Hong Kong Citywalk Guide! The routes in Hong Kong Island East have been asked a lot

I love to go shopping in Hong Kong. This time I summarized the Citywalk route in Hong Kong's Eastern District, where you can easily see the mountains and the sea, the fireworks of the Monster Building, and a corner of green space in the city...

These check-in points are very close. You can check in all of them by leisurely walking for half a day after leaving the subway station. See the last picture for the map. My route:
1⃣ Monster Building
This is the filming location of Transformers. The high-density residential area is very magical. Take Exit B of Taikoo MTR Station. After exiting the station, walk west along Kornhill Road for a few dozen meters and find Yichang Building.
2⃣ Taikoo Place
A few minutes walk along Westlands Road will lead you to Taikoo Place. I was planning to just sit in a coffee shop, but after a walk I discovered that the architecture here is very distinctive. In the commercial office building, a green garden space has been built. I saw that more than 220 different plants have been planted here, including local species in Hong Kong to support urban biodiversity. Some of them can be scanned to view the scientific introduction of the plants. It feels like visiting an office building version of a botanical garden, which is rare in Hong Kong where every inch of land is valuable. I really like the bridges between each building, which are not only beautiful but also facilitate walking to a great extent. In addition, the humanistic design can be seen everywhere, such as the floor air conditioner and the handrails with soft lines. It is really full of details (Quarry Bay MTR Station Exit A)
2⃣Healthy Street East, North Point
Walk south along Jiankang Street East. At the end of the road, you will see two flights of stairs. You can stand on the stairs to take pictures of the sea view. The sea view here is really not inferior to Kennedy Town.
3⃣Street scene
When walking along the road, you can see the Shin Kong Cinema, the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and various overpasses, which are great for taking photos.
