Im in Hong Kong ... and its FUCKING AWESOME!!!!
 

Just arrived and its night so its super awesome!!

Wow :pimp:pimp

Have fun :)

Any pictures?

Where are you staying? Were you able to get those free DIY walking tour brochures in the airport. They're really the best way for you to go around the city. The Night Market is nice these days. Come morning, go to the museum near the sea. It is very nice and quiet there.

Oh, when an Indian guy approaches you with this religious talk, don't bother talking to him. The morons will hustle you for US Dollars. They don't accept local currency. When you see them coming, just avert your eyes and stay the hell away. THey can be fucking persistent.

Hong Kong looks awesome in pictures, I'd love to visit it someday. Post some pics when you can! :thumbsup

oh man just checked some pictures and i am amazed i didnt know about that city of the future ... excelent! :thumbsup but nothing for me, i will be lost there like teencat on gfy :) enjoy your visit! :thumbsup

HK is still on my to do list... would be so awesome.

gonna eat some dog and share the pics with us!

We need some pics to match.

Shoot some pics and post them!!!

cool beans...its on my travel list as well

Word, was there a few weeks back. Not as seedy as it used to be sadly. Mong Kok is becoming to cleancut...

One of my favorite cities !

Been there a few times.

pics or it didn't happen :)

what r u doing online on your first time/night in hong kong?

Hong Kong is fun .. a bit expensive and too crowded though , , other than that great place to explore for a couple of days , oh and of course the heat and pollution are just horrible this time of the year

nice, have a great time there! Never been in HK, so.. pix are appreciated :)

I must visit it one day! :thumbsup

yeah, HK is great...

:thumbsup:thumbsup
yeah avoid them, they are just thieves dressed as some kind of monks...
and they are looking for strangers in parks and in main streets...

Someone 'splain me.... why is HK so awesome, what is there to do there, and why should I want to go? I thought HK was just all hookers and sushi.

pics or did not happen

It's a cultural mashup, an economic force, and a totally intense experience.
Under British control for 100 years, China has been smart enough to keep their hands off HK - resulting in a very open, forward moving country.

What do I like about Hong Kong? It's a country of contrasts. You can go from spending $2 for a meal you can't finish to eating in restraunts so snobby you'd never be able to afford a starter.

You can be diamond shopping on Nathan road in one moment, and trawling the alleys of Mong Kok next, and finish up bobbing over Victoria Harbour on the Star Ferry (a hong kong insitution..)

The best part of Hong Kong? It's 60% national park, a fact that escapes almost everyone. Whenever the hustle gets too much, you can take any number of hikes or walks and totally disappear - you'll be in mountains, hidden beachs and coves, and won't see anyone.

I'm going to go into GFY cry baby mode and say, "post proof or be banned!"

Surely look like a busy city

Interesting.... how is the language barrier there? Is there a good percentage that speaks English?

Nice. I was lat there in 77...
On the skyline, looking from Kowloon, you'll see a small to medium sized building with round windows... When I was there that was the HIGHEST Building on the skyline !

Looking at pics now... Its TINY lol

I watched a travel report about hong kong,they have clubs where you need to pay 2000$ monthly membership if you want to get it.Or if you want rent helicopter to reach hotel from airport it cost 3000$.

It was a british colony for 100 years, and it's a hub town - you do not need to speak one single word of cantonese or mandarin. Everyone speaks english.

Yup, you can send yourself broke there in no time :)

One for the Trainspotters - the building in the middle is the building featured in 'The Dark Knight' :)
Then on the other side of the coin you have..

Contrasts :)

Pics more pics!

lived there for a few years - it's a great place - just get ready to spend a lot of cash on drinks ... cheers ;)

I never shot the city, because it's been shot to death previously..

let`s see more pics...

I've just been to Shanghai, Manila, and Hong Kong in last couple weeks ... I have yet to have any GOOD SUSHI.
WTF is up. Where the fuck can I get some good sushi that AT LEAST matches the places in L.A.??

I just went to some place that was recommended to me by someone here and it was retardedly bad.
I was expecting BETTER THAN LA sushi but nope ...


BTW, im sitting in my room in my chair facing my window which is right on the bay in Kowloon facing HK island.
Its 1:07AM here now and Im watching boats drive by in the bay and the bright ad-filled skyline of HK island.

Sweet :)

There's excellent sushi in HK if you know where you're going.
There's one just down from Times Square in Causeway bay where you order your tuna / salmon / soft shell crabs by the pound. Sushi rivalled only by Japan :)

Go to LanWaiFong and enjoy clubbing

Looks like you're having a lot of fun!

LOVE THE HK. Most people speak english. women are smoking hot. nightlife goes nonstop. If you get a chance check out the W hotel. it has the highest pool in the city (on the roof of the 72nd floor!). The view from the infinity pool is amazing.

nicely written...
