THE 18 BEST THINGS TO DO IN HONG KONG | Weekly 13

THE 18 BEST THINGS TO DO IN HONG KONG | Weekly 13
I've lived here 5.5 years (& My husband is born and raised here) so I'm finally putting together a list of our top things to do, both touristy and things we just personally love. Hong Kong is a great place to travel to on any budget! You can eat, shop & do things in a very budget friendly way as many activities are free and there's a lot of inexpensive markets. There's also a lot of luxury shops, restaurants and hotels if you want to splurge! I had a lot of fun this week showing my friends from Canada (& you!) around!!

She was right! "Son first" ❤

[@ItzSophYT]

It's good to see you doing well and enjoying yourself again ❤

Are we not gonna talk about the handsome guy in the pink suit delivering that PR package 👀🔥

[@angeldelova3345]

PettankoXO lmao I thought the same thing when i saw her ig story 😂❤️

[@dawnforlife]

HAHAHA THE FOUNTAIN PART! Pretty sure Alyssa's an Oscar award winner! LMAO! Ahh...Ritz Carlton 103 is really beautiful but for a nice view, I'd also recommend Nobu restaurant and Nan Lian Garden has a super lovely vegetarian restaurant as well =) These gives me bitter sweet memories for my five years there!

[@michelles.1422]

I second everything she says 👆

[@ljtb]

My friend recently moved to HK, your videos really inspire me to go visit😍

[@olinda013]

Hi! I´m travelling there in a couple months. Do you have any suggestion on where to shop? I feel like it´s either very expensive or fake. I didn´t see a place in between

[@jaschainator504]

So cool! Reminds me of the book with recommendations you gave to Gioia and me! It was so cool experiencing all these things 🖤

[@sheikahchic]

This is a really good guide of things to do and experience, for your first time in Hong Kong, I think! I'll definitely refer back to this video when I eventually get out to Hong Kong! Thanks for sharing all of this with us, Taylor! 💗

[@_NikiKlein]

Love this video!!! Also Tay, since you mentioned Foodie Friday, any chances on a season 2? omg maybe a 2nd one but in Canada when you there

[@moz2479]

I didn't realise how astounding she looked with darker hair. It makes her features and make-up stand out even more and just heightens her beauty. And hoop earrings are definitely made for Taylor; like wow, just wow.

[@Sky1]

Taylor was on CBS this morning show with her nose hair extensions

[@ckey1764]

When I first started following you I was more interested in Japan, but since you moved to HK and I learnt more about it, I became really interested and I’m already planning on adding it to my next Asia adventure! Thanks for sharing! So nice to see you enjoying with your bestie!!! ♥️👍

[@pollypocket2282]

What a fantastic week. So glad you guys got to catch up... thank you for sharing your week and for including us in your adventures. Your videos of Japan and Hong King have provided me list of wonderful places to visit and food to eat!

[@Mariahj.]

Love love love these type of videos Taylor.. ❤️ you always look like you’re having such a good time, and so informative. ☺️

[@alexandragolikov9741]

I visited HK in January and saw almost all of those touristy spots, HK is amazing even if you think you won't like a big city you have to go there its just amazing! Thanks Taylor for the great video now ill know where to go when i visit again 😊

[@LMia0881]

I am glad your doing more hong kong local videos. I love your japan local videos. Keep going. Thank you.

[@billosterjr.3848]

Glad to see you out having fun with friends. Thank you for getting me out of the house taking me sightseeing around town. All of it was lovely and interesting.

[@vivianc1157]

This was so great! Thank you so much for showing HK! I was born there but moved at a super young age to Canada so I haven't been to half of the places you went to! Hope it was the "break" you needed and hope you're feeling better!

[@elisanium]

Cute couples! Looks like you had a blast! Thanks for sharing everything with us ❤️

[@GayNightMare]

I remember seeing pieces of this on you and elbow-Sans Instagram stories. I absolutely love that dress on you. And darker hair suits you. I’m glad we got to see more of this day. ❤️ much love to you guys!

[@peterchan4386]

Thanks for this video Taylor, I'm born in HK but live in the UK for over 40 years, I visit HK regularly, so some of these tips will come in handy for my next visit next month, will probably avoid the mass touristy places, but the food places will get a check out, some I've visited before!

[@Samilovescandy]

Oh wow this is quite an education video, I love it. When you went to that cat alley it looks little like an Anime, Cardcaptor the movie where Sakura (main charater) wins a trip to Hong Kong. It reminded me of that.

[@ThatsReallyJen]

im going to hk this weekend and totally going to try these places out! Thanks! Love the videos by the way, you're an inspiration! :D

[@RandomDara]

You inspire me so much me and my friend are going there next year. Love your vids and keep doing what your doing !

[@NewCreation1681]

All the places you took us were incredibly beautiful 😍😍 thank you Taylor! ✌🏻💕

[@itsBananaaaaaa]

Watching this in 2022 and love how the fortune teller here says that Taylor will have a son first which she did! Yay 😍

[@ABCDEFG-um5td]

Good to see you posting ❤️

[@rhapsodyandtea5249]

What a beautiful video. I think the editing and the music was really great and you must have put a lot of effort into it. Loved to see you guys explore Hong Kong together and see more of it through your videos. I hope I can travel there one day!!

[@colinjohn6062]

I'm going to Hong Kong at the end of July to visit some friends! Thanks for this video and tips :) I love watching you and Alyssa hangout in vlogs!

I really needed this for my trip to Hong Kong in September, thank you Taylor!!! ♥️

You look stunning and so happy ❤ this vlog was really interesting and fun to watch ❤

[@rocarolinaelric94]

This vlog with all the timelapses and you being with friends, it remind me a lot of the vlogs you did in Japan! It felt cozy! I never really had a big interest in China, but seeing this video it seems like a wonderful place to visit! I'll add it to my list

[@claireavent70]

You both look so beautiful in your dresses! 💗

[@birb4476]

Looked like the perfect way to recover! I'm glad to see that you had such a good time!

Taylor, I never comment on videos but I feel like I need to on this one...I love your videos so much, I watch every single one. Even watched this entire video even though I don’t plan on being in Hong Kong any time soon, I loved it. You just have such a calming and kind personality, I feel at peace like I’m with friends when I watch you. Thank you for all the effort you put into these videos and I hope you’re doing well💕

LOVE the wavy/curly texture you had your hair styled in this video on you

[@MillennialTravelConfessions]

Great video! Will be handy for when we visit Hong Kong 😁

U should make this kind of video a series, like 'things to do in hongkong'. It's interesting!

Thanks for sharing, it makes me want to visit my friend lives in HK.

Omg your makeover thought out this video are gorgeous

[@gracet2063]

Wow seems like it was a packed week! XD Looked very fun though :D

[@CaliLewisR]

I loved this episode!

[@motherofbiscuit]

I think you nailed all the ‘must see’ - maybe you could have taken your friends to Cheng Chau Island or one of the other islands as they have a very unique character. A lot of people I know want to go to the floating restaurant Jumbo, I went there for lunar New Year’s meal with family and it was pretty good, tho definitely touristy. I forgot to mention wong tai sin temple (much more interesting to me than man no, although it’s just my opinion) and nan lian garden, I still haven’t been there myself but I heard it’s beautiful 😍 it’s a great video anyway ❤️

[@Taylor_R]

Yes we wanted to go to Jumbo but it’s under renovation now 😣😣 next time!

[@louloubear444]

Are you going to do any more food exploration videos? Also, loved seeing more of Hong Kong! Thank you for uploading great content :)

[@rosierivasleal]

I can definitely tell why Alyssa is your best friend! Good choice, ladies! 💗
