitida por los bancos allí presentes. A nivel de visita, es encontrate cómo en New York comprimido. Tiene alguno de lo edificios más altos de Asia, y alguna de las obras de ingeniería más importantes del mundo (p.e. el tunel que comunica la isla con la península). Para comer ojito, la comida aquí es de estilo cantonés, muy fuerte. Recomendable la sopa de aleta de tiburón. No recomendable el comer carne (el perro joven y el gato viejo).

La noche se concentra en la isla en varias discotecas de alto nivel (ojo, no puedes bailar en la pista con una copa en la mano).

Lo que más me chocó, es ver a algún indigente (practicamente no existen), pidiendo de cara a la pared (cómo en simbolo de humillación).

Hay miles de tiendas en dónde comprar de todo (telas, tallas, joyas, electrónica, pinturas, marfil,.....)

Fondest memory:
No.1 has to be local hospitality, VT member Yin!
No.2 the view from the peak!
No.3 the night view of the HK island side.
No.4 the Irish pub!
No.5 well, theres just so much more. . . .

Fondest memory: Well I guess its home now so I miss my own space when I'm away. I miss my friends and I miss my computer but I can't say that I love Hong Kong nor do I particularly like it - however its giving us financial stability for the future and right now its a great place to be with the kids -just the climate means we can do things we wouldn't if we were in the UK.

Favorite thing: eat the food sold in the streets of Hong Kong.
Also, go to Fa Yuen Street ( in Mongkok ) to buy clothes.
For electricity appliance, go to Ap Liu Street ( in Sham Shui Po)
To see the view of Hong Kong, go to the peak.
Try the ferry across the Victoria Harbour.
Go to the Temple Street at night, plenty of things to buy and foods to try.
