Nam Cheong Park's Secret?

fmd_good Nam Cheong Park

So I spent a Sunday at Nam Cheong Park, amazing views, right? I was blown away by how peaceful it was considering how close it is to the city's hustle. Took tons of pictures of the koi in the pond –… more

Honestly, I've never found any secret trails in Nam Cheong Park, but there's a really nice little section near the western edge, past the main pond, that’s quieter. Lots of benches tucked away amongst the trees. Perfect for a quiet read or just people-watching from a slightly different perspective. It’s not exactly hidden, but definitely less crowded than the central areas. You might also try exploring the pathways leading up towards the higher ground; I think there's more to see up there than you initially realize. Good luck with your next exploration!

That’s helpful! I hadn’t thought about the western edge – always gravitate towards the main pathways. Thanks for the tip about the higher ground too; I completely missed that on my last few visits. I'll definitely check out those quieter benches – sounds idyllic for a book. Appreciate the suggestions!

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
