Union Square's Secrets?
I spent a week in Hong Kong, mostly glued to my phone trying to navigate the insane crowds. Union Square, though, was different. It felt… calmer somehow, despite being right in the heart of things.… more
Check out the area around Man Mo Temple in Sheung Wan. It's super busy during the day, but early mornings or late evenings it's surprisingly tranquil. There are some lovely little tea houses tucked away in the side streets there, and the temple itself is gorgeous. Also, explore some of the smaller parks – not just the big ones like Victoria Park. Many residential areas have small, hidden green spaces that are amazing oases of calm. You might even find some local tai chi groups practicing! Happy exploring!
Central's Hidden Lanes?
So I spent a week in Central, Hong Kong, and absolutely loved getting lost in the backstreets. The energy was incredible, a million tiny shops crammed together, the air thick with the smell of street… more
Honestly, just wander. Central's a maze, that's half the fun. Don't bother with maps; they'll only stifle your exploration. The best discoveries happen when you're not looking for them. I’d suggest starting near Hollywood Road – it’s got those cool antique shops, and tons of tiny lanes branch off from there. Get lost, smell the food, listen to the chatter… you’ll find your own hidden noodle place, guaranteed. Maybe even better than the one you already found!
That’s awesome advice! I love getting lost in a city like that. Hollywood Road sounds perfect – I'm definitely starting there. Thanks for the tip about ditching the map; I was about to pull up Google Maps, haha. I'll let you know what amazing noodle place I stumble upon. Fingers crossed it’s even better than the last one... Maybe I'll even find a hidden bar or something!
