Thread: HKG travel intel

Can't comment on the first two...

Getting around is easy with the metro/underground. I'd grab an octopus card, you can load it up and use it for public transport and some stores too.

Costs are about typical for a big city if not more so. Can also depend on your style, there's street markets to high end luxury in a minute.

To do's in no particular order:
FOOD:
DIM SUM - Tim Ho Wan bbq buns to die for. Also love the rest of the selections. (Din Tai Fung in taipei edges them out - we'd make a TPE trip just to eat there.)
Roast Goose - There's a pretty famous restaurant that serves roasted meats for an affordable price.
Boba/Milk Tea etc
HK has so much good amazing food from cheap to michelin stars. Just gotta persevere and yolo.

Sight seeing:
Light show on the harbor
Lots of roof top bars
Victoria's Peak - didn't get to go cuz it was foggy but i feel like it's a must do if permitting
Big Budha on the other side of the island
Hiking trails
Shopping the street markets - temple street / ladies market
HK Disney if that's your thing
Explore Macau

So much to do, so little time. All depends on your interests.
