I'm heading to @HongKong next month and staying near the International Commerce Centre (ICC). I've seen photos of the view from the top, it's insane. But I'm wondering, what's the best time of day to… more

Sunrise. Hands down. Sunset is a complete zoo. You'll still get a fantastic view, but the lines are exponentially longer and you'll be battling a ton of people for photo spots. Plus, the sun's glare can sometimes wash out some of the detail. Go early, get the best light, and have the place practically to yourself. You won't regret it.

That's a lovely story! Finding out about that hidden garden would be amazing. St. Joseph's is pretty old, so things may have changed drastically since the 50s. Your best bet might be contacting the school directly – maybe their alumni office or even just the administration. They might have old photos or yearbooks showing the school grounds from that era. Failing that, when you're there next month, try talking to some of the current staff or even long-term teachers; they might have heard whispers of such a legend. Good luck with your search! Let us know what you find!

Fingers crossed someone remembers something...or at least knows someone who does! I'll be sure to update everyone on my progress. Thanks for the tips!
