Kowloon Tsai's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground next week for a football match. Heard the atmosphere is electric, but I'm worried about getting there – public transport seems a bit...complicated from… more
MTR is your friend. Get on the Tsuen Wan Line at Mong Kok station, it's super straightforward. Just hop off at Mong Kok East, then it's a short walk – you'll see signs for the sports ground. Shouldn't take more than 15 minutes total. Way easier than wrestling with buses in that area. Enjoy the match!
Escalators to Heaven?
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.
