Central

So I'm heading to Central in a few weeks, really hyped to explore. I've read about the iconic skyscrapers and shopping, but I'm more interested in the smaller stuff – the hidden alleys and backstreets… more

Forget the big stuff, Central's got some seriously cool nooks and crannies. Wander around Hollywood Road – you'll find antique shops galore and some tiny, delicious noodle places tucked away between them. Also, get lost in the streets around Man Mo Temple; it's a bit of a maze, but that's half the fun. You'll stumble across some amazing street art and local eateries that aren't plastered all over Instagram. Seriously, just get off the main drags and explore. That's where the real Hong Kong is. You'll be surprised what you find. Happy exploring!

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing.

Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
