[Hong Kong Attractions] Quarry Bay Five Mansions 🏢|Monster Building, the filming location for Transformers 4 and many Hong Kong films

[Features] 1. Apartment-style residences surrounded on three sides 2. A microcosm of Hong Kong 🎥 3. Five buildings merged into one [Recommendation Rating] 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 (4/5) [Real Review] If I were to capture the densely populated Hong Kong, I'd definitely choose this place. Here, towering skyscrapers form a three-sided enclosure, and every window represents a home, giving you a glimpse into the sheer density of the place. Besides checking out the filming location, the real takeaway from this place was the overwhelming feeling it evokes. It perfectly captures Hong Kong's compactness, its dense population, and its tenacious vitality, conveying a sense of time and change. [Transportation 🚘] 1. Take the tram to Mount Parker Road Station and walk for about 1 minute. 2. Take the MTR to Quarry Bay Station and walk for about 5 minutes. [Wen's Notes] This place is quite far from the city center. If you take the tram like I did, it will take longer. Those with a tight schedule should consider this. #AugustDestinations2025 #MonsterBuilding #MonsterBuilding #transformers #quarrybay #HongKong

Explore the Urban Jungle at Monster Building 🏙️🦖 Step into Hong Kong’s most iconic “living maze”—Monster Building. 📸 This residential complex is famed for its dramatic, stacked architecture, loved by photographers and film crews seeking gritty city vibes. The vibe here is ultra-local, with daily life playing out above and around you. Start your adventure right after hopping off the Quarry Bay MTR—Monster Building is just steps away! Wander through the open-air courtyard for the classic upward shot of towering flats (top insta-angle: stand in the center and look straight up for max impact). The best light hits around late afternoon, but early mornings offer fewer crowds for those pure, geometric shots. Must-do: Snap the classic “canyon” shot, then soak in the hum of local life as you grab a quick snack from the ground-floor shops. Resist the urge to shout or play music; you’re in a real residential zone. There’s zero signage, so use Google Maps to navigate and tread lightly—smile, greet residents with a nod, and give priority to locals. Venture quietly, avoid blocking walkways, and respect privacy (no directly aiming your camera at apartment windows). Practical tips: No entrance fee, open year-round, but public restrooms are limited—plan accordingly. Stay alert for moderate crowds, and keep noise to a minimum so residents remain happy to share this iconic spot. #HongKong #Cityscape #TravelTips #MonsterBuilding #UrbanExplorer
