My first ever trip to Hong Kong was a 10-hour overnight layover, during which I did my best to tour as much of the city as possible while fighting a terrible sleep and sunburn I had gotten from Thailand.
Fast forward 7 years later, and I was on my way back to Hong Kong, and this time for a full 2 weeks!

If you search for Hong Kong or Hong Kong Travel Guide on the internet, you will be bombarded with millions of pages with information and itineraries about things to do and see in Hong Kong.
Sorry to tell you that this one’s no different.
But not everything in Hong Kong is rosy and peachy. Like all cities in the world, there are things that are good and bad about Hong Kong, even some good things that have bad things about them. This city is no different than others in that perspective.
So here are some of the most popular attractions in Hong Kong, and the good and bad about them:
The Street Markets
The city of Hong Kong is filled with street markets, with the most populars being the Temple Street Night Market and the Fa Yuen Street Market, without mentioning the Flower Market and the Ladies Market. Hong Kong is really a place where you can buy cheap products (in price and quality) everywhere.
I found the above markets quite interesting, and even though the crowds inundated the streets on some given days, there was a very vibrant atmosphere all around, and this despite the constant feeling that vendors were trying to rip me off with some of their exuberant prices.
But all families have a black sheep, and this “family” of markets is no exception with the Stanley Market. Marketed as one of “the major tourist attractions in Hong Kong”, I found this market to be a total letdown. The products were nothing out of the ordinary and were quite expensive in some stalls. Its location also makes it somewhat of a pain to get to, even if the back of the market has some decent views to the seafront.

Tai O Fishing Village & the Tian Tan Buddha
I did these two on a day trip because they’re just so close to each other, and I’d say thank god they were! Because if I had to do them on two separate days, I would’ve sure been more than disappointed with one of them!
The good: The Tai O Fishing Village is everything you’d expect a small fishing village to be. Remote, small, cute, with loads of personality. I got there early in the morning before any of the tour groups had a chance to invade the village. I gotta say that walking through the backstreets of this quiet village and peeking over and inside people’s small houses were one of the best things I did in Hong Kong.
The bad: The Tian Tan Buddha; I should’ve seen this one coming. After all, how many giant Buddha statues out there are REEAAAALLLLY impressive. Even the one in Leshan (mainland China) didn’t quite impress me, and that one is the biggest Buddha statue in the world. So it was definitely not going to be “the largest seated Buddha statue in the world” who was going to wow-me….. maybe statues are just not for me.
The So-So: Ngong Ping Cable Car; from the location of the Tian Tan Buddha, I took the cable car back into the city. The car has some pretty impressive views of the mountain and beach areas, and the ride does last for quite a while. A definite “to-do” if you can stomach the over-priced fee of $145 HKD ($170 HKD if you want to glass-bottomed car).

Hong Kong Harbour (Tsim Sha Tsui)
Yesssss!!!! The views of the skyscrapers is I.N.C.R.E.D.I.B.L.E. from the HK Harbour in Tsim Sha Tsui! This is more even so at night when over a thousand lights from all the buildings are lit. The view is beautiful and somewhat appeasing, with ferry boats picking and dropping passengers from and to Hong Kong Island.
Every night the city puts on a “Light Show” where many of the buildings light up the sky with laser lights and what not…. at least this is what is advertised.
The truth is that the “Light Show” is very far from being impressive, or even worth freezing on a cold and windy night like the one I experienced. The lights from the buildings barely change, with only some of the buildings shooting some rather unimpressive green beams up in the sky…….. meh!
Macau
Many visitors choose to skip Macau and I honestly understand why.
Don’t get me wrong, Macau was a nice break from anything China or Hong Kong, and getting to see some colonial architecture in Asia was very refreshing, especially after being in China for the last 6 months. The areas around the Ruins of St-Paul and Santa Casa da Misericordia were my favourites to walk around as it reminded me of my trip to Europe from last year.
But besides this area which can be explored in under 2 or 3 hours, Macau doesn’t offer much to do……… unless you like gambling. Seriously, the number of casinos for such a small place is somewhat incredible, and the size of some are eye-soaring.
Besides that, Macau is not cheap at all. Just a return ticket from Hong Kong to Macau and back cost almost $400 HKD.
Like I said, Macau was worth a one-day visit, but I’ve seen it and unfortunately I do not see myself returning anytime soon.
Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery
It’s free, it’s different, it borderlines between the pretty and the weird (pretty weird?). The Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery is a fun place where to spend a good afternoon going up the stairs to the top of the monastery admiring, well, ten thousand statues of Buddhas, all different from each other.
Going down on the other side of the monastery I came across what seemed like a herd of monkeys sitting on the stairs, staring at passers-by and probably waiting for someone to drop their food.
The temple itself is not too well marked and is hard to find, so much that I ended up going up what seemed to be the entrance of the monastery, but ended up being a cemetery. It sucked as I only realized it once I was at the top of the hill without any other way to get to the monastery but to go down hill and go back up.
Victoria Peak
Yeah…. this one. Not much bad can be said about the hike up to Victoria Peak. It is great exercise and the reward of the views of the city from the top are just something else!
Can I bitch about the ice-cream prices at the top?
Have you been to Hong Kong? What was your favourite, and least favourite, thing about it?

22 ships
在灣仔的巷子之中可能很難找到這個米芝蓮星級名廚主理的西班牙tapa餐廳。這個名字（讀作22隻船）座落在船街，晚晚都大排長龍。在22 ships 的娛樂，廣闊的酒吧、奢華的 Sangria (西班牙傳統飲品 - 使用紅酒、水果切片、糖漿、烈酒與蘇打水調製的調酒) 和令人愉快的服務員，這一切都比長時間的等待值得。
