• Peak Circle Walk

    November 9 in Hong Kong 🌬 24 °C

    I stayed up there for quite a while before making my way back down. I took photos of the Sky View from below and now I understand why it's known locally as the wok (because it's shaped like one!).

    I then found the start of the Peak Circle Walk. This is a three kilometre walk that takes you around the peak at a slightly lower level than the shopping centre. It's mainly flat. And as you set off along it, it's not long before you're in amongst the trees. You've left all that noise and hassle behind. It was a joy, actually. It was a joy to hear the birds singing, to see beautiful big butterflies. Obviously I didn't capture any photos. But it was good to be in nature amongst the trees, especially the banyan trees.

    As you walk on, the path obviously takes you back to the city side of the peak. The views from there are possibly even better than from the Sky View. You're actually closer to the buildings below you.
