There is charging/wifi station is in the center, which can come in clutch when your phone is low. I liked coming into entrance K because of the gacho store off to the right. There is a good selection of quick service food spots and various stores as well. MTR transport is easy to figure out and was my preferred method in HK. Although this station is big, the directions are clear and in english, making it hard to get lost.

This is a pretty big station, though it actually joins up with Tsim Tsa Tsui station (as well as…read morethe ubiquitous shopping malls). In fact, the underground sections are so extensive that you literally need a map to work out where you are. Fortunately, the exits are all marked, though not necessarily clearly (especially when you aren't familiar with the streets). Oh, a cool thing about the metro is that there are signs outside that will point you in the direction of the nearest metro entrance.

Oh, and there are some good bars around here as well, which is surprising for a place that isn't actually a touristy area.

REVIEWER # 2 For all…read morethe transportation's and subways in the bay area I would like to introduce you to Hong Kong MTR! Definitely take the time to take notes because the U.S.A can definitely learn something from this amazing, convenient and efficient transportation system in Hong Kong! Prine Edward seems to be the transfer station for Kwun Tong Line but also the station to get off if you are interested in doing some market shopping! Flower Market, Bird Market, Meat Market and Ladies market is located on this line! Very convenient and a short walking distance from each other! Make sure to exit B. This area also has some great food joints located nearby. Its also walking distance from the Mong Kok station as well! My first time visiting Hong Kong and I was able to go everywhere I needed by using the MTR. Never did I have to use a Taxi because the trains come every 2-3 mins and it opens super early and closes super late! Trains here are very convenient and easy to navigate, please note that during rush hours it does get crowded and people are crazy! Whoo. They push, tug and shove you to make sure they can get into the train. The signs and maps are all in English as well as Cantonese so it's really easy to get around on your own. The MTR seems to go all over the Hong Kong Island. There does seem to be a lot of walking when changing line so be prepared to walk. They are NOT lying when they say that Hong Kong has a huge population! There are people everywhere at ALL times of the day and night. So be prepared for the crowds and you may miss a train or two because of it being over crowded. Don't worry, they come very frequently! OCTOTPUS CARD: This was the BEST thing Hong Kong could have ever thought about! Get an Octopus Card as soon as you arrive and you will good after that! What is an Octopus Card you may ask? It's a card that you can store money and use on buses, trains and in convenient stores such as 7-Eleven! This saves you so much time during the boarding time. You purchase one during your stay in Hong Kong and before you depart you turn it back in and get your refunds of your deposit back when you return the card. (Not a bad deal!) TIPS FOR FIRST TIME RIDERS: When going up the escalator, walk on the left and stand on the right. This will help risk people motioning for you to move out the way and the risk of the displeasure of everyone behind you! I am happy to say that I have witnessed the most AMAZING transportation in the world! Hong Kong indeed has the BEST transportation! I definitely recommend for anyone coming here to take this rather than a Taxi! REVIEW 224/196

Yep, once again, this is pretty much the same as most of the other stations, especially the ones…read morewhich only serve a single line. The thing is that while there are kiosks down here (as there are with pretty much all of the stations) they aren't as extensive as some of the larger stations, and after a while you pretty much become familiar with the shops therein. One annoying thing is that the Octopus card only takes cash, and you can only charge it up in sets of fifty (which makes it annoying because my cousin told me that you used to be able to throw all of your small change onto it).

While it…read moreis true, it is also pretty expensive (around $120 HK, which comes to about $25 Aus), though I have to admit that there are some airport trains that are much more expensive (looking at you Heathrow Express). The station pretty much connects directly to the airport, so you walk straight out onto the platform heading into the city after leaving arrivals, and coming from the city it drops you off directly at departures. It's fast as well (though arriving last thing at night can be tricky, especially since I ended up running to catch the final train along the Island Line).

However, there are a number of lines that you can access, and of course, as is typical with a lot of these stations, you also find yourself in the middle of a shopping centre, especially after you leave the ticket barriers.

I found this station to be very convenient. I would take a bus from Ma On Shan to Sha Tin so I could travel into the city. The train station entrance is close to the bus terminal so I could easily catch the next bus back to home base. The station is also located next to two malls, Citylink Plaza and New Town Plaza. Very convenient if you are trying to get a number of shopping errands done at once. As for the station itself, I didn't find it too hectic. It is far enough out of the city that it does not get too unruly. Though when you exit at this station, it can get crowded with people taking the same escalator up. If you can handle some walking, there is a staircase further down the platform that is hardly used. As a feeder station to other parts of the New Territories, I commend the great public planning done. Particularly how short the walking distance from Sha Tin Station to the malls and the bus terminal was.

The octopus card at $150 HK dollars = $20 USD is inexpensive and can be used in certain stores in the subway to purchase merchandise. Can't go wrong with that. HK is relatively clean compared to New York City and other major cities. This makes it palatable to use this mode of transportation. The maps are clearly laid out to make it easy to navigate where you need to go. Finally, HK is a safe city again unlike other major cities which makes this an ideal way to travel even if you are solo.
