Hong Kong. August 2009
Street life: This is a classic view of what Hong Kong looks like: Metropolis, urban, people, cars, traffic, noise, motion, never-ending activity, and a city that doesn’t sleep.
It is a very recognizable scene — show this picture to someone and almost anyone can tell you what city this is. From the old buildings to the red taxis and double-decker buses to the way that the roads line up with the skyline, it is unmistakable that it is Hong Kong.
How many of you have been here before? There is so much to do in Hong Kong which makes it a very exciting city to visit. : )

Taiwan is pretty much the same, 7-Eleven at 2am or even Oyster noodle at 4! love it! 😀
Mmmmmm… I absolutely can’t wait until I’m off my detox so I can eat anything I want again! ^_^
I bet! I’m sure you’ll all have an awesome (ahem) healthy feast after 😉
I’ve not been to Hong Kong. Perhaps one day…

I’ve never been to Hong Kong. I’ve only heard good things. And you are very spot on. I knew right away where your picture was taken!
Nice shot.
Thank you for dropping by! Thanks for the comment too. It’s definitey a very recognizable city scene. Maybe you can see it in person one day. 🙂

Yes, I have been to HK quite a few times when I lived and worked in Shenzhen. There was always stuff to do, places to see, and food to try. The Peak, Sha Tin, Clear Water Bay, Lam Kwai Fong, Causeway Bay… I definitely miss the seafood there. And shopping!!
Wow, I so agree with you! I definitely miss the seafood most of all! There isn’t anywhere that has fresher seafood! Or at least I haven’t been to a city that has such amazing seafood yet. 🙂
We need to go there and eat our way through the city together sometime, with JADE!!!
Yes! That would be so amazing!! 😀 😀
