You won’t see many tourist places in my videos, I rather like to show the “real” sides of each country in my videos. Where do the local people go to eat? Where do they hang out? How do the locals travel through the country? Stuff like that.

Great to see you finally in HK. One of my favourite places in the world. I’ve visited at least 25+ times. The transportation system is one of the best, if not the best in the world whether you take a bus, the MTR, taxi or Ding Ding. The latter a must to see HK from the front seat, upstairs on a tram. Also make sure you take the bus from Central to Stanley Market and again grab the front seat upstairs. One of the best rides in the world on twisty coastal roads. So many things to see and do and did I mention the food! Have a blast, I have never ever been disappointed in Hong Kong!

Although MTR is convenient, the airport line is a premium service and is therefore considerably more expensive. Plus, you would often need to change trains. A more hassle free way to go from airport to city would be by airport bus, which takes you directly to many places, has English announcements, and is usually at least 50% cheaper than the MTR airport line. For example, for Dorsett Tsuen Wan where Ken was staying in, bus A32 takes you directly to a nearby bus terminus, 4 minutes walk from the hotel, and it costs only HK$19.8 (roughly US$2.5). For the Blue Girl Beer, although it's German it's among the most popular choices of locals. Hongkongers are used to drink beers of foreign brands, like Carlsburg, Heineken and Asahi.

Great to see this video! I used to live in HK years ago. Before the pandemic, I would stop over there every year on the way to Malaysia. I miss visiting the city, but unfortunately there are so few flights via HK now and what is available is ridiculously expensive.

Your reactions in HK are hilarious. You are a friendly guy, and it draws a lot of positive reactions. Good for you. I, too, always have problems crossing the other side of the road in HK because I'm always met with fences. By the way, my sister is married to a German. Enjoy your visit in HK.

An experienced traveller like you will not face any/much problems in a new country. Thanks for sharing the smooth flight, the wonderful subway ride and your hotel room. Never know that corner hotel room is one of the best...away from the noises, good tip, Ken. Yeah, you will be hearing lots of Cantonese and eating lots of Cantonese food there. Wow, those char siew which come in lean and fatty parts, look very juicy indeed. That plate of choy sam ( veggies ) is yum yum too. Lots of oil and garlics are used, that's why you can see the veggies look shiny. Great that you have a yummilicious dinner. Another interesting video with amazing content. "Doh Jeh" Ken. Sometimes "Mm Goy" can also be used ( Both mean thanks ) Can't wait for your next Hong Kong adventures.

Just be aware of the intonation. For example, 'cheers' is 'yum pui' with emphasis on the second word as the waiter said. Enjoy your stay in HK 😊

Welcome to Hong Kong ❤ I don’t even know now there’s a hotel in Tai Wo Hau until watching your video😂 So happy to hear that you know we speak Cantonese instead of Mandarin. In Cantonese, you can also say “唔該(Ng Goi)” which means “Thank you/Please” as well in a more casual way of speaking, but it’s more commonly used when services rendered

so excited to see you visiting Hong Kong! Your hotel room is actually quite spacious, I wonder if it's because it's for disabled guests🤔or maybe this hotel just have larger rooms. At 20:58 in the video, the shop with white sign and blue letters serves "cheung fun" which is one of the local delicacies you may want to try. if you do, remember to ask them to put sesame sauce and sweet sauce which they may do for you anyway 😋😋

I was recently back in HK; if you had been there at the same time, I would have taken you out for a meal and some exploring. 🙂

@alexmcwhirter6611 Год назад

Hello Ken, glad to see this video. Like yourself I was so excited to visit Hong Kong for the first time back in 1974. Of course it was quite different then as a Colony. It was also the time of Mao's Red Guards and in Hong Kong (but not elsewhere in SE Asia) you could buy a blue Chairman Mao-style suit in Hong Kong (made in China and sold in mainland China department stores in Hong Kong) and wear it when walking around outside. If you were to do that in SE Asia you risk being arrested by the police.

@melongoh1909 Год назад

Been to Hong Kong twice. Visited Lantau island, Victoria's Peak, Disneyland and so on. But nothing was more magical to me than the train ride to Shenzhen and Guangzhou. The train went past rural areas (village) in Guangzhou during sunset and the people there just stopped work to enjoy the sunset on hilltops which was breathtaking and unforgettable.

@user-hd3kh9if4p Год назад

Great that you are in Hong Kong. It is a city I have visited frequently for the past 10 years and love the food and transport system immensely. Transport by busses and MRT is cheap compared to the western world. Taxis are a little dearer but still affordable and convenient. Food is great and most convenient. I would recommend you try a few other places which offer cheap delicious food for the common Hong Kongers such as Cafe De Coral, Maxim and Fairwood. These are food chains but serving authentic local cuisine also sometimes with a bit of fusion of South East Asia and Japan in some dishes. The menu changes every now and then and they are located everywhere. Just google these food chains. Don't leave Hong Kong till you try the milk tea, a much localised version of the English tea, probably alike the tea-tarik in Malaysia with a twist. Do enjoy your stay there. I shall follow your every video on Hong Kong most attentively.

@elysisia Год назад

welcome to hk!! i’m a little late but in case you didn’t figure it out yet, you don’t have to keep buying the train tickets one by one, you press the station you want to go to, in your case you can just press Tai Wo Hau instead of leaving the train and buying a ticket again at Tsing Yi and Lai King, the prices change depending on the station you are in based on distance to compensate!

Places to eat 1. Porridge & steam rice rolls 2. Roast duck char siu rice 3. Wanton noodles 4. Dim sum buffet 3. Chinese Fine Dining restaurant. Places to visit 1. Shopping Mall 2. Giant Buddha (Bus) don't forget cold jacket very cold up there depends on season. Check weather. 1 to 2 weeks should be good to visit the entire HK. Macau if can don't go. The sea trip by speed boat can be a bit uncomfortable bouncing up and down. If want to visit 1 day trip enough. Nothing to see there unless you want to gamble. Expect to hire cab taking you around

Stumbled across your video. As soon as you pointed out you needed to go to Tai Wo Hau station I guessed you would be staying at the Dorsett. I stayed there twice prior to Covid and prices were much cheaper than hotels in the city. Also you might have gathered by now that as soon as you exit Tai Wo Hai MTR station you should cross the footbridge to the other side then walk to the hotel. When I was watching your video I was shouting use the footbridge behind you 😂

Interesting facts: Until now, south Vietnam (particularly Saigon/HCM city) has more than 600 000 Cantonese-speakers (as Chinese Vietnamese). Then, HongKong is a Cantonese-dominant Chinese city (though English is also official there due to the British colonist history during 1840-1997).
