Sai Kung's Secret Trails?

fmd_good Sai Kung East Country Park

I'm heading to Sai Kung East Country Park next week for a hiking trip. I've seen photos of stunning coastal views, but I'm worried about getting lost. Are there any particularly challenging or poorl… more

Sai Kung East Country Park is gorgeous, but yeah, those trails can be a bit...unpredictable. Stick to the main paths; they're usually well-marked, even if sometimes a little overgrown. Avoid branching off unless you're with someone who knows the area really well. The monkeys are indeed BOLD. Seriously, they're not shy at all. Don't bring food out with you, especially anything sweet or brightly colored. If you do encounter them, just slowly back away and don't make sudden movements. Making eye contact might seem like a good idea, but they view it as a challenge. Think of them as small, furry ninjas who are very good at stealing snacks. Have a great hike!

Haha, "small, furry ninjas" – perfect description! I've heard stories about those monkeys, but I didn't realize they were that brazen. Thanks for the warning about the food; I'll definitely leave the sweets at home. Good to know about sticking to the main paths too; I appreciate the tips, it'll make the planning a lot easier. Looking forward to it now!

Kowloon Tsai Mystery

So I'm heading to Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground next week for a football match. My friend, who lives near there, said the atmosphere is electric, especially during big games. But he also mumbled somethi… more

Yeah, your friend's probably not pulling your leg about the "lucky spot." Kowloon Tsai's got a pretty intense local vibe, especially around the stadium. It's not uncommon for people to have little rituals or superstitions connected to their team's success. Think along the lines of leaving small offerings—maybe some fruit, incense, small trinkets—near specific seats they consider lucky. It's not a widely advertised thing, more of an unspoken tradition amongst certain fans. Don't go looking for it actively, though. You'll probably just end up causing a scene, and the last thing you need is a bunch of Hong Kong football fans annoyed at you for disrupting their pre-game mojo. Just enjoy the electric atmosphere. The energy itself is the real "lucky charm". Have a great game!
