Hong Kong: 9 Places I Love in 2022

1. West Kowloon Cultural District I feel like I'm becoming a wild spokesperson for the West Kowloon Cultural District. "Basically, if any friends are coming to Hong Kong, I always recommend coming here. If you like to chill, you can come for a picnic and sunbathe. If you like art and culture, you can go to M+ or the Palace Museum. If you like romantic and artistic things, you can come and watch the sunset feast at Orange Beach. This is still my favorite oasis in this city, full of vitality and slow enjoyment." West Kowloon Cultural District 2. Discovery Bay In a seaside town on a Hong Kong outlying island with a strong European flavor, one can only reach this low-density wealthy area by boat or dedicated bus. There are also European-style clock towers, white glass churches, beaches, mountains and grasslands, making it a perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle and reach this secluded utopia on a weekend. Discovery Bay 3. Mawan The scenery of Mawan may not be as stunning as other islands, but my first impression of Mawan was too good. Walking on the lush avenue, crossing the fairy tale park through the tropical rainforest, and lazy people under the sun, I also feel the way of life here. Ma Wan Park 4. Nanlang Mountain If you ask me to recommend a hiking route with a difficulty rating of 1 star and a scenery rating of 5 stars, Nangang Mountain would be my first choice. At the beginning of the trail, you can already see the invincible sea and the Ocean Park. When you reach the summit and arrive at a helipad, you can have a 270-degree panoramic view of the sea and various outlying islands, with an extremely broad field of vision. Nanlang Mountain 5. Putai Island and Chek Chue Peng Chau Island is a southern outlying island of Hong Kong, where you can enjoy the boundless Pacific Ocean and take photos that make you feel like you're at the end of the world. To get to Peng Chau Island, you can take a ferry from Stanley Pier, so it is recommended to visit both places together. Putai Island Dawan Beach 6·Pingzhou A relatively unknown and quiet island with colorful houses, a trendy spot for taking photos and coffee shops. You can slowly walk along the seaside. Pingzhou 7. Cheung Chau If you can find a sunny day on a regular day, I believe you will fall in love with Chang. Enjoy a cold beer on the beach in summer. Sit for two hours with sunglasses on, watching the sea and listening to the waves crashing on the shore. The salty sea breeze blows on your face. This is where you should spend your summer days. Changzhou Island 8. Airport maintenance area Since high school, I have loved coming to this place to watch the sunset. Only here can you see the picture of airplanes taking off and the sunset in the same frame up close. It is far from the city center and can only be reached by bus, so there are relatively fewer people here. 9. Tai Ping Mountain Peak Before, my impression of the mountaintop was limited to the cable car and the Peak Tower. But if you enjoy hiking, you can take a stroll on the Peak Circle Walk or the Hong Kong Trail on the mountaintop. Watching the sunset from the West High Hill is also a great experience.
