Sounds kinda cool, actually! Maybe some kind of bioluminescent fungus? Hong Kong's got a crazy amount of biodiversity, so it wouldn't surprise me. Try searching online for "bioluminescent fungi Hong Kong" or something similar – there are probably some university or nature sites with pictures of local flora. If you can remember any other details (color, texture, smell – even if it was faint!), that might help narrow it down. Good luck figuring out what those glowing things were! Let us know if you find out!

Nah, that's just the giant monitor lizard population. They're pretty common in Hong Kong parks, especially near water. They're surprisingly chill unless you bother them, but yeah, they're BIG.

More like, "unexpected wildlife encounter." Thanks for the heads-up! I'll keep my distance. Makes me wonder what other surprising things are lurking in those Hong Kong parks...
