ASP？ TID=673 and; PN= 130 1 About endorsement: I'm not familiar with this. I want to take everything I need (specifically, it is best to make a phone call) to the visa center, fill out the form, get the number and apply for it for the first time. After 14 working days, I will wait 10 working days. About how much money I can bring: The official rule is that foreign currency is equivalent to $3,000 +6. 000 RMB 3 About card dropping: Now Hong Kong can drop not only visa master and American Express, but also UnionPay cards. About shopping in Hong Kong: Personally, I think Causeway Bay is the best place for tourists. I believe there are more students here, and the things you buy are not too high-end, such as sogou Sanjie in Times Square, which should be very suitable for you to visit. Of course, there are some around these big shopping malls. For those who want to buy some famous brands, Pacific Place and Lane Crawford in Central should be yours. Some merchants will put up the brand 1: 1 for promotion. Please see what currency suits you best. About snacks, one has spicy fish and eggs, and the others have fried eggs. I believe many people know the desserts in Xu Liushan. I like mango fishing there best. It's worth eating. The recommended Times Square downstairs is full of Yangzhi Ganlu Lotus Soup: the voltage in Hong Kong is 220 volts, but their sockets are in English, so if you want to bring any charging equipment, you must bring a converter. Of course, when you buy electrical products in Hong Kong, you should also look at the English side. Or our flat-headed mainland friends who travel to Hong Kong. When choosing a hotel, you should also pay attention to whether it is an American hotel or an English hotel. American hotels do not provide personal items, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, slippers, etc. I always buy Sunday cards when it comes to communication in Hong Kong. Calling back to China seems to cost 3-4 yuan a minute, and sending a text message is about the same price (I suggest not to send it, but I haven't received it many times. I will automatically deduct 2 yuan from you when I start the card number, but I heard that New World is the cheapest now. This is the latest exchange rate. Another point is that it is not cost-effective to exchange Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong. The exchange rates in different regions are different, especially in Causeway Bay. The exchange rate is relatively high, 1. : 1.077 is estimated to be the lowest recently. In China, the only places I don't like very much are 1: 1.065, which are Shiyou, Tsim Sha Tsui and Wangwang. Things here are relatively cheap, so the quality is hard to say. And overall, public security is really no better than Causeway Bay. Moreover, there are many shops in Causeway Bay, and shopping such as one-stop shopping is enough to cope with Admiralty and Pacific Place in Central, which is relatively high-end. Similar to our Henglong, it looks good. You can't get the camera equipment. Some small shops will be very cheap, but most of them are parallel imports. It is recommended to buy in Bainaohui and Fengze. It's expensive to buy safe food, but you should try something special, such as Wonton Noodles/2004/11-24/171734 40665438+. 2. For ordinary men, they are called "sir" and women are called "miss"; For older men, they can be called "uncle" or "uncle", and for older women, they can be called "aunt"; For waiters and salespeople, you can call them "guys", and for waitresses, you can call them "ladies". Public security punishment: Hong Kong imposes heavy penalties for undermining social morality, and a fine of HK$ 65,438+0,500 is usually imposed for littering and spitting in public places. Other considerations: With the opening of Hong Kong tourism to individuals, more and more people travel to Hong Kong, and many people do encounter some problems. Therefore, we should remind everyone to pay attention to the following aspects: (1) Don't cash out in large quantities; (2) Keep the travel documents well; (3) Don't leave your belongings in crowded places; (4) When crossing the road, be careful that someone steals under the pretext of approaching; (5) Before taking property, observe whether there are suspicious people around. Hong Kong-Don't go shopping where the guide takes you. They are all unsecured goods, which may not rot, but they are worse in other places. For example, digital cameras only have 32M memory, and things in Mong Kok are cheaper. The subway is recommended for transportation. Every hotel has a map. I don't know which one you want to stay in. Hong Kong dollars can be exchanged or not. You can swipe your card (UnionPay) and bring a kettle and slippers. There is no one-time life in Hong Kong hotels.
