Hong Kong (SAR) - Precautions

If you between April and November, allow for flight cancellations arising from typhoons and rain storms.  This means they should among other things bring more medicine, money and other necessities than what are required for the planned period of stay.

Jay-walking is an offence.  Observe traffic signals where they exist.  If caught by police for violations and found guilty, fines of several hundred Hong Kong dollars are imposed.

It is useful to bring along a mask and use it in crowded places, while on the streets and using public transport.

Go to Lockhardt St. for all the clubs and entertainment. but beware, there are over 30 "buy-me-drink" bars. most of them are neighbors. and they post up outside and literally grab you to try and pull you in. but all is not lost. call them prostitutes and they have to leave you alone. they also have great american food. and good European Pubs on that street.

Tsim Tsa Tsu is one of the main tourist spots, namely Nathan Road, be careful near the miradoor mansion and chungking mansion which are notorious danger sports in HK. keep all your belonging close, and just ignore the 'copy watch' guys.

If you get a chance to be in the world's biggest export city. You should go and check out the largest sitting Buddha in the world. Even though I am not a buddast it was very neat to see. Also check out Kaloon while you are there. They have great shopping just look out for the vendors that presure you to buy things on the street.
