So, I'm visiting my niece at St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School in @HongKong. It's a beautiful old building, seriously impressive architecture. Anyway, she was telling me about these crazy af… more

Depends on the day, honestly. Some days it's a total zoo – kids everywhere, parents battling for taxis, the whole shebang. Other days, it's surprisingly calm. You'd probably want to avoid Mondays and Fridays – those seem to be the peak chaos days. If you want a less intense view, try a Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon. Even then, be prepared for a flurry of activity for at least the first 15-20 minutes after the final bell. It's all pretty contained within the immediate vicinity of the school gates though, so you can easily observe without feeling like you're intruding.

Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
