As I booked the hotel room in Hong Kong I added the wish in the comments section, that I want a room on a very high floor. My wish got fulfilled, the room was on the 26th floor with a view around Causeway Bay with dozens of skyscrapers around me 🙂
Victoria Park impresses with views of the different skylines of Hong Kong. You get long walking paths and even professional jogging careers which are highly frequented. It’s always a bit relaxing to go into a park after many hours of the hectic city life. 🙂
Often the waiting time at the airports gets a bit boring. Sometimes you have the luck to see cool architecture and a view directly to the airplanes outside as happened here at the Hong Kong International Airport. Then it’s a good idea, if you have your photo equipment with you so that you can grab your photo bag, take out your camera and begin to shoot.
Hong Kong, one of the most fascinating cities of the world, offers you interesting expressions street for street. It’s a never ending flow of traffic, pedestrians, cars and shops.
For the competition “Which city has the coolest taxis?” Hong Kong will get a place at the top. They have an impressive chrome grille and the seats inside look like living room chairs. Sometimes you will see some curtains at the windows. For a passenger the ride is a real joy. 🙂
With limited space balconies are some kind of luxury for buildings in Hong Kong. You don’t see them very often, they make the constructions more expensive and time consuming. The same will be true with the prices of those apartments.
There is so much life in the streets of Hong Kong, often it seems that everyone is in a hurry. But that’s common for all of the big cities of the world, the cities which never sleep. Cool to participate and immerse in the city.
After a long bus tour through the streets of Hong Kong it got night already. On the way to the ferry I couldn’t resist to take a HDR photo series of the Peninsula, though I hadn’t my tripod with me. I like hotels in the night with bright lightning and cool architecture.
The outback of Hong Kong surprises with villages, nice beaches and green vegetation. I think it could get very crowded at the weekend if the residents of Hong Kong would decide to visit this area. I was there on a Monday, so no problem 🙂
Some streets in Hong Kong drive directly between buildings and often are built on pillars. Place is very limited so every niche is taken to build efficiently.
