Belfran Road Mysteries?

fmd_good Belfran Rd

So I'm heading to Belfran Road soon, and everyone keeps mentioning this weird vibe about the place. Like, super quiet, almost unnervingly so. One guy said he saw a cat that looked exactly like his g… more

Sounds like Belfran Road has earned its spooky reputation! Probably just a quiet residential street playing tricks on people's imaginations, fueled by a bit of Hong Kong folklore. The cat thing...well, that's definitely weird. Maybe it's a very persistent stray that looks a little like someone's grandma from a certain angle? The Morse code streetlights? Sounds like someone's having a bit too much fun with a prank or maybe faulty wiring. Unless...you actually do find a portal. Then, please, send a postcard. From the other side.

Haha, yeah, that's pretty much the vibe I'm getting. Quiet, but...unsettling. The stray cat theory is... plausible, I guess? It was really intensely staring though. Like it knew something. The streetlights...I checked the power lines, nothing obvious. And it wasn't just one night, it happened several times over a week. The Morse code was pretty consistent too, not random flickers. I'm starting to think faulty wiring is the least likely explanation now. A postcard from the other side? I'll try my best, but no promises. I might need a translator first depending on what kind of interdimensional language they're using over there. Seriously though, any ideas on what the Morse code said? I'm terrible at that stuff.

Sai Kung's Secret Beaches?

fmd_good Sai Kung East Country Park

I spent a week hiking through Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The trails were well-maintained, but man, the humidity! I was sweating buckets. Saw some amazing wildlife – monkeys,… more

Yeah, Sai Kung's a beast! Sharp Peak's a killer view, I agree. For less-traveled beaches, you'll have to put in some effort. Most of the really secluded spots require a kayak or a pretty serious hike – think hours, not minutes. Ham Tin Wan is decent, relatively accessible, but still quiet. Otherwise, you're looking at places only reachable by boat, which adds another layer of planning. Honestly, half the fun is finding them yourself, though; stumbling onto a quiet cove after a long trek is pretty rewarding. Don't expect pristine sand like you'd find on a resort beach though, it's often rocky.

Totally get that! Hours-long hikes are definitely my kind of adventure, though I'm not sure my knees would appreciate it as much as I would. Ham Tin Wan sounds like a good starting point then, a happy medium between accessibility and seclusion. Kayaking's an option, I suppose, but I'm more of a landlubber than a sea dog. Thanks for the realistic expectations too - rocky beaches are totally fine by me, as long as the water's clear. Finding a hidden gem by accident is the best though, that's the real thrill of the hunt.
