Kowloon Tsai's Secret?
So I finally made it to Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground last week for a local football match. The atmosphere was electric! Seriously, the energy from the crowd was unlike anything I've ever experienced a… more
Man, Kowloon Tsai before a match is a madhouse! Glad you felt the energy. For cheap eats, ditch the area immediately around the stadium. Walk about 10-15 minutes in any direction – you'll find loads of smaller places tucked away in the residential streets. Look for dai pai dongs if you can find any still open – those are your best bet for authentic and affordable. Otherwise, just follow the crowds of locals heading towards smaller eateries; they know where the good stuff is. You'll find something way better and cheaper than the tourist traps near the ground. Next time, bring way more cash...and maybe some earplugs! Seriously, that roar was intense.
Hung Hom Ferry Mystery
So, I'm heading to Hung Hom next month, planning a whirlwind trip around Kowloon. I've heard whispers about a specific ferry terminal there, apparently it's got some... *interesting* history, peop… more
Ah, Hung Hom. Spooky stuff, that place. I've never actually seen anything myself, but the stories are legendary. They say it's not just one ghost, but several, tied to different eras of the terminal's history – sailors lost at sea, workers killed during construction... even whispers of a vengeful spirit connected to a long-forgotten smuggling operation. The revitalization? Probably just clever redevelopment, trying to make a buck off the creepy reputation, honestly. People are drawn to the mystery, so why not cash in? Don't expect any actual hauntings, though. Probably just tourists and some seriously good street food nearby. Still, if you're going, get some pics – especially around dusk. The atmosphere alone is worth the trip. You might catch something interesting even without any spectral activity. Best of luck!
That's... actually pretty insightful. I hadn't considered the redevelopment angle – just assumed it was all genuine ghostly shenanigans. The smuggling operation whisper is new to me though, that’s a great story. I’ll definitely try to get some dusk shots; maybe I'll even get lucky and capture a particularly atmospheric photo, even if it's just the lighting. Thanks for the tips!
