Hong Kong | A Glimpse Of Asia's World City


After exploring Macau we headed to Macau-HK Ferry terminal and boarded a ferry bound to Hong Kong. An hour of sea travel we arrived at Hong Kong past 7 in the evening. We took the MTR to our hostel in Fortress Hill area. We stayed at Yes Inn.


We left our backpack and look for a nearby restaurant. We have a sumptous authentic Chinese food for dinner. After that we boarded a double decker bus to nowhere then took a tram back to our hostel.




On the second day of our Macau-Hong Kong trip we headed to Lantau Island. We took MTR to Ngong Ping 360. For the first time were able to experience a cable car ride. We explore the village and climb the stairs up to the big Buddha. Try some authentic Chinese street foods. 


We wander at the central business district on our 3rd day. We meet some OFW have chitchat and also eat lunch with them. 

Afterwards we took a tram to The Peak. It's so foggy that were not able to witness the 360° view of Hong Kong's skyscrapers. We take a coffee break from a Starbucks branch there.


From the Peak we hop a bus to the Central Ferry Pier then we took a ferry to cross Kowloon Peninsula. We walked the kilometer long Avenue of Stars then we checked the Mongkok street market. After buying some staff we head back to the Avenue of Stars to witness the spectacular symphony of Lights.


It was an awesome day exploring Hong Kong on our own. We get our backpack from the hostel and waited for a bus to the airport but it seems that we missed the lastrip instead we took a much pricey MTR to the airport. We sleep there and waited our flight back to Manila via Cebu Pacific Hong Kong- Clark route.
