    It is indeed the smallest Disneyland in the world, but it does not disappoint! You still get the magical experience being in the happiest place on earth, with familiar shapes of your favorite characters in your meals, and the shops are to-die-for! I enjoyed the shops more than the rides as I wouldn’t want to spend more than 40 mins for a queue. Aside from that, great place!

    For Americans this place is not comparable to SeaWorld but more like the good Aquariums you might find in Gatlinburg and Newport/Cincinnati. I thought the admission price of about $16 was a little high for the Philippines but still a bargain compared to US prices. My last visit was 2016 and it has definitely improved since then

    It’s easy to spend a couple of hours here. There are numerous great displays as you go through the different sections. Kids I saw were having a wonderful time and adults young and old seemed to enjoy as well.

    Most everything you want to see is on the first floor. The second makes you walk through long corridors to get to a small display of penguins followed by a “Christmas Village” that is nothing other than a place for photo ops. You can save some time and just skip floor 2.

    It was a nice experience and I am happy it was just another station from Disneyland. Worth the visit, the cable car was good. The area was very rural, not typical HK. Go here when the queue is not long and sun is not too hot.

    Happy Valley Racecourse is one of only two racetracks in the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong. Thoroughbred racing is very popular in Hong Kong, and regular meetings are held at Happy Valley. On-course betting is well-regulated. The track is owned by the Hong Kong Jockey Club, which is the SAR's biggest taxpayer and charitable institution. Hong Kong people love to punt, and Happy Valley also draws many international visitors

    This place is a lot of fun. Very spacious and the amazing vibes. First time in my entire life to attend something like that. It was very crowded but it didn't stop me for enjoying it there to the fullest :)

    Super memorable! It is a strenuous hike (less than twin peaks), but not too long. The path is well marked, and the trail is well maintained. Seven stars out of five! It is a strenuous hike (less than twin peaks), but not too long. The path is well marked, and the trail is well maintained. For a lot of the hike, you will have shade, which is welcome. There are stops along the way for truly Instagram-worthy photos of the amazing views. The best one of course is on the very top of the loin's head (which needs just a bit of agilie rock climbing to get to). On the way back, check your GPS as there are several paths to get down - some short and some long. Instagram-worthy photos of the amazing views.

    Terrific event, as ever (we have been to all of the Sevens)
    2023 Historic, as first time WOMEN'S team has played in the stadium.
    Also great to see so many Hong Kong people, especially youth, attending.
    Carnival atmosphere: HK is back!!!

    …this outcrop is incredible. It really does resemble a lion from the ground and the vistas from the walk up and the peak itself are truly beautiful. Very much recommended for hike, best reached by starting at Fat Jong Temple (get a minibus from Wong Tai Sun or a taxi).

    One of the four beaches that you can visit as part of the Tai Long Wan Hiking Trail in the Sai Kung East Country Park is the Tung Wan Beach, which is the fourth if starting from your hike from the trailhead at the Sai Wan Pavilion.

    Starting with (1) Sai Wan Beach, (2) Ham Tin Beach and (3) Tai Wan Beach, you finally reach (4) Tung Wan Beach. The trail between the first three beaches is well trafficked, wide and easy to follow. However, past Tai Wan Beach, it eventually becomes more natural, unmarked and slightly overtaken by vegetation. Yet, it is still easy to follow, you can't get lost, eventually making your way to a small cliffside that you have to descend before crossing over a cluster of boulders and finally reaching the beach.

    Tung Wan is much smaller than its three sister beaches but is a neat place to find. There is a good chance you'll have the beach all to yourself. If not, there won't likely be more than a few others there, even on busy weekends when small crowds descend upon the larger and more convenient to visit beaches you will have already passed.

    The beach is photogenic with nice sand and blue waters. It is backed by hilly environs and flanked by rocky shores. There is a small freshwater pool that breaks the sand in half. Once here, you are about as isolated from the mass crowds of Hong Kong as you can find.

    Note: there are no public facilities at Tung Wan Beach. Do make sure to stock up on drinks or snacks at the shops at San Wan or Ham Tin Beaches prior to continuing onward to this location.

    A steady walk up to Fei Ngo Shan is like a heavenly path to the unknown paradise. Kowloon's second most famous mountain (perhaps behind Lion's Rock) is a landmark for local couples. While the often-steep climb may be frightening, the view atop, whether be clear sky or misty wilderness is impressive. Although the viewing point is accessible by car, a journey on foot is more rewarding.

    An excellent trail, with incredible views of Tai Tam Reservoir, and a little bit later close views of Central and Tai Koo. From the Wong Nai Chung Gap trail, there is a 600 steps steep climb, but other than that it is all mostly gentle and should be accessible to all ages. Climbing up from the Tai Koo side is a good idea. The trail can get a bit tricky after mount butler as you hop on the Wilson trail, keep your GPS and you'll be fine. Of course, take plenty of water with you.

    Visited Ocean Park on 24th Oct 2019 Thursday, it was not that crowded given the current situation in Hong Kong.
    Most of the attractions no need to queue long except the night time Halloween attraction.
    However we did not participate the Halloween Fest as we are with 2 small young kids with us, never play those thrill rides also. But my kids love the Halloween Trick or Treat because they got lots of candy, haha...

    If compare Disneyland to Ocean Park, I would recommend Disneyland, more fun for us.
    That's my two cents!

    Had several hours to wait for plane home, so decided to give an escape room a go.
    Have played a few times but this was great as had several challenges and many levels for different size groups,

    Great fun, great puzzles and a great fun way to work together on interesting mystery.

    Would highly recommend.

    Went for a friend's birthday and had a great time racing against everyone. Snacks and drinks are basic but cheap, and the competitive driving experience is awesome. Definitely worth a go with friends, if you're into that sort of thing
