I Miss Hong Kong...

Almost getting to 2 months since back from Hong Kong... time flies. I wish to have the chance to make my second visit soon...Would suggest a 10 days trip if you are there the first time, my 6 days trip simply not enough.

My hubby and I did alot of studies of this great city before getting there. I did my research on when and where to go...while hubby focused more on where to eat.

As promised, here are the links which we find very useful during our planning...

Official Website - Hong Kong Tourism Board http://www.discoverhongkong.com.hk/eng/index.jsp
This websites has TONNES of information which are very useful for visitors. Must spend time to view each and every contents offered in this website. From weather to hotels, itenary planner, location maps, just name it, they have it.
For these informations, you may also check out : http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/539412

Great advise on hotels
http://www.tripadvisor.com/
If you need tips about your selection of hotels, check this out. Real people, real review, real PHOTOs...not like those professional photos on the official hotel website.

Great advise on places to eat in Hong Kong, and also MACAU included.
http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/index.htm - MUST SEE!
One thing about this web is that its only in Chinese version...I can't read chinese, so hubby did all his study on this web. From selection of food range, members rates the restaurants thus the ranking. Restaurant name, address, photos and maps are provided...some even with opening hours.

MTR - easy travel in Hong Kong.
http://www.mtr.com.hk/
Do get their octopus card there. So convinient!

Some Major Attractions...

Hong Kong Disneyland :http://park.hongkongdisneyland.com/

The Peak Hong Kong : http://www.thepeak.com.hk/full/en/index.php

Lantau Island : http://www.np360.com.hk/

Also, when you reached Hong Kong airport, they have this nicely setup tourist info counter, with loads of info for u to take! Something you won't and should not MISS!
