Hong Kong Park / Admiralty (Hong Kong) -- For the swarms of tourists that trundle down from…read moreVictoria Peak, I am amazed how just a few actually entered this bucolic park when they get off the tram. Jamie W and I were pretty much the only ones who walked into the park, which was totally fine by us. I was surprised to find out it was only built in 1991 because it felt well established as an urban oasis. Because it's on a hillside, the landscape is scrupulously terraced connected by leisurely paths festooned with flowers. The central pond was quite a draw for serious photographers with huge lotus plants, turtles sunning themselves on the rocks, and colorful schools of koi converging on the shoreline. Do yourself a favor and take twenty minutes to step away from the dim sum table and enjoy the nature. RELATED - Exploring Hong Kong?

I had resorted to the treadmill (and risked my life with it!) until a friend told me about Tamar Park. Yeah, I didn't know about it until recently, sorry! To get to Tamar Park from Admiralty, you need to get to Admiralty Center and cross the bridge until you get to the Government Offices. It's a huge, beautiful park overlooking Victoria Harbour. From the entrance of the park you can see a green large carpet. The design of the park is simple and elegant. The first time I went there was on a sunny Sunday and was delighted to have found such a place, a little away from mayhem in Central and exceptionally quiet (on a Sunday, yes!). There were groups of people here and there but I could easily find a free spot under a tree and enjoy my book. It is also a great place for those who work around Admiralty, like me. The downside is that there isn't much shelter and you may want to avoid it during the hot stuffy months. I came back at night a few weeks ago and the view is astonishing, much better than at daylight. It's probably one of my favorite spots to contemplate Hong Kong from. It's just a perfect mix of romanticism and peace. Now, the reason I wanted to check it out was to go sprinting, and you can definitely do that, both in the park, in the early morning when it is empty, or you can go down to the Central Promenade. You will find people jogging along quite often but I expected it to be more crowded. If you carry on this trail, you can reach Central Piers and Star Ferry. Whether you are runner or jogger or you simply haven't found you 'green piece' in the city, I would very much recommend you visit Tamar Park. Or take your other half there at night, he/she will fall in love with you if that hasn't happened yet!

This is the case for Wan Chai Park, less known and frequented than other bigger ones like Victoria Park, for example. It's a minute away from Wan Chai wet market yet it took me a while to discover it. But now that I know about it, it's become my fav green spot. It's got a little bit of everything: a pond, a big soccer pitch, an elderly training area (how cool is that?!), children's playground it's well sheltered and there is quite a lot of seating space (both benches and fences). On weekdays it's mainly old people and young guys who you can find there, especially the latter, playing soccer. On weekends it's full of kids. It's easy to find a good shadow that makes staying at the park pleasant...on a warm Sunday afternoon I went there to read trying to avoid other busy parks...and I found a quiet spot, actually close to the playground area. And the huge trees made for a great roof! Sometimes I go there without a book, just to chill out, and sit around the pond...so relaxing! Its locations is great for me but it's a little hidden: you can access both from Cross Lane or Queen's Road East (and climb down the stairs from there).

I love taking my son on walks around this park. If you have a stroller, or are in a wheelchair,…read morethis is a good park for you since there are ramps everywhere. Ramps are a rarity in Hong Kong! I'm thinking because this park is located near many hospitals and a rehab centre, they've decided that ramps are required. There are lots of activities for kids and adults to do. You'll find the playground near the Hospital Road entrance. There's a huge soccer field that takes up most of the park, along with some basketball courts which you'll find near the Eastern Street side. They have chess boards along the High Street side, along with lots of benches, both covered and uncovered. The bathrooms are wheelchair accessible, too. This park is on the border of all the cool and hip places in Sai Ying Pun, so if you need a time out this is a great place to do it.

This park is stroller and wheelchair friendly (which is not a given in Hong Kong, unfortunately.) It's also very big, so you might want to consider choosing what areas you want to visit before coming so you can manage your time effectively. My favourite areas are the mammal side (near the Caine Road/Caritas Community Centre entrance) and the beautiful fountain near the Albany Road/Upper Albert Road area. Wherever you end up, there's always some good landscaping with lots of flowers, which is great for photo ops.

Some birds looked healthy with beautiful, vibrant-colored feathers, yet others unfortunately appeared dull-colored and matted. The depressing aspect of this bird garden is the cramped, dirty conditions of the cages. Yuen Po Street Bird Garden isn't necessarily a must-visit in Hong Kong, but it's worth a short detour if you're on the Kowloon side and already visiting the adjacent Flower Market.
