10 Best Places to Visit In Hong Kong 2024 - FIRST TIME IN HONG KONG

Hong kong was amazing. Mesmerizing temples and vibrant cultural environments

[@laistahir]

6:59 Really Hong Kong is a beautiful place to visit. I visited this city in December 1992 to attend an international conference hel in the Furama hotel. I visited not many places but a few one like the Ocean Park. I really remember this visit because our PM Mr. Nawaz Sharif also came to visit Hong Kong the same time. The roads were clean and the water of the ocean was Cristal clear. Ticketing system of boats, trains and buses all were automatically operated. Hong Kong was near to be liberated from UK and the last Governor from UK was waiting for saying Goodbye to the Hong Kong. We were three person to attend the conference and it was event of 25th of December, the Chrismis day, when we returned back to our country Pakistan. Our country has much more potential and beautiful places tobe developed and perhaps waiting for a leader to come and look at Pakistan as it deserves. Yes, I remember the visit of the Museum where we saw some shows performed by ladies. The statues of Confusios with his students were very interesting. A beautiful Mosq there in the center of commercial hub was maintained properly also visited.

[@tonyivan508]

Beautiful story my friend, why don't you visit Hong Kong again? I'm sure you'll find a completely different city from the time of 92.

[@Bluewater-42]

Thank you so much for posting this great Hong Kong video. We're taking our kids to Japan and Vietnam trip and stopping by Hong Kong for a few days on our way back. This is a perfect layover for us.

[@gingerbeardman8497]

Sure hope I am not too late. It’s near Temple Street Night Market. Some say it’s very confusing area with lots of back alley’s that come alive late nights. Thanks, Good Luck

Having visited HK over 30 times (but not for several years) I wouldn't say your list is the "10 best" things. You didn't mention the Nightlife; HK Island; The Peak; the street markets: Temple Street & Stanley; Felix Bar in the Peninsular Hotel; the Trade Development Centre; street food; high end restaurants; Kowloon late night shopping facilities; so on and so forth..................................

[@phillipbirt2344]

Sorry, forgot to mention the Wanchai Red Light district; the Mong Kok clothes warehouses that sell to Joe Public; the Mong Kok electrical gadget discount stores; the Metro system; the numerous quality hotels; the Hydrofoil to Shenzhen; the waterfront walkway; numerous temples...................

[@laistahir]

[@rainworksdesign8687]

Take this from someone who is a frequent visitor of Hong Kong all the way back from the 90s till now… This list kinda is a bit Meh.. In no particular order of things to do in my opinion: 1) visit the budha by taking the mtr to tung chung, take the cable car! Its an incredible experience. Then take a bus or taxi to Mui Wo island or Tai O to walk around and catch the ferry back to central for a great day out! 2) visit the Victoria Peak by the historical tram and take a walk through Hong Kong biological and zoological gardens beforehand or after. 3) take a stroll through from Wan Chai to Causeway Bay. Alot of food and shops all the way down, the unmissable voodoo / Rituals at Gooseneck Bridge in wanchai and then so much life, shops, food and market in Causeway Bay. Theres also the big department store SOGO, with an incredible foodmarket at the bottom floor and the Times Square. 4) yes they are tourist traps but dont forget to take a walk down Ladies Market and Temple Street market over in kowloon area. Great vibes and food all around! Also the West Dragon centre with the roller coaster inside ( no longer operational ) also has many levels of street food! 5) visit the Wong dai Sin temple too to get your fortune told! 6) visit some of the beaches like Repulse Bay and Big Wave Bay. 7) the Tram (ding ding ) is only $3HK no matter how long you ride for, so try and get on one side and ride as far as possible to enjoy the views! Then catch the mtr back for quicker travelling. 8) get an authentic breakfast or lunch at a cafe! There will be a set meal suited for you! 9) Make sure to try some fishballs, Wonttons, congee and other traditional street food from stalls! Also Soy Milk, fresh sugar cane juice and coconuts etc! 10) dont bother asking any locals where they’ll go as most will say travel in land to china these days 😂 they do have a point as most things are cheaper and fresher, so if you have time, see where the locals recommend to visit in mainland! 11) visit the site of where the walled city of kowloon used to be! Also where the old airport was! Lots of history there too!

Skip the Big Buddha. Add the flower market in Prince Edward. Add Sheung Wan. Add an outlying island - there are lots of them served by ferries from Central. Add the street markets. They’re all over the place in Kowloon, especially in Sham Shui Po. Add high tea at the Peninsula. Add a walk along Bowen Road. Add a trip to Stanley Market (south part of the island). A million things to do not mentioned in this video.

Is it really worth spending time in Tsim Sha Tsui? My impression is that it is a crowded shopping precinct full of the same global corporate stores that you see in every city in the world. I don't really want to go to HK just to see more Adidas, Nike, Apple, Rolex, McDonalds, Pizza Hut and YSL stores. For the same reason I would not recommend visiting Orchard Rd in Singapore. Or is there actually something special about Tsim Sha Tsui?

[@laistahir]

Hongkong is not a normal city now. There are at least 48 persons, including University Professors, Lawyers, Teachers, Reporters spending their 5th year in prison and without trial. China govt is going to keep them in life imprisonment. Even in Africa, country like Senegal, the old president would only keep his rivalry leader Bassirou Diomaye Faye in prison for just 1 year and then allow him to join the president election and let him be the next president after fair election. How can you pretend to know nothing about them and continue to play happily in Hongkong? That's what the China govt want you to do. It's just because their thoughts are against China. And there are hundreds of Hongkong ordinary people are put in jail for over 5 years. At least 2 persons in prison were forced to do TV show to say China govt is absolutely right. Please read "European Union message to China on human rights day" before going to China.
