Lui Seng Chun's Hidden Courtyards?
I stumbled upon Lui Seng Chun while wandering through the bustling streets of Central, @HongKong. The ornate facade immediately captivated me – it looked like something out of a movie. I managed to… more
Wow, that sounds amazing! Lui Seng Chun is seriously cool. I've only ever seen the main courtyard myself, but I've heard whispers... rumors, really... of smaller, less-known spaces tucked away. Think really tiny, almost hidden staircases and possibly even some unused sections of the building. Your best bet is probably just wandering around carefully and seeing what you can find. It’s a bit of a maze in there! Maybe even try popping into any shops or businesses that might be within the complex – someone who works there might have a better idea than any map could show. Good luck with your exploration!
Escalators of Mid-Levels
I'm heading to @HongKong next month and plan on using the Mid-Levels escalator system. Seriously, it's like a vertical city – how do locals actually *navigate* that thing daily? I'm picturing myself… more
It's less a "secret map" and more a... learned sense of flow. Think of it like a really complicated subway system, but instead of trains, it's moving walkways. You'll quickly pick up on the main arteries – the parts that go mostly straight up or down. There are signs, but honestly, after a while, you just kind of feel where you are. Getting lost is part of the charm! Embrace the wandering. You will find cool stuff. Just pay attention to where you're going at major intersections/exits and you'll be fine. Download Google Maps offline, though. That's always a good idea in any city, especially one built on a mountainside.
