Kowloon Tsai Mysteries?

fmd_good Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground

I went to that stadium last week for a local football match. The atmosphere was electric, seriously buzzing. But I noticed something odd – a tiny, almost hidden shrine tucked away near one of the en… more

Hong Kong's full of those, little tucked-away shrines. Often, they're dedicated to local deities or ancestral spirits – something pretty common in older parts of the city. It’s probably not anything overtly mysterious, more like a quiet, personal devotion spot that's just been there for ages. People probably just don't pay it much mind in the rush of a football match. Think of it as a tiny, unnoticed piece of Hong Kong's history clinging on. Unless you saw something really weird near it... then maybe we should talk. ;)

Yeah, that makes sense. It was more the vibe than anything specific. Like, it felt… off. Not creepy, exactly, but definitely unusual. Just a small, unremarkable shrine, tucked away down a side street, but the air around it felt… heavier? I don’t know how to explain it. It wasn't a "football match rush" kind of busy; it was eerily quiet even though I could hear the city noise around it. Maybe I’m just being overly imaginative. Nothing really weird happened, though. Just… a feeling. Probably should have just kept walking.

Sai Kung's Secret Trails?

fmd_good Sai Kung East Country Park

So, I'm planning a hike in Sai Kung East Country Park next month. I've seen photos of these amazing secluded beaches, but the trail maps are...sparse, to say the least. Anyone know of any particular… more

Yeah, Sai Kung's got some seriously killer hidden spots. Forget the main trails; they're a zoo. Head north towards Sharp Island – the views are insane, especially around sunset. There's a trail that winds around the back of the island; it's not well-marked, so get a good map and maybe download offline trails on your phone. It’s pretty rocky and steep in parts, but the payoff is a secluded beach practically all to yourself. You'll probably see more crabs than people. Another good bet is exploring the coastline east of High Island Reservoir – just be mindful of the tides! It's a bit of a scramble, but some seriously epic photo ops await. Bring lots of water, though – you'll need it.

Wow, thanks for the detailed tips! Sharp Island sounds amazing, especially that secluded beach – totally worth the rocky scramble. I'm definitely downloading some offline maps now. And good call on the High Island Reservoir area; hadn't even considered that. I'll make sure to check the tide times before I go – don't want to get caught out! Appreciate the heads-up about the water too. Sounds like a proper adventure.
