Hong Kong has so much to offer — shopping, temples, and street markets. I loved the Ladies' Market and the night view from Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade. But the constant rain on my trip made it less enjoyable; I struggled to get good photos. Also, the air quality wasn't great. Still, friendly locals and amazing wonton noodles saved the trip. Give it a 4.
If you love hiking, Hong Kong is a hidden gem! I did the Dragon's Back trail and the views over Shek O beach were stunning — totally worth the sweat. Also took the ferry to Cheung Chau Island and ate amazing fishballs. The city side is hectic, but the nature here is world-class. Came back with sunburn and happy memories. 5 stars!
Honestly, I was a bit disappointed. Hong Kong is crazy expensive — a small room in Tsim Sha Tsui cost me a fortune, and the noise never stops. The humidity was brutal in August, and some streets in Causeway Bay smelled like garbage. I did enjoy the tram ride up to The Peak, but the view was hazy. For the price, I expected more. 3 stars, maybe I came at the wrong time.
I really enjoyed my week in Hong Kong, especially the food scene — the egg waffles and milk tea are unbeatable. Disneyland was fun but incredibly crowded on a Saturday; we spent half the day queuing. Still, the rides were well-maintained and the staff were polite. Just wish they had better crowd control. Solid 4 stars overall.
Hong Kong blew me away! The skyline from Victoria Harbour at night is absolutely magical — the light show with the skyscrapers reflecting on the water is something you have to see in person. We grabbed dim sum at a tiny cha chaan teng in Mong Kok and it was the best meal of my life. The MTR is incredibly efficient, and everyone we met was friendly. Can't recommend this city enough — 5 stars all the way!
