Train Map

When I plan my trips, I always google tourist maps, travel guides, and the like. It helps me create my itinerary and plan my travel budget. Sometimes it's easy to find accurate, useful maps, sometimes it's challenging. So for the sake of travel planners like me, I'm sharing photos of maps i got from Hongkong Tourist Centers, maps on the subway, and other useful travel guides I got during my trip. Hope these helps you too. =) Happy travel!

Sorry. Some photos are upside down. I don't know how to adjust it.

         Well, I can't really say that this is resto review since it's been a couple of months since I've visited the place and I can;t remember how each dish tasted. It would be unreliable if I try to write comments now about their food. I'll just have to post photos of the dishes and let the pictures speak to you. But one thing is for sure: DELICIOUS FOOD. 

        Let me also say that it took us almost (or was it more than) an hour to locate this place. Thinking that it was very near our hostel, we took a supposedly short walk to the resto. And d*mn, it was far. So I recommend you take the MTR to Olympic City. From there, it's just a short walk. I can't give you the directions though coz we didn't try it.


       When you enter the resto, you'd be seated on a table and given a slip (photo above) which has the menu and prices of each food. You just have to check the ones you want to order and give it to the staff. Your foods will be served to you.

       Anyways, here are the photos of the dishes we tried in Tim Ho Wan:







      And here's a flyer of the resto. Maybe you can locate them easily through this. Not sure though. Good luck to you =)

1. Study Hong Kong’s MTR and bus system. But actually, knowing the MTR system alone would already do you good. Hong Kong is very accessible. You can reach most places by taking the MTR. Hence, by carefully studying the system, you’d be able to go, see, and experience Hong Kong.
2. Research on the places you want to visit. If you’re into museums, you might want to take note of the dates when admission is free (it’s usually on Wednesdays). It can save you a couple of bucks.
3. Shopping and Bargaining. I think prices in the street markets of Hong Kong were still expensive; good thing I knew something about bargaining. You can usually cut the initial price and pay half, maybe even lower. Also, don’t buy on the first store you see. Go further in where you can get better deals. Like when buying souvenir shirts; stores in front charged 100HKD for 5 shirts but in other stores you can get 8 shirts for100HKD—same quality.
4. Read about HK’s customs and tradition—so that you won’t get shocked when you get there. There really is a difference in their and our culture.
5. Download Discover Hong Kong apps produced by the Hong Kong Tourism Board and MTR app to guide you in all your travels.
