Yeah, the mid-levels are a maze! I've lived here for years and still get turned around sometimes. There aren't really "secret shortcuts" in the way you might think – it's all pretty well-mapped out, even if it's chaotic.

Also, try using the smaller, less-obvious side streets and alleys – they often connect to the escalator system at different points. Be prepared to get a little lost, though; that's half the fun! And trust me, even with Google Maps, its a jungle out there.

Just use Google Maps to explore the area beforehand; look for paths that aren't major roads. You'll stumble on some cool stuff, I guarantee it. Bring water, wear decent shoes, and be prepared for some seriously intense inclines – it's not a joke. Have fun, but be aware of your surroundings, especially at night. It’s not exactly dangerous, but it's certainly not Disneyland.
