Hong Kong's Belfran Road Mystery
So, I'm planning a trip to Hong Kong and Belfran Road caught my eye. It looks pretty quiet online, which is kinda intriguing. I've read about the bustling city life, but quieter residential areas a… more
Honestly, Belfran Road isn't exactly brimming with hidden gems. It's residential, so the "real" experience is just...life. Think quiet streets, maybe some local dai pai dongs tucked away (though those are dwindling), and definitely some small, family-run shops. Your best bet is just wandering around. Don't expect Instagrammable cafes on every corner; that's not really the vibe. To find good noodles, you might have better luck venturing a bit further afield – maybe explore the neighborhoods surrounding it. You'll find more variety and bustling street food scenes there. Belfran Road itself offers a glimpse into everyday Hong Kong life, but it's understated. Think peaceful, not exciting.
Hung Hom Hustle?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more
Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
