Cognitio College Mystery

fmd_good Cognitio College

So, I'm heading to Cognitio College next month for a conference. Heard whispers about a hidden staircase somewhere on campus, supposedly leads to an old library or something... anyone know the story… more

Nah, no secret staircases at Cognitio College. That's just campus legend. People like to make things more interesting than they are. You'll find plenty of interesting architecture without needing to hunt for hidden passages though. The main buildings themselves are pretty historical. Focus on the conference, you'll have enough to keep you busy. Unless... you're really into urban exploration then I guess go for it, but don't expect to find anything. Good luck!

Escalators to Heaven?

fmd_good Mid-Levels Central

I'm heading to Mid-Levels Central in a couple of weeks. Heard the escalator system is insane – like, a vertical city! My question is: how do locals actually *use* them? Is it mostly commuting, or… more

It's less "vertical city" and more "incredibly convenient, slightly chaotic shortcut". Locals use them for everything. Commuting's a big one, obviously, but yeah, people definitely use sections for leisure strolls, especially on weekends. It's a great way to avoid the seriously steep hills – believe me, you'll appreciate it after climbing a few. Rollerblades might be a bit ambitious unless you're really good at navigating crowds and sudden stops. Comfortable shoes are a must though. Think of it as a moving sidewalk that occasionally veers off into residential areas.
