3 Nights In Mongkok!

For those of you who guessed it's Hong Kong - well you are right! Well, it's been years since I first came here - and the images I remember are mainly from the HK movies...

And well, there is non better then the one called One Night In Mongkok... only difference is I stayed in Mongkok for 3 nights!

mongkok crowdThis is the view I got when came out of the Mongkok MTR station... just see the crowd! I booked this trip a while back, and at this point, I actually want a break.... but here I am in a crowded place.

Apart from the crowd, the impression I have about here - bustling & lots of shopping! Honestly, what a first impression of Hong Kong.... not the glitter & glam, but the other side of it.

mongkok bustleAnyway, friend suggested this area as it's 'in a good location'. Well, I don't doubt it is.

mongkok cool drinkAnd the first thing I had when I came here - well reminiscence of cold with cold! Yes, a cold fruit drink - something I love about Hong Kong... its fruit shakes!

The weather isn't winter and ain't zero degrees, but still chill enough haha!

Anyway, that was all before I entered to the hotel... what a shock for me!

*Btw, the hotel price is HKD280/ night. More on hotels in HK to come - cos I've yet to book my other nights! It's just a shock!

Also stay tuned for more things from HK! :)

  1. i stayed in mongkok too when i was holidaying in hk. only difference is, the price of d hostel is cheaper and more spacious than d one u went to. and i went to The Peak, where they hav the Madame Tussaud's wax musuem as well. but from ur previous pics, most of d wax figurines are almost similar to d hk ones... i saw Andy Lau and Einstein too! :D

  5. Agree with Robo. So fast after China, then KK, then Kuching, suddenly before I even have time to rest, you are in HK! You travel for a living is it? Don't tell me right after returning from HK, you take the next flight to India! LOL!

  7. Great stories you're telling thru your pictures. Thanks for sharing them, QC.

    I wonder whether they switched off those huge billboards during Earth Hour. They are very attractive and would surely cost a bunch where power is concerned.
