You get to go around the loop three times with a few strangers in the cabin but it's still a nice view.

As a first timer for everything I've experienced on the first few days in Hong Kong riding a ferry to Hong Kong Island was nothing that I've ever experienced...hmmm well maybe visiting relative in Hiroshima at one of the islands but that was years ago so here I am with Nadine and the group to meet up with a friend from the group who has so amazingly taken us on a tour. Getting off the ferry and exiting the pier the first thing I saw is this massive Ferris wheel thing which is The Hong Kong Observations Wheel a stunning way to get a Birdseye view of the island and Victoria Harbor. Not sure of the details but what a stunning feature that I probably would've rode if given the chance...maybe on another trip perhaps! Thank you!

Garden Farm golf Centre is a rare gem in Hong Kong- it has masses of open land and the driving…read morerange is not a multiple level affair like it is downtown. this has been one of the biggest driving ranges in Hong Kong after the closure of the range in Kai Tak. Situated mid-way on Sai Sha road between Ma On Sham and Saikung, you will find yourself driving into a small village road at first and then turning into this great big opening as if you have just left Hong Kong. there is ample parking for everyone here (and admittedly difficult to get to by public transport). There are 100 bays for you to practice your swings, as well as a 19th hole, pitching/ bunker practice area as well as a putting green. The entire range is dedicated to perfecting your play on the green. The lane fees are reasonable at 100 HKD/ hr and as many balls as your back will allow you to take a swing at- other practice areas are separately priced and as of writing I have not tried them personally- but they do look kosher enough. There is a small café/ food kiosk on site where visitors usually grab a drink or a bite after an intense practice session. Kids love it here because there is a lot of grass land around where they can go nuts. The only complaint that I would have with the location is that changing facilities are rather primitive and the bays are getting a bit tired with use and I don't foresee any plans to upgrade them. Anyhow, for this sort of price and without the need for membership; I can live with it.

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 am a huge fan of Anita Mui and I finally got to pay her a visit. We visited on a weekday morning so there were very little people. It was perfect to capture pictures of the statues, handprints, and skyline. I noticed they added a Luckin Coffee stand along the Avenue of Stars. I did not get to try it this time around since they were not open when we were there but I would definitely keep that in mind for my next visit!

This combined with the exceptional (yet causal) and authentic hospitality at every service touchpoint made for a truly outstanding guest experience. * * * * * Strokes is a well-designed space; it's cheeky and comfortable, with a variety of seating areas and furniture types to ensure an effortless sense of comfort. The interior decor--a pastel colour palette with brass accents, velvet and wood-accent furniture, and retro-inspired accessories--establishes a relaxed atmosphere. The selection of games and entertainment are accessible and engaging to both children and adults, including 9/18 holes of miniature golf (ranging in difficulty), table tennis, and arcade-style video games. After devouring a collection of truly impressive and dynamic small plates and main dishes, it is clear why Chef Chris has such genuine enthusiasm and pride in his culinary work, particularly in the recently revamped Strokes menu. From the small plates menu, we thoroughly enjoyed the Fried Brussels Sprouts, as well as the Keto Moco--one divinely prepared fried egg on top of a (substituted) Beyond Meat patty, resting on a bed of cauliflower couscous and generously surrounded with savoury mousse. In a tasting of the large plates menu, the Pork Belly with Pandan Gremolata was expertly prepared and our absolute favourite--the exterior was golden and crisp, while the meat was tender, juicy, and flavourful with the perfect balance of fat, salt, and zest. A unique and refreshing bite was the Tangy Pomelo Salad--a seemingly effortless balance of fresh and crisp textures with sweet, sour, and salty flavours. We also demolished the Animal Burger (substituted a Beyond Meat patty) with Fries--a classic snack that was, like all of the previous dishes, perfectly prepared, and satisfying. The bar features the usual beer, wine, and liquor, however, the bartenders prepared several specialty cocktails that were delicious and thoughtfully crafted to complement the specific Malaysian-influenced flavours of the small and large plates. Our experience was flawless. We look forward to our next visit, largely due to the truly exceptional food, fun atmosphere, and unmatched hospitality.

It's also home to the Avenue of Stars and is a popular spot to watch the nightly 8:00 PM Symphony of Lights show. We decided to skip the Symphony of Lights because we had already watched it on YouTube and didn't think it was something we needed to see in person. Instead, we spent our time strolling along the waterfront, both during the day and at night, and we enjoyed it so much more. On our second day in Hong Kong, we walked along the waterfront before taking the Star Ferry to Wan Chai. The harbor views were beautiful during the day, but the nighttime scenery was even more spectacular. The city lights reflecting on the water created an unforgettable view, and I ended up taking tons of photos! We were also happy that our hotel was within walking distance, so we visited the waterfront several times during our trip. Whether you're taking a leisurely walk, enjoying the harbor views, or simply relaxing by the water, the Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront is definitely a must-see when visiting Hong Kong.
