Hong Kong is well known as a financial centre and shopping mecca...but there is a lovely contrast if you venture away from the CBD to the more rural parts of Hong Kong you will be rewarded with stunning vista's and natural beauty. We were so lucky to be hosted by generous friends who not only were our tour guides but also made Hong Kong accesible for us on our meagre budget, by feeding us during our stay! We were able to experience Hong Kong's rich culture from a different perspective than most tourists. Of course, there is still a place for all the regular attractions. It would be a shame to miss a trip out on the star ferry...(although avoid during typhoon LOL). Ocean Park is a fun day out with sublime views out over the islands and Kowloon Park was a welcome treat with free aviary and flamingo's. And once the typhoon warning gets to level 8... stop taking selfies in the rain and head home!
