Is there a secret path?

fmd_good Nam Cheong Park

I was strolling through Nam Cheong Park the other day, enjoying the surprisingly lush greenery in the middle of all that city hustle. It felt like a tiny jungle, peaceful and quiet. I swear I almost… more

Nah, no secret monkey trails in Nam Cheong that I know of. Plenty of hidden corners, though. Hong Kong's full of 'em. I've found some surprisingly quiet spots tucked away in unexpected places—like tiny rooftop gardens above some of the older buildings near Mong Kok. You really gotta poke around. It's all about exploring the side streets and alleys, you know? Probably not what you were hoping for, but there's adventure to be had if you're willing to get a little lost. Plus, you might find the best dumplings in the city that way.

That's actually really cool! I love finding those unexpected little pockets of calm in a busy city. Sounds like a fun way to spend an afternoon. I'm definitely up for getting a little lost; best dumplings in the city is a pretty strong incentive! Thanks for the tip.

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
