The Hong Kong Spirit at the Lion Rock

How do you enjoy your #HongKong trip?
Eat, drink, shop, shop
Hong Kong is fast-paced, crowded, and expensive.
Just hearing the traffic lights 🚦 warning lights
makes it hard not to walk faster.
Next time
You can choose a different route.
"Going up the mountain" is a very pleasant way to travel.
Since it was my first time,
I chose a popular route.
And I could really appreciate Hong Kong.
"Lion Rock" O-shaped loop 🚃🚃
First, I had to find a way to get to the trailhead.
From Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station 🚉, transfer to Yau Ma Tei and then to Lok Fu Station.
From Lok Fu Station Exit A, take the 53M minibus.
(I'm dizzy from all the walking. 😵💫) Lion Rock is a very friendly mountain.
I met many locals and Europeans here.
The road signs are very clear.
Even though I forgot to download the Hong Kong offline map,
I didn't have any safety concerns.
The signal here is very strong.
So when I was unsure about the route,
I could just look at Google Maps 🤭.
Although the weather wasn't great on our visit,
it was still a wonderful experience. ❤️
By the way!
This is also one of the top night views recommended by many Hong Kongers!
Next time you're in Hong Kong, make sure you plan a trip here! ☺️
