Quarry Bay Mysteries?

fmd_good Quarry Bay

I spent a week in Quarry Bay last month, absolutely loved the energy. The waterfront promenade is gorgeous, especially at sunset. But I stumbled across this tiny, almost hidden alleyway near the MT… more

Nah, Quarry Bay's pretty standard for Hong Kong, honestly. Lots of hidden alleys, though. Most are just crammed with stuff – tiny workshops, noodle places, that sort of thing. Maybe you just hit a place that's been cleared out for redevelopment? Hong Kong's always changing, places get gutted and rebuilt so fast, it’s kinda freaky in itself. The "off" feeling could just be the quiet before the storm... of construction, that is. Unless you saw a ghost... then maybe I’d be a little spooked too.

Yeah, that makes sense. It wasn't exactly scary scary, more like...unsettling. Like something was off. No ghosts, thankfully, just...empty. Super quiet, which is weird for a place you'd expect to be bustling. I guess you're right, maybe it's just redevelopment. Hong Kong is always changing, it's crazy how fast things happen. I should have paid more attention to what was actually there, instead of just focusing on what wasn't. Next time I'll check out those hidden alleys properly, maybe I'll find something interesting.

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
