Hong Kong | After a 30,000-step marathon, I captured these photos
| After a 30,000-step marathon, I captured these photos.
I spent 3 days photographing in Hong Kong, walking 30,000 steps each day, and basically covered all the hottest photo spots. Here's a guide to 50 photo locations:
Photo 1️⃣Bowen Road
Take the bus to Bowen Road Bus Terminus, then hike up on the left side of St. Joseph's College, and you'll reach the spot in 20 minutes.
Photo 2️⃣Kennedy Town
Exit from Kennedy Town MTR station exit C, turn left at the basketball court and keep walking uphill, and you'll get there, shot through the fence.
Photo 3️⃣Monster Building
Take the MTR to Quarry Bay Station to get there, the spot is crowded, and you may need to queue up. The airplane was photoshopped in, haha.
Photo 4️⃣Near the Monster Building
On the walk from Quarry Bay to the Monster Building, you'll pass this intersection, taken from the footbridge.
Photo 5️⃣Near the Monster Building
100 meters east of the Monster Building, taken from the safety island in the middle of the pedestrian crossing, be careful though, as trams pass by closely.
Photo 6️⃣Near the Monster Building
Also on the way from Quarry Bay MTR station to the Monster Building, but closer to Quarry Bay MTR station.
Photo 7️⃣Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station
Not much to say about this photo, you can take one at any MTR station.
Photo 8️⃣The University of Hong Kong
Exit from HKU MTR station exit C1, take the escalator all the way up, following the signs to the Centennial Campus.
Photo 9️⃣Arsenal Street & Hennessy Road intersection
Walk 500 meters from Admiralty MTR station exit F, the spot is on the footbridge.
Photo 🔟Same as above, also on this footbridge.
Photo 1️⃣1️⃣Same as above, also on this footbridge.
Photo 1️⃣2️⃣Mong Kok
Exit from Mong Kok MTR station exit A2, walk 300 meters to Mong Kok Road public toilets, the spot is right in front of the toilets.
Photo 1️⃣3️⃣Tung Ping Chau
Aerial shot of 'A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains'. Take a boat from Ma Liu Shui Pier for an hour and a half to get there, available only on Saturdays and Sundays, with boats at 9:00 going and 17:00 returning, round-trip ticket costs 100 yuan.
Finally, a tip for traveling in Hong Kong is to apply for two Hong Kong entry permits in advance, then travel back and forth to Shenzhen on the same day, staying near the Luohu Port, which operates from 6:30 to 24:00 daily. Just make sure to exit before 24:00, as both Shenzhen and Hong Kong are directly accessible by metro, making the crossing very smooth. Just do this for two consecutive days, and you can pretty much cover the whole central area of Hong Kong. Accommodation in Hong Kong is very, very expensive, so this can save a lot of money. Also, take the metro or bus whenever possible, and avoid taking taxis unless necessary. I took a taxi once for 4 kilometers and was charged 65 Hong Kong dollars, which left me stunned.

The Avenue of Stars has a very good handprint for the star. It was very interesting to draw it in the past. The opposite scenery is beautiful. Many people take cameras to take pictures. There are more foreigners. At the end, it is the Star Ferry. It costs 5 yuan to do the opposite. Feel Victoria.
Drinks are unlimited, the waiter is about 5, the passenger is less than 30, and the service is about 6, so the service is guaranteed.
Very good, worth experiencing
