    The Peak & Nightlife

    March 8, 2023 in Hong Kong ⋅ 🌙 20 °C

    The Indian Gang: Shraddha, Aleena and I.
    After the ATM consuming Aleena's card for good, we gave up and headed to the airport metro station to catch a train that took us to the MTR central station. We then walked to The Peak tram with our necks all the while looking up at the marvellous skyscrapers.
    What's so special about this tram? It's been in operation since 1888! And it's the first funicular in Asia that also happens to go up at a slanting angle. It is so steep that the buildings you pass look like they are leaning a gradient of between 4 to 25.7 degrees! Going up & coming down, we loved this trip.
    We then walked to Lan Kwai Fong, which happens to be one of Hong Kong's most popular nightlife hot spots. The atmosphere was so lively and the food options were as diverse as the people there.

  • Tung Chung

    March 9, 2023 in Hong Kong ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    The original plan was to take the Tung Chung cable car all the up the mountain to visit Tian Tan Buddha. But I ended up having a scrumptious Japanese lunch at Genki Sushi instead, thanks to the cable car undergoing renovations. Can't complain though, Japanese sure knows how to make and serve food. In this case the food comes to you in mini bullet train models. So fun!Read more
