@@Hong Kong travel for the first time, read and refer to this 🇭🇰 When I traveled to Hong Kong in January this year, I distributed a guidebook as an event for first-time visitors. If you save it, it will be very useful information. 🇭🇰Hong Kong travel tips - No visa required upon entry (90-day visa-free entry) - If you are traveling to Macao: Macao's currency is Pataca MOP, Hong Kong's currency is Hong Kong Dollar HKD, but you can also use Hong Kong currency in Macao. (Most restaurants or stores give you change in Macao, so be sure to ask first.) - They don't give you change when you take a bus, so it's better to pay in cash. - Most taxis don't have card machines, so you should always have cash with you. - Most local restaurants or small, old restaurants mainly accept cash, so cash is a must!! 💳Octopus Card - An Octopus card is a must when traveling to Hong Kong (there are more places than you think that do not accept Visa or Mastercard). - It can be used as a card in transportation (buses, subways, trams, ferries), convenience stores, restaurants, etc. - You can purchase it right in front of the airport subway station, and you can only purchase it with cash. (There is a 50HKD deposit, so you need 200HKD to recharge the basic 150HKD.) - It is rechargeable, so you can recharge it with cash at 7-Eleven convenience stores or in subway stations. (The deposit can be refunded at the airport or subway station.) - You can recharge up to 1,000HKD, and you can recharge it in units of 50 or 100HKD. - If you only have 10HKD on your card but need to pay 20HKD, you can make a negative payment once if your balance is 1HKD or more (deducted from the deposit of 50HKD) 📍Best Place in Hong Kong (based on my first trip) - Hong Kong Disneyland hongkongdisneyland / Reserve your ticket in advance and register your visit on the Hong Kong Disneyland app - Yunnan Guilin Rice Noodles: Spicy Rice Noodles, Dim Sum Here: Dim Sum Restaurant - Avenue of Stars / Symphony of Lights light show runs from 8:00 PM to 8:30 PM every day - Mid-level Escalator / Transportation installed on a hill, the background of Chongqing Shanglin! - Soho Street / A bustling street lined with bars, restaurants, shops, and art galleries, https://maps.app.goo.gl/oqQ4NgUagpbrY5iGA Mural Street Famous - Singheung Yuen / Delicious sweet potato crispy buns, tomato ramen - Ik Cheong Building / Old apartment building with the background of Transformer 4, Monster Building You can find it here on Google. - Choi Hong Apartment / Inside the apartment complex, if you go up to the 3rd floor of the parking lot in the middle, there is a basketball court.

The way there is also very pretty, so I definitely recommend going:) - Big Bus Night Tour / Kowloon side tour, but I heard the Hong Kong Island tour is also good. You can make same-day reservations at the Big Bus departure point, but it often sells out on the day, so it's better to go the day before and make a ticket in advance for the next day. (You can also make reservations on the Big Bus website) - Cham Chai Kee / Central side, Wonton Noodles Michelin Guide - Log Ye Dim Sum 樂意點心, Dim Dim Sum / Dim Sum Restaurant For those who are visiting Hong Kong for the first time, I think it would be good to save it and look at it❤️ #HongKong #HongKongTravel #HongKongRestaurants #HongKongAttractions #HongKongDisney #HongKongNightView #HongKongPlacesToVisit

#HongKongTravel Monster Building～"Historical monster located on King's Road" Hong Kong is known as the "concrete jungle" and its densely packed downtown landscape is world-famous, attracting many Hollywood movies to be filmed here. If you want to experience the prosperity of the Glass City, you can visit Central, where skyscrapers are everywhere. In recent years, Quarry Bay has become a popular filming location for "Transformers". The building, which consists of five old buildings connected together, looks like a walled city and is nicknamed the "Monster Building". 👾Building Introduction: It is composed of five old buildings connected in an E-shape, namely, Seaview Building, Fook Cheong Building, Hoi Shan Building, Yick Cheong Building and Yick Fat Building. Because of its huge appearance, it looks like a monster located on King's Road, so it is called "Monster Building" by the neighbors.

