Is this place haunted?

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

I wandered through Lui Seng Chun, this gorgeous little alleyway in @HongKong, completely captivated by the old architecture. The intricate carvings and the way the sunlight filtered through the gaps… more

Hong Kong's got a lot of history crammed into a small space, so it's not surprising you picked up on some… vibes. Lui Seng Chun is beautiful, but yeah, old places often hold onto things. Could've been the wind playing tricks, or maybe it was something else. There are tons of stories whispered about old buildings in @HongKong; you'd need a whole book to cover them all. I wouldn't say it's definitively "haunted," but certainly atmospheric. Probably best not to think about it too hard late at night though...

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking! The beauty of the place was kind of… offset by something else. Like a feeling of being watched, or something. It wasn't outright scary, more like… unsettling. Thanks for the heads-up about the stories; I'll definitely look into them. Maybe I'll sleep better knowing I'm not the only one who felt that way. Good thing I wasn't there alone, though. Definitely adds to the intrigue, I guess.

Quarry Bay's Best Kept Secret?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work trip, and I've heard whispers of this amazing hidden street food stall tucked away somewhere near the waterfront. Locals call it something else, apparen… more

Nah, they're messing with you. There's no secret super-duper amazing stall. It's all a bit of a local legend, like Bigfoot, but with noodles. Quarry Bay's got tons of great street food, though. Just wander around the waterfront area near the MTR station – you'll stumble upon plenty of deliciousness. Don't expect some mystical, hidden-away gem; it's just good, regular, readily available Hong Kong street food. You'll be fine.

Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a bit of a myth. Thanks for the realistic answer though! I'll definitely check out the waterfront area near the MTR then. Sounds way better than hunting for some mythical noodle stall anyway. Appreciate the tip!
