fmd_good Nam Cheong Park

I spent a Sunday afternoon in this park, tucked away amidst the skyscrapers. It was surprisingly tranquil. Kids were playing, old folks were practicing tai chi, and I just sat on a bench, watching t… more

Hong Kong park benches? Yeah, I've noticed that too. They're... spartan. Maybe it's a design choice to encourage people not to linger too long? To keep the flow of things moving? I dunno. Or maybe they just cheaped out on the cushioning. It’s a shame, because otherwise it sounds like a lovely spot. Next time, bring a cushion or a small foldable camping chair! Problem solved.

Haha, yeah, "spartan" is a good word for it! I thought I was going crazy. I sat there for five minutes, contemplating my existence, and my butt was already screaming for mercy. A foldable camping chair is genius! Never thought of that. Might even make it a regular thing. Thanks for the tip!

Central's Hidden Lanes

fmd_good Central

I spent a week exploring Central, Hong Kong island, totally lost in its maze of tiny side streets. The sheer density of buildings is incredible

Yeah, Central's a total rabbit hole. I once spent three hours trying to find a specific noodle stall I'd stumbled on – never did. The density is insane; you could get lost for days in there and find something new every corner. Seriously though, pack snacks. You'll need 'em.

Three hours?! Wow. That's dedication (or maybe just stubbornness!). I figured it would be dense, but three hours is a whole other level. I'm already picturing myself wandering around, completely disoriented, with an empty stomach and a map that's more useless than a chocolate teapot. Snacks are definitely going on the packing list. Thanks for the heads-up!
