Lost in the Green Maze?
So I spent the afternoon in this park, trying to find the rumored hidden koi pond everyone talks about. Followed a bunch of winding paths, got totally disoriented, ended up face-to-face with a very u… more
Haha, oh man, that sounds exactly like my experience trying to find that pond! No map, it's pure, glorious chaos. I think the "lost souls" comment is standard operating procedure for anyone who wanders in there too long. Seriously, I spent an hour circling the same three trees. The lack of a map is definitely intentional; adds to the whole "Zen garden" vibe, I guess...or maybe they're just messing with us. Next time, bring a compass and a very good snack.

Yeah, Sai Kung's a beast! Sharp Peak's a killer view, I agree. For less-traveled beaches, you'll have to put in some effort. Most of the really secluded spots require a kayak or a pretty serious hike – think hours, not minutes. Ham Tin Wan is decent, relatively accessible, but still quiet. Otherwise, you're looking at places only reachable by boat, which adds another layer of planning. Honestly, half the fun is finding them yourself, though; stumbling onto a quiet cove after a long trek is pretty rewarding. Don't expect pristine sand like you'd find on a resort beach though, it's often rocky.
