Hong Kong 2010!
2:14 PM
Went to Hong Kong and back from there! I kinda enjoy myself but my legs are old le, a few flight of stairs makes me tired! HAHAHAHA! Am kinda lazy to upload the pictures here though cause i have uploaded them all in FB! HAHAHAH! Anyways shall briefly say about my trip!
I took Tiger Airways (cost around $350/pax), my advice is if you have better budget take Jet Star or others cause for me i feel rather uncomfortable. Cant sleep well on the plane. Then for hotel i stayed in MetroPark Mongkok (cost around $214/pax for 4 nights!) Quite cheap and convenient. It's 2 mins away from Prince Edward MTR and around 10 mins walk to Ladies Street and some other streets. The hotel staff are very kind to free upgrade for us to superior room without extra charges. I think for sleeping is ok, not too bad, they have all the basic stuffs for us to use also like heater etc.
Day 1 :
HK International Airport
Hong Kong University
Stanley Market
Lan Kwai Fang
Madame Tussaude
The Peak
I think for people my age will enjoy Madame Tussaude (cost HK160) cause you get to take pictures and see all the figurines! HAHA! and The Peak (cost HK25) is a must i guess cause one of their main attractions and the scenery is really beautiful though its really hard to capture a beautiful picture unless you buy the pictures from them.
Day 2 :
Disneyland
Though HK disneyland (cost HK350) is not big but i enjoyed myself taking pictures with all the characters in disneyland. Makes me feels like a child once again. The rides are not thrilling so for those who love thrilling ride its not for you. They have this water parade where all the characters will show face so i think it will make up for it cause it's damn cool! HAHA! And they have fireworks every night though i didnt go but i guess it's beautiful so if you have time can go over and have fun!
Day 3 :
Shen Zhen
Avenue of Stars
Shen Zhen is good for buying cheap clothes, shoes etc. Can bargain with the people there! HAHA! I think it's a must to go Shen Zhen if you happen to be in HK or maybe consider to stay in Shen Zhen for 3D2N for some shoppings will be good too! But always be careful cause there are alot of pickpockets around and when you put your bags inside the scanning machine, please take out your wallets! There are stories that there are people inside the scanning machine taking people's wallet, i dont know if its true but it's better to be careful! Avenue of Stars has very nice scenery too but i think it's kinda boring though, but different people have different views so you can go over to see if you are interested too!
Day 4 :
Tung Chung
Shop around Mongkok area
Tung Chung is a outlet factory so for those for likes branded stuff, that's the place for you! They have discounts from 30%-70%! Prepare your credit cards when you go over! HAHA! They also have a very big supermarket call Taste, if you have spare time can go in to see see look look also! HAHA!
That's the round up for my trip!! Any questions feel free to ask me! HAHA! Pictures in FB so take a look there!! (:
