    Eventhough the area is bit larger than USS Singapore, I feel here is smaller just because the too crowded the people, start after lunch time.
    Coming here at 10am and we got special lane, since we were stay in Disneyland hotel, this is important, because you can save 30 mins if regular lane.
    Strong advice if you are tourist, you buy VVIP ticket for special lane for 8 riding, you will save a lot of time compared to regular lane for each riding.

    Lunch time need to 1 hour advance, or you will be stuck in every restaurant in Disney park.

    Waiting for Christmas tree show was absorbing our energy since we need to waiting 45 mins before start.
    As well as, we were waiting for fire work show at 9.30pm.

    Actually, for the show, are not too interesting. Also not too many characters surrounding in the park, so we cannot the photo, just a few of characters which are not special one.

    If you stay in Disneyland hotel, you will feel comfortable since no need have long trip from the park to get a rest after whole day walked for 20,000 steps.

    Email me if there is anything you want to know.

    I think enough for 1 time come here, since feel boring and not too special atmosphere.

    My visit there was actually very quick but satisfying. I boarded the cable car going there quite late at 4pm so I had only 45 minutes to really see the beauty of the buddha. Although I decided not to climb up the stairs due to the lack of time, I was able to look and observe closely from afar the magnificence of the statue. The atmosphere was serene, windy and calm and I like the tranquility that it gave me at the time. I am sure that I'd be much more immersed if I had more time to go up and see the buddha's face right in front of me. With the monastery nearby, I could see monks walking by. What's more, it was also the time when GO PANDA was stationed there so I was hitting many birds in one stone. It was a golden day, a golden experience!

    The experience was great, and I saw many things. However, it is best to come early since there will be a long line for the cable car to descend (at least 30 minutes). Despite this, the staff is very attentive and kind, and they even handed out food, warm water, and heating pads for free since it was winter.

    I come to Hong Kong many times and each time, I always try and go to Lantau Island. A tranquil escape from Hong Kong. This is a good option if you are in transit and have some time to kill, as it is close to the airport. The cable car is the best way to reach Lantau Island. Easily accessible from Tung Chung MTR. Lantau Island has a lot to offer from beaches to hiking trails, nature and more. There is also the historic Tai O fishing village which is like stepping back in time. You can get around the island by bus. If you are short on time, then I would suggest doing the highlights which is the Tian Tan Buddha statue and Po Lin Monastery. Always go early if you can, as it is quieter in the morning and you can do more.

    I really enjoyed the energy early on a Sunday evening.  Bustling, noisy, neon lights, shopping, food and more.  This is Hong Kong.  A little rough around the edges but safe.  I was a solo female traveller.  Like stepping into the old and new.  The area seemed to smell like pee everywhere!  Not sure why, but worth a trip.

    This is not very well advertised but well worth the visit...
    Steep climb but you can stop to view all the Buddhas on the way up to make it slower and easier - worth a visit

    we took bus 21 from Ngong Ping village to the Tai Po. Tried the 20mins dolphin sightseeing boat ride at HKD 40 and managed to catch a quick sight of the white dolphin.
    We walked around the street near the canal and tried the many local snacks.
    Going back to Hong Kong central was another long ride on the public bus and transfer onto MTR.

    Getting to Lamma Island was easy. Just catch the right ferry from Central Pier. We chose to start at Yung Shue Wan where there would be cafes. We had been doing a lot of walking the previous 3 days, so we had originally intended to check out Hung Shing Yeh beach and then turn back, but somehow we just walked and walked and before we knew it, it didn’t make sense to turn back anymore! So we trekked all the way to the other end at Sok Kwu Wan. Views along the way were amazing! To be honest, although it’s named as a Family Trail, it’s quite challenging for young kids. Some parts are pretty steep. Having said that, my 6-year-old completed the trail with us! There’s a famous soya beancurd stall run by an old granny. Very modest setup, but booming business! Apparently, the famous Chow Yun Fatt is a native of this island!