The building was built in the 1960s. At that time, buildings were popular for comprehensive use, not only residential but also shops. When you step into this "panopticon"-like building complex, there will be hoarse news reports on the side, accompanied by the "seafood" and "cold tea" that come to your nose, which is exactly the symbol of the uniqueness of old Hong Kong! ! 🚴Transportation: Take the MTR "Quarry Bay" Exit A, walk along King's Road towards Taikoo, pass the intersection of Mount Parker, and you will reach the entrance of Hoi Shan and Seaview Mansion. 📍Address: 1010-1044 Emperor Building, Quarry Bay, Eastern District, Hong Kong 💞Recommended reasons: 1. It is a popular Instagram check-in spot. If you are a Transformers fan, I suggest you come and make a pilgrimage. 2. Very suitable for photographers or Internet celebrities to take pictures 📷, the pictures are very unique~ 3. It is a place that retains the characteristics and architecture of "Old Hong Kong". If you are tired of the bright lights and revelry in the downtown area, come here to experience the fashion and prosperity of the old times, which is also a unique flavor! ! #100 Ways to Travel #HongkongTravel #MonsterBuilding #Transformers #OldHongKongFeelings #Meili Herbal Tea

Many years ago, I saw many photographers on the Internet taking photos of this most famous building in Hong Kong, but I never had the chance to take a photo. I remember that I came to Hong Kong no more than five times in total. Most of them were because I took the SAT when I was in high school. Besides, I didn’t know how to take pictures at that time🎞️ Fortunately, I finally waited for the National Day holiday and went to Monster Mansion with my girlfriend. One thing to say, this kind of dense building complex is very special. Different from the steel jungle in New York, these old residential buildings in 🇭🇰 have more fireworks. Although I can’t understand what it’s like to live here, judging from the appearance of these houses, they are absolutely unique and worthy of being the place where cyberpunk originated.

Hong Kong is really a very interesting city and a paradise for photography lovers. There is really so much to take pictures of! This time I went to check in and share the popular shooting location [Monster Mansion in Quarry Bay] that has been popular among young people. There is really no need to introduce too much about this point. It is so popular. It is the location where Transformers 4 was filmed and the residential density is shocking. If I had not taken pictures here, I would be embarrassed to say that I have been to Hong Kong. Tips for taking pictures directly (you can directly copy the homework): Put your phone directly against the ground, use a wide angle to shoot the person's back, the composition is symmetrical, the person should look up to the sky, open his hands, the wide-angle lens will lengthen the legs, and later in the air PGet on the plane✈️, the atmosphere is full. There is a staircase at the entrance. Sitting on the first section of the staircase, I put my phone down and took pictures from bottom to top, emphasizing the depth of the building. Put your phone on the steps of the stairs and take continuous shots. As the person walks down, his front feet are as close to the camera as possible, giving him the feeling of seeing a giant. The conventional lens is to only shoot the monster building, with a symmetrical composition and the only subject. ⭐️Tips: 1️⃣ It is strongly recommended to take the MTR "Island Line" to [Quarry Bay] station and exit from Exit A. Walk 300 meters along the roadside towards Monster Building. You will see an overpass with the classic building of Monster Building behind it. At this location You can wait for the red Ding Ding car, which is super nice to take pictures with. 2️⃣ Navigate to [Monster Building], walk along the street and see the entrance of the building marked "Ocean View Building". Go straight in and go up a flight of stairs to an atrium. Many people are taking pictures, but this is a fake Monster Building. , go straight forward. After going down the stairs, turn left and walk forward for 50 meters. You will see another staircase. Go up again and you will find the real monster building. Don’t make a mistake‼ ️ 3️⃣ Try to get to this seat as early as possible. I arrived at noon, and there were quite a lot of people coming to check in, so I had to queue up to take pictures. 4️⃣Don’t be in a hurry to return after taking this photo. Walk along the road to the [North Point] MTR station. You will pass "Healthy East Street" on the way. Go to the end of the street and go up a staircase. It is a place that can rival Kennedy Town. Check out the seats at the check-in spots of Kanhai Internet celebrities. If you don’t have time to go to Kennedy Town, don’t miss this opportunity‼ ️ 5️⃣The [Chun Yeung Street] near North Point MTR Station is also worth a visit. It is a famous traditional market with the Ding Ding Car passing through. Residents buying vegetables are picturesque with the Ding Ding Car, and it is full of fireworks. 6️⃣There are many pedestrian bridges crossing the streets on King's Road. Remember to check in and take photos. Take pictures of streets, ding-ding cars and pedestrians crossing the road from a high place. It is very Hong Kong style. # engaged in is art #Where to go on the weekend #Hong Kong photo check-in

