Hong Kong - 2nd Day

Yes, thanks to Unifi I'm able to upload my photos damn fast...
93photos within 10minutes...
The 2nd day of our trip, we woke up pretty late...
Cause we were exhausted the previous day...
The morning of the Mong Kok area is not that bad...
Traffic is still acceptable not as imagined...

2 rows of mini buses waiting for passengers... only 1 row is moving on traffic...

The streets along Argyle Street

The main entrance of the hostel

My breakfast of the day... Pick and mix ingredients and type of noodles ourselves...
After having our breakfast, we took MTR from Mong Kok to Tung Chung station...
I don't know why I like to observe buildings
Our activities in Tung Chung is to visit Ngong Ping 360 and the big buddha on the hill top...
Besides, there's a very large outlet stores, a great place for shoppers...
So we had our time to have a ride of cable car to reach the hill top...
We Q-ed for 1.5hours there...
NEVER EVER go China or district of China during their holidays...
It is the worst traveling experience that you never want to gain...
Cable car ticket

2 type of cable car, normal cabin and crystal cabin which is glass floor that you can see through the bottom

Me in the cable car

The view along the way

Hong Kong International Airport

Little waterfall

The ancient designed village with modern restaurants

I'm a little monk ^.^

Wishing tree

On the way walking to the big buddha

Doesn't it looks like batu caves?


Approximately 28-30m in height that we assumed

The hillside view

My "lunch" Polo Bun

After finish visiting the hill, we took bus back to Tung Chung...
It is roughly about 35mins...
It's better than taking another ride of cable car....
The time of queue is terrifying...
So we reached Tung Chung again and so we went in to the Citygate  Outlet stores...


Just right in front after you came out from Tung Chung station
The main entrance
You can see the crowd, can't you?

Sales are everywhere in Citygate

We spent 30mins there and I had a pair of Nike sport shoes and my sis had a pair of Esprit Jeans...
The price is definitely very much cheaper than Malaysia...
You can get Nike or Adidas sport shoes less than RM100 (maybe due to current currency rate)
So it's a good time to shop in Hong Kong this period...
And because it's changing to Autumn...
So, sales are everywhere!
After we bought our things, we took MTR to Hong Kong station...

You'll see the building after you came out from underpass...

The electric tram

The we walked all the way uphill to The Peak tickets counter. Out of our expectation it was very very long Q too... We spent another 1.5hours queuing to take the tram

Very nice weather and building

The Peak Tram

I'm not exaggerating, it's really CROWDED

Finally it's our turn, but some incident happened... And spoilt our mood... It is not a good thing to share here but, it is such a shame of being a C...

But, once we had reached the hilltop, the scene will really let all your mind fly off...
It is a very worth trip to the hill...
It has very very beautiful night scenes...
I'm sorry to take all these lousy pictures...






After visiting The Peak, then we went to the madame-tussaud...
Many flashlights when you entered, it's like you're the stars on the red carpet

We cannot take the photo of Jackie Chan because the people in charge will help you take a photo of you and Jackie Chan, but you have to pay...
So we don't have any photo of him...
After visit the was museum, quickly we went to take tram back to the city...
Beautiful lighting
Again, we queued for half and hour...
Then we walked back to the Central station to take MTR back to Mong Kok...
On the way back we able to see the difference between day and night's scene...



HSBC tower
Actually, there's a Court beside this tower and it's very beautiful during the night...
But, there's a lot of pre-wedding shot and we do not want to went in and destroy the scene and their progress...
So we can only can capture the beautiful moments in our mind...

We had our dinner in 1 of the Japanese Restaurant in Women Street


Sorry if I made you hungry, but frankly speaking it's awesome! XD

Then after dinner we went for a stroll and not in the mood of shopping because we lack of time, and energy!
Cause we've been walking all day long...
Had an ice cream before returning to hostel
And that's it for my trip in Hong Kong...
It's very short and quite saddening because really not good timing to visit there because it's people everywhere and wasted a lot of time...
My conclusion is, I'll definitely go Hong Kong again!!
Although this is the 2nd time for my visit to Hong Kong...=)
Yes, Hong Kong is a really really nice place to visit... I ♥ HK
