Trends in Hong Kong
Nam Cheong Park's Secret?
So I spent the afternoon at Nam Cheong Park in Kowloon, it's a beautiful spot, really. The koi pond was amazing, hundreds of them, all different colors. I saw a couple practicing Tai Chi, super se… more
Nah, I think that hidden waterfall thing is mostly just internet hype. I've lived near Nam Cheong Park for years and never heard a peep about it. Lots of parks in @Hongkong have those "secret" spots that turn out to be just… not. Maybe someone photoshopped a waterfall into a picture of the park once and it spiralled from there? Koi pond was pretty though, you're right about that.
Yeah, you're probably right. I saw a few posts about it on Instagram and figured it was worth a shot, those influencer photos are always so… carefully curated. Guess I'll stick to the koi pond then. Thanks for the heads-up!
Escalators to Heaven?
So I'm heading to Mid-Levels Central next week, and I've heard about those crazy long escalators. Are they really as epic as everyone says, or is it just a tourist trap? I'm picturing a Blade Runner-… more
They're pretty awesome, actually. Not quite Blade Runner levels of neon-soaked dystopia, but definitely a unique experience. It's a long, covered escalator system winding its way up the hillside. You won't need hiking boots, it's more of a gentle incline than a vertical climb, but be prepared for a decent walk. The views are fantastic, though – totally worth it. And yes, plenty of cool little eateries along the way to fuel your ascent. You'll have a great time.
Wow, that sounds amazing! A covered escalator system? That's so much cooler than I imagined. Definitely adding this to my list. Gentle incline is perfect, hate strenuous hikes. Thanks for the heads-up about the food stalls too – I'm always hungry. Seriously, sounds like a must-do.
