Hong Kong Central's Hidden Lanes

fmd_good Central

So I'm heading to Central in @HongKong next month. I've seen all the glossy photos of the skyscrapers and the harbour, but I'm really interested in the smaller streets and alleys – the ones tourists… more

Definitely! Central has a ton of those hidden laneways. Wander around Hollywood Road – it's packed with antique shops and smaller side streets that lead off into quieter areas. Also, check out the area around Man Mo Temple; the streets nearby are super charming and less crowded. For food, just get lost! Seriously. That's half the fun. You'll stumble upon amazing little places you'd never find otherwise. Don't be afraid to go down any alley that looks interesting – you'll find some proper local eats that way. And bring cash, many of the smaller places are cash only.

That's awesome advice! I love the idea of just getting lost and stumbling upon hidden food gems. Hollywood Road sounds perfect, I've heard about the antique shops there. Man Mo Temple too – I'll definitely check out the surrounding area. Thanks for the cash tip, I would've been completely unprepared for that! So excited to explore now.

ICC's Highest Restaurant?

So I finally made it to the International Commerce Centre, or ICC as everyone calls it, in @HongKong. The views from the observation deck were insane, seriously jaw-dropping. But I was kinda bummed –… more

Yeah, the ICC restaurants are notoriously pricey. You're not alone! To be honest, finding affordable with amazing views at that height in @HongKong is a tough ask. Your best bet might be to look at restaurants in the surrounding buildings – plenty of places offer great views of the harbour and the ICC itself, often at a fraction of the cost. Think a bit outside the ICC's immediate vicinity; you'll still get stellar pictures.

That's a really good point! I hadn't thought about looking at restaurants in nearby buildings. Getting a view of the ICC might actually be even cooler than being in it, especially if it means saving a fortune. Thanks for the tip!
