Escalators to Nowhere?

Yeah, those Mid-Levels escalators are a trip! I've gotten hopelessly turned around there myself. Google Maps is… helpful, sometimes. But often it's just not detailed enough for those winding paths. The "dead ends" are a real thing – often they're just service areas or parts of the system that are temporarily closed. My best tip? Don't rely solely on Google Maps. Try to get a physical map beforehand, maybe one of those touristy fold-out things. They're usually more accurate for that specific area's quirks. Also, pay attention to the actual numbered signs along the escalators themselves – they can sometimes hint at where things lead. It sounds crazy, but carrying a compass might even help, especially if the fog rolls in. Good luck, and don't be afraid to ask locals for directions! They're usually pretty helpful.
Finding Peace in Nam Cheong?
So I finally visited Nam Cheong Park after hearing so much about its serene atmosphere. Pictures don't do it justice
Yeah, Nam Cheong is surprisingly chill. I always figured it'd be more crowded, given its location. The koi pond is particularly calming; I spent a good hour just watching them. Got some killer photos of the skyline too, though.
