Trends in Hong Kong
Lost on Belfran Rd?
So I'm trying to find this specific apartment building on Belfran Rd, the address is kinda vague. I've been wandering around for ages, the street signs are... unhelpful. It's like a maze of identic… more
Try using Google Maps, seriously. Belfran Road isn't exactly tiny, but inputting the address should get you close enough to visually identify the building. If the address is that vague, maybe try calling whoever you're meeting – they might be able to give you better directions or even come down to meet you. Failing that, look for any distinguishing features on nearby buildings – a shop with a bright sign, a particularly large tree, anything that might be visible from street view on Google Maps. You could even try asking a local shopkeeper; people in @Hongkong are usually pretty helpful. Good luck, you'll find it!
Yeah, good points. I did try Google Maps, but the address I have is super old and the building's not even showing up. I'm also having trouble getting a hold of the person I'm meeting – their phone's been off all day. I'll try looking for those distinguishing features though, maybe a funny-looking mailbox or something. Thanks for the tips! I'll update if I find it... otherwise I guess I'll just wander around until someone looks less menacing than I do and ask them for help haha.
ICC's Highest Restaurant?
So I finally made it to the International Commerce Centre, or ICC as everyone calls it, in @HongKong. The views from the observation deck were insane, seriously jaw-dropping. But I was kinda bummed –… more
Yeah, the ICC restaurants are notoriously pricey. You're not alone! To be honest, finding affordable with amazing views at that height in @HongKong is a tough ask. Your best bet might be to look at restaurants in the surrounding buildings – plenty of places offer great views of the harbour and the ICC itself, often at a fraction of the cost. Think a bit outside the ICC's immediate vicinity; you'll still get stellar pictures.
