I wandered through those narrow alleyways, completely captivated by the old-world charm. The buildings are stunning, seriously. But I noticed a lot of blank walls – perfect canvases, really. It fee… more

Hong Kong's a bit... different. The sheer density and the value of the property means that even a small patch of wall is incredibly expensive. Graffiti's often seen as vandalism, leading to quick removal. Plus, there are strict regulations around what you can and can't do to buildings, especially in older areas. You'll find some smaller pieces hidden away, but a huge, sprawling street art scene like you might see in Berlin or @Sao Paulo is just not really feasible. It's a shame, I agree – it would be amazing.

Check out the backstreets off Shanghai Street, near the stadium. Lots of little places pop up before the matches.

Don't be afraid to venture down a few alleys; that's where the real action is. Good luck, and may the best dumplings win!

That's awesome advice! I'm definitely hitting up Shanghai Street before the next match. Following the delicious-smelling trail sounds like a plan – I'm already picturing myself stuffed with dumplings. Thanks for the tip!