    We somehow seem to gravitate to Nathan Road whenever we visit Hong Kong. The place intrigues with the mix of high-end fashion, boutiques, electronics, jewelry shops and the restaurants that always seem busy late afternoon and evenings in particular. Attractions include Kowloon Park and the Kowloon Mosque, Peninsula Hotel, St. Andrew's Church, Chungking Mansions and more. We have never managed the walk the entire length despite our many visits. Bedazzling at night with the colourful neon signage that pays scant respect to climate change.

    Calming and peaceful. This is a must when visiting Lantau Island. Located right next to the Tian Tan Buddha statue. Suggest doing that first and then coming here. Be respectful. You don't need to cover shoulders or remove footwear. The Grand Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas is quite something.

    Sai Kung is a wonderful area just a 20-30 minute drive from Kowloon. Here, you’ll find green nature, beautiful beaches, delicious seafood, and peace—a much-needed break from Hong Kong's hectic hustle among the skyscrapers.

    We splurged and stayed for 4 days at the luxury WM Hotel with sea views, an infinity pool, and a huge breakfast buffet.

    But you can't just sit around all day, right? You need to explore the beautiful nature and find one of the fantastic beaches.

    The goal of the hike is Trio Beach. This beach is only accessible by hikers and from the sea—you can sail there in 10 minutes with a cheap ferry (sampan) from Pak Sha Wan Pier.

    We found a walking route on Google Maps from the WM Hotel to Trio Beach. It’s about 4.5 km each way.

    Alternatively, you can find almost the same route on alltrails.com, starting from Pak Sha Wan and ending at Trio Beach. The hike is called ‘Trio Beach Hike.’

    The hike is moderately challenging. Much of the trail is on bumpy gravel paths, going up and down hills. Around you, there’s lovely nature, butterflies, and stunning views of water on both sides.

    It's a beautiful and slightly challenging hike. Bring plenty of water, a sun hat, and swimwear. Trio Beach is a lovely sandy beach with fantastic water, changing rooms, and a kiosk selling drinks and snacks.

    Whether you walk back (like we did) or take a sampan depends on your mood and energy.

    A large outlet mall, great if you want big brand names for cheaper prices but wouldn't go out of my way to visit this mall, however it is right next to the cable cars to Lantau Island so it's conveniently located

    If you want a more secluded, perhaps more individualised temple, this is the one for you! Located off of Hollywood Street, Man Mo Temple is an authentic Hong Kong temple with unique features. I particularly like the decor and welcome notes hanging from the ceiling. It’s always interesting watching locals burn incense and praying, as long as you make sure to be respectful

    I really enjoyed this.  Entrance is free for the permanent exhibitions.  It was also free for the special exhibitions. I am not sure if this is always the case.  Go to Admiralty MTR and connect to the East Rail Line.  Alight at Sha Tin (EXIT A3).  The museum is around a 10-minute walk from there.  Easy to navigate.  Two main floors to see.  The ground floor just had a gift shop, seminar room, catering outlet and those sorts of things.  I started with the second floor which was the best for me.  This included Chinese Art and a gallery dedicated to the life and career of the Hong Kong icon, Bruce Lee (outside the museum, there is a huge statue of him).  The first floor included a Cantonese Opera Heritage Hall and a tribute to the passing of genius James Wong.  James Wong was a renowned cultural figure in Hong Kong.  Information is in English as well.  Very interesting without being overloaded with information.  I particularly enjoyed the Bruce Lee gallery, where some 400 invaluable items of Bruce Lee's memorabilia were on display.  Pretty cool.  I loved the Chinese Art as well.  Really good.  I spent just over an hour in there, but you can easily spend longer depending on your interests.  Staff are pleasant and friendly.  Clean.  It wasn't that busy and I am guessing this is due to location as it isn't as central as other museums.  I would recommend going.  It really didn't take that long to get there.