This is the filming location for the movie "Transformers 4"! It is also the place in Hong Kong that most resembles the Kowloon Walled City! Hi ~ This is Hong Kong, North Point, Quarry Bay, it is really a guide from somewhere ~ Originally, my husband and I came here just to find an old store. After exiting the subway station, we saw a very special building in the distance. From the map, it looks like it is composed of five buildings and is shaped like an "E". We talked about it and took photos of it. Unexpectedly, when we walked in, it looked very familiar, and we found out that it was the famous Monster Mansion in Hong Kong. Many movies including Transformers were filmed here. It was built in the 1960s and has a population of more than 10,000. It has a dense layout, a unique appearance, and extremely small distances between buildings. When I stood on the patio in the middle of the building and looked up at the sky, the feeling was so shocking! Some people say it looks like a pigeon cage, but for some people, the Monster Building is not just a complex of buildings, but also contains the atmosphere of old Hong Kong and unique urban cultural memories. If you want to take photos, please check the transportation: MTR Quarry Bay Station Exit A/Taikoo Station Exit B, navigate to "Monster Building" or "Yick Cheong Building" and walk for 5 minutes. #ArchitecturePhotography #Cityscape #Hong KongArchitecture This is the filming location for the movie "Transformers 4"!

This time I went on an overseas trip to #HongKong When you say Hong Kong, #Yik Cheong Building and #monsterbuilding are famous. The friend I met this time lives in Yik Cheong Building So I went there with my friend's guidance^^ My friend said that most of the people downstairs were Koreans, So I went to Yik Cheong Building, which is really popular with Korean tourists, and the cafes inside #k11musea and #Tsim Sha Tsui Star Street, etc. I went to all the popular places. I didn't expect much from #k11musea But it's a department store shopping mall And it's also like an exhibition hall with artworks on display So I think I had a great time looking around without realizing how much time had passed^^

#Check-in The Monster Building in Quarry Bay, where the Transformers movies were filmed, is a popular photo spot known for its unique densely packed architectural style and brightly coloured windows. Firstly, the best time to shoot is in the morning or evening, when the natural light is softer and can add warm tones to your photos. The blue sky and the buildings have a good color contrast. Secondly, choose different angles to shoot, such as from the atrium between buildings, so that you can capture the oppressive feeling of the building. If you want to take a larger picture of the message, you can go across the street and take a picture of the entire outer wall. Using a wide-angle lens can better show the magnificence of the entire building. You often have to queue up to take photos at this place, and there are many residents coming in and out. Please wait patiently. The traffic on the road is very busy, so please be careful and pay attention to safety. #globaltravel #hk places to visit #hk island #hk style

During our Hong Kong trip, we explored the iconic Monster Building/Mansion, known for being a filming location for Transformers, which made it a popular attraction for tourists. Just a brief 10-minute walk from Quarry Bay MTR station, its accessibility makes it a must-visit spot. Despite the evening rain, we were undeterred in capturing memorable photos for social media. While locals cast curious glances our way, I reassured my partner that their opinions didn’t matter in a place where we were unknown. We embraced the unique experience and created lasting memories. Surprisingly, we found ourselves as the only tourists braving the rain for photos until another group arrived to join us in capturing the picturesque spot. I’m so glad we insisted on visiting this place despite the rain. Otherwise, we might have missed the opportunity to explore it by using the weather as an excuse. It rained every day when we were there btw! #hongkongtravelguide #hongkong #tripmoments #tripblazer
