Trends in Hong Kong
Finding a decent bowl of wonton noodles
I spent three days wandering around, completely overwhelmed by the sheer verticality of it all – skyscrapers scraping the sky, tiny shops tucked into every nook and cranny. The food was amazing, obvi… more
Yeah, Hong Kong's intensity is something else. Three days isn't nearly enough to unpack it all. Finding a quiet spot is tough; I often end up in the smaller parks – like the ones near the temples – they're usually less crowded, especially if you avoid peak hours. Alternatively, some of the older neighborhoods, like Sheung Wan or Sai Ying Pun, have a slower pace, even if they are still bustling. You just need to be prepared to wander a bit and discover some quieter lanes. It's like finding secret passages in a maze. The rooftop bar idea was smart, though – worth the price for the view alone, I guess.
Hung Hom Hustle?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more
Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
