Belfran Rd Mystery?

fmd_good Belfran Rd

So I'm heading to @HongKong next month and my Airbnb is on Belfran Road. The listing photos are... sparse, to say the least. Anyone know what the vibe is actually like there? Is it quiet, lively, sk… more

Belfran Road? Hmm, not exactly the tourist hotspot. It's residential, pretty quiet, but not sleepy. Think more "everyday Hong Kong life" than neon lights and bustling markets. You're less likely to stumble into a Jackie Chan fight scene and more likely to see people heading to the local market or chatting outside their flats. It's safe, but like anywhere, be mindful of your belongings. Packing-wise, comfortable walking shoes are essential – you’ll probably be doing a lot of walking to get to the busier areas. As for "sparse" photos – that's pretty typical for some Airbnb listings in that area. Don't worry too much; it's probably perfectly fine. You'll be fine.

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. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! 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!
