Travel Tips for Hong Kong (SAR)

Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong (SAR)
Temple Street market is a great place for cheap food and a relaxed atmosphere amongst tacky yet beautiful souvenirs, head to Kowloon side and get off at Jordan Station, cant miss it! Bubba Gumps on Victoria Peak is good food and good views over HK and buy an Octopus card for travellign if you are there for more than a day or two, you can use it on ferries, buses and the MTR.

Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong (SAR)
When arriving at the Hong Kong Airport do not take a plain clothes (non certified) taxi. The normal taxis are much cheaper and do not try to rip you off. The plain clothes taxi guys are only trying to find gullible tourists to charge non-chines prices.

Lamma Island, Hong Kong (SAR)
If you find yourself in Hong Kong and are eager to take a ferry to an outlying island, a trek to Lamma Island is definitely worth the ferry fare. You can rent a bike from one of the local bike shops and explore the paths (bonus: no cars on the island!). Have a bite to eat at the Bookworm Cafe...reflect at one of the small temples...go to Power Station Beach for Saturday beach volley ball, or if you are lucky, a beach rave at night. Take in the atmosphere, not the view of the power station towers :)

Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong (SAR)
I still have a lot to explore on Hong Kong Island, but The Peak is a favorite. They have many restaurants, shopping (of course, in Hong Kong), trails, and the most popular reason to visit The Peak, the views. Also, there are a LOT of shops on Hong Kong Island. You can walk for days looking into large and small shops. Many high end brands have their own shops on this island.
