Re: Taiwan, Hong Kong TR

Great pictures! Maybe some of the commentary isn't 100% accurate, but an A for effort regardless.

Question - weren't you super bored in Hong Kong? I don't really know how a tourist could be there for more than one or two days and not be bored. Not like there's much to do here that's touristy

Very nice!
Do you know the name of the building in 68? I'd like to know who designed it.

Re: Taiwan, Hong Kong TR

I'll add 2-3 more pictures (hope people won't mind too much), since I recently came back from HK. As far as i can see, you havn't visited the worlds biggest statue of Buddha and the Po Lin Monastery. You missed a really sick ride by Ngong Ping 360, a spectacular new cable car and you also missed a really nice view over part of HK and its airport. We had a private (so called VIP) cabin, like all made of glass , so the ride was really cool.

1. Ride by cable car:





2. Arrival at the scene:


3. Worlds biggest Buddha (or so they say)


4. Symphony of lights, whole things its done on music (the show its on like every evening , at 8pm, in like the center of the town)

Re: Taiwan, Hong Kong TR

I was in Taiwan last summer, but have never been to Hong Kong. Any thoughts on the differences/similarities?

Caught some of your thoughts, just wanted you to elaborate if you had some time. Unless I missed a post or something (I am blind sometimes....)
