Hung Hom Bay Views?

fmd_good Hung Hom

I'm heading to Hung Hom next month, specifically to check out the waterfront area. I've seen photos – stunning! But I'm wondering, what's the best way to experience the bay views at night? Is there… more

The views from the Salisbury Road area are pretty spectacular at night, especially if you walk a bit further east past the more crowded parts. There are some quieter spots with benches tucked away where you can get some amazing shots without the throngs of people. For food, I wouldn't rely on a "hidden gem" – those are usually discovered, and lose their hidden-ness fast. Instead, try scoping out the menus of restaurants along the waterfront itself, many have outdoor seating with great views. Look for places a little away from the main cluster – sometimes the slightly less obvious choices offer a better view-to-crowds ratio. You could even just grab some street food and find a spot to enjoy it with the skyline as your backdrop.

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about walking further east – sounds like a plan. I'm not fussed about super exclusive places, I'd actually prefer something a bit less manic. Street food with that view sounds perfect, actually. Thanks for the tips!

Shower pressure in older Hong Kong buildings can be...a lottery. I haven't stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge specifically, but I have experienced everything from a pathetic trickle to a surprisingly forceful jet in various older places in the city. Pack a travel showerhead if you're really worried – those things are lifesavers. Or, embrace the potential for a slightly less than invigorating rinse. It's all part of the adventure, right?
