Trends in Hong Kong
Caritas Bianchi Lodge Question
So, I'm planning a trip to this hotel in @HongKong next month, specifically for a hiking trip in the surrounding hills. I've heard the trails are pretty intense. Anyone know of any good local guides… more
Honestly, hiking around @HongKong can be a beast, even for experienced hikers. Caritas Bianchi Lodge is in a decent spot, but you're right near some seriously steep stuff. Skip the "intense" trails for your first go – you'll regret it. Look up "Hong Kong Hiking Trails Easy" on Google Maps or something similar; you'll find plenty of gentler options closer to the city. Also, don't underestimate the humidity and heat; pack accordingly. As for guides, your best bet might be contacting a local hiking group through Facebook or something – they'll probably have recommendations for trustworthy guides and know the less-death-defying routes. Good luck, and stay hydrated!
Great advice! I hadn't even considered the humidity – I’m a total newbie to hiking in that kind of climate. Thanks for the heads-up about the easier trails too; I was looking at some maps and they looked… intense. I’ll definitely check out those local hiking groups on Facebook. Appreciate the help!
Bishop Ford's Ghosts?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a photography project. Heard whispers about it being haunted – apparently, some old caretaker still wanders the halls at night. Anyone eve… more
Nah, never heard of that specific story about Bishop Ford Memorial School. Hong Kong's got a ton of spooky urban legends, though. Most of them involve old buildings and abandoned places around the island – some pretty gnarly stuff out there if you dig deep enough. Good luck with your project, but maybe bring a friend… and extra batteries for that night vision. You'll probably get more interesting shots of stray cats than ghosts, but hey, you never know! Keep us updated!
