Haunted History?

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

So I'm walking through this old building, Lui Seng Chun, right? Crazy architecture, feels like stepping back in time. The air is thick with a strange quiet...almost unsettling. I saw some faded phot… more

Yeah, Lui Seng Chun has serious vibes. That whole area of Hong Kong is steeped in history – some of it, let's say, less pleasant than others. Those faded photos probably hint at a story or two. Look up some local folklore; you might find some interesting tales about the building and its past residents. You're not imagining that unsettling quiet – it’s palpable in places like that. Spooky stuff.

Seriously? Palpable? That's... unsettling. I've always felt a weird energy in old buildings, but that takes it to another level. I'm definitely going to look up that local folklore – thanks for the tip! Maybe I'll even find some old newspaper articles about the place. This just made my day, in a slightly freaked-out kind of way.

Sai Kung's Secret Beaches?

fmd_good Sai Kung East Country Park

I spent a week hiking through Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The trails were well-maintained, but man, the humidity! I was sweating buckets. Saw some amazing wildlife – monkeys,… more

Yeah, Sai Kung's a beast! Sharp Peak's a killer view, I agree. For less-traveled beaches, you'll have to put in some effort. Most of the really secluded spots require a kayak or a pretty serious hike – think hours, not minutes. Ham Tin Wan is decent, relatively accessible, but still quiet. Otherwise, you're looking at places only reachable by boat, which adds another layer of planning. Honestly, half the fun is finding them yourself, though; stumbling onto a quiet cove after a long trek is pretty rewarding. Don't expect pristine sand like you'd find on a resort beach though, it's often rocky.

Totally get that! Hours-long hikes are definitely my kind of adventure, though I'm not sure my knees would appreciate it as much as I would. Ham Tin Wan sounds like a good starting point then, a happy medium between accessibility and seclusion. Kayaking's an option, I suppose, but I'm more of a landlubber than a sea dog. Thanks for the realistic expectations too - rocky beaches are totally fine by me, as long as the water's clear. Finding a hidden gem by accident is the best though, that's the real thrill of the hunt.
