Hong Kong Travel (Super Comprehensive Guide)

1. If you want to eat at some specialty small shops, you still need to exchange cash. 2. There is a handling fee for the short-term return of the Octopus card. If you can accept it, it is recommended to apply for it, and the itinerary will be smoother. The subway involves ports, and the cross-sea part will indeed be more expensive. The subway price list will be put at the end of the picture for reference. Minibuses require Octopus cards, drive very fast, and you need to speak up when getting off. If you come to Hong Kong for the first time and your Cantonese is not good, it's best not to choose! 3. Buy a data package according to the operator before going through the customs. Don't believe the subway cost of a certain high map. 4. If you come to Hong Kong for the first time, it is recommended to go to Lantau Island, Victoria Peak, and Golden Bauhinia Square. If you have been here multiple times, you can choose Lamma Island, Shek O, Cheung Chau Island and other places. 5. Most of the tea restaurants are quite ordinary, and the prices are not so beautiful. There is no need to follow the internet celebrities. Personally, I prefer to choose Tim Ho Wan, beef brisket noodles, Genki, Sushi Express, Japanese barbecue shops in Hong Kong. Although there are chains in the mainland, the ones in Hong Kong are better! 6. The very popular Kennedy Town on the Internet is actually taking pictures on the wire mesh of the basketball court. It is a check-in point that tests the lens. It is indeed very photogenic. If you are close, you can come and see, if you are far away, there is no need to make a special trip. 7. Remember to bring a power bank when you come to Hong Kong 8. You still need a black code to go through customs, remember to prepare it in advance on the day of departure. 9. If you come to Hong Kong for the first time, it is recommended to put shopping aside, the current advantage is not great, and in this city with an average of 23,000 steps per day, it is indeed more physically exhausting. 10. I personally love Hong Kong Disneyland, squatting little foxes and sticking little foxes are more friendly, don't miss it if you like it. Ocean Park is also a good choice, if you like small animals, it is recommended to go, and the transportation is very convenient. 11. If the weather is good, Lantau Island and Victoria Peak are worth experiencing, but the queue is very tiring during holidays. You can adapt to the situation. When there are many people, you can choose to take a bus up and down the mountain, which is faster and the price is better.

Lantau Island

Hong Kong adventure? Absolutely! 🚠 I did a day trip out to Lantau Island—hit up the iconic Ngong Ping 360 cable car, squeezed in some hiking, and watched the sunset golden hour that totally lit up my feed. 🌅 Top Spots to Visit: - Ngong Ping 360: Start your day with this epic cable car ride from Tung Chung to the Ngong Ping Village—panoramic views of the island and South China Sea are next-level! - Lantau Island: The island’s hiking trails are open all day (Hong Kong Outlying Islands, Lantau Island)—do the wisdom trail loop or trek toward Sunset Peak for killer scenery. - Sunset Watch: Head up the hiking path about 1.5 hours before sunset for those golden hour pics (seriously, don’t forget your power bank for the phone-cam marathon). Personal tips: Book your Ngong Ping 360 tickets on trip.com ahead of time to skip the queues! If you want a more chill hike, bring light snacks and some extra water—Lantau’s breezy but the hills can be real. For the sunset, hang out at the higher lookouts, your Insta will thank you. Getting there & Around: Catch the MTR to Tung Chung, then walk to Ngong Ping 360 terminal. Cable car drops you straight at the village for easy hiking access. Local buses also cruise all over the island if you need a backup plan. What to Eat: Grab a tofu pudding in Ngong Ping Village—famous for a reason! Or refuel with noodles at a tiny shop after your hike. Extra tips: No visa needed for most travelers. Hong Kong dollar cash is easiest. Weather? Humidity’s real, so pack a light layer. #hkonbudget #LantauIsland #NgongPing360 #HongKongHikes #GoldenHour #tripdotcom
