Can you list some practical skills for traveling in Hong Kong?

I never thought it would be so convenient to travel to Hong Kong one day.

Last year, I set out from Beijing for Hong Kong. Because it was a temporary decision, I bought an expensive air ticket in a hurry and spent more than 2000 yuan (one way). Now the high-speed train from Shenzhen to Hongkong only takes 18 minutes, and the fare is 75 yuan.

When I entered Hong Kong last year, I had to queue up to check my documents, and even I was arrested by the staff? Interrogation Now, with the ID card of the Hong Kong and Macao Pass, you can check your documents and fingerprints on the machine yourself, just as easily as checking tickets by train.

I used to think Hong Kong was a place? Hard to get close to? A big city for people who don't know Cantonese? Retreat? Nowadays, mainland tourists can be seen everywhere on the streets, and Hong Kong staff who speak Mandarin well can be seen everywhere in the urban areas.

In the past, travel to Hong Kong was limited to shopping in Yau Tsim Mong, punching in the scenic spots of Ocean Park, walking on Repulse Bay beach, or eating a long-awaited Michelin restaurant? Now, Hong Kong tourism has added something new? Pattern? Ordinary people can also take a luxury cruise to the sea for a holiday, and the price is not as expensive as expected.

Practical tips for Hong Kong tourism.

(1) Hong Kong people don't seem to pay much attention to the Internet, so be sure to surf the Internet with your mobile phone before going. Never buy a cheap traffic package to save money. You cry when it's useless or not easy to use. It may take many times more money than you have saved to buy back the traffic (the same is true in many foreign cities).

The trunk of a taxi in Hong Kong is very large. It's no problem to pack four or five 20-inch suitcases, and two backpacks can also be put in. However, there is a surcharge for luggage. One piece of luggage is around 5 yuan.

There are three tunnels in Hong Kong: Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel, Western Cross-Harbour Tunnel and Eastern Cross-Harbour Tunnel. Among them, the Red Tunnel was opened to traffic at 1972, and it was also the first cross-harbour tunnel in Hong Kong, with a total length of 2 kilometers, which was a major event in that year. This tunnel is a road that is transported into the sea after the pavement is completed, and then drained and opened to traffic. In Hongkong, cars crossing the tunnel are charged separately, with speed limit and current limit, and 55 yuan is added.

(4) There are still many businesses in Hong Kong that only accept cash, so how much Hong Kong dollars should they exchange? If you are not used to carrying cash, you should get an Octopus card and deposit the money in it so that you can use it at any time.

Next to the new airport in Hong Kong is the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. It used to take 1-2 hours to go to Macau by boat, but now it takes 45 minutes to go to Macau. Next to high-speed railway station is the Star Ferry Pier, which means that high-speed railway station is a famous tourist attraction. What is this geographical location? Unique? The transportation is extremely developed and convenient.

The area of Hong Kong is very small, only 1 in Shanghai, so there are few buildings owned by Hong Kong people. One room, one living room and 40 square meters are the daily life of ordinary citizens, and only 8 square meters can be rented for 5,000 yuan? Bed? ; Hong kong? Winter? It's short, so a trip to Hong Kong is? Winter? , also can't put on thick clothes.

Route, entrance and riding strategy of high-speed rail to Hong Kong.

① Buy a high-speed rail ticket from Shenzhen North Station to Hong Kong West Kowloon Station online. The fare is 75 yuan. The ticket gate is usually at the entrance 1 1, and can arrive 15 minutes in advance. After entering, take the high-speed train as usual. The only difference is that there is a metal fence on the platform from Shenzhen to high-speed railway station.

② Get on the bus and wait quietly for about 18 minutes. The announcement of the high-speed train has arrived at Hong Kong West Kowloon Station. When you get off the bus, you will see the elevator. Take the elevator to the lobby with the crowd. Look up? Arrive in Hong Kong? Brand.

(3) From here on, a staff member with relatively standard Mandarin will guide you all the way to the entry plane, take out the Hong Kong and Macao Pass, put it on, identify it, open the door, press your thumb's fingerprint, and the machine will send you a small note with the time of your stay in Hong Kong and get out of the plane. Then the security machine checks the luggage and passes the inspection.

④ Besides high-speed railway station, there are duty-free shops in the station. After passing the duty-free shop, you can see the subway station. Exit F of the subway station leads to Harbour City, and it takes 20 minutes to walk from Harbour City to Star Ferry Pier. People come and go, luxury cars shuttle, the market is bustling and full of Hong Kong flavor.

⑤ Download the electronic navigation in advance, which is simple and easy to use. However, the roads in Hong Kong are full of twists and turns and details. Sometimes it is better to ask for directions with your mouth than to navigate.

One last hint: it really looks different now. Hong Kong compatriots can basically accept the fact that it will be normal for mainlanders to travel to Hong Kong in the future. So the biggest feeling in Hong Kong this time is, please feel free to speak Mandarin boldly. Our compatriots in Hong Kong sincerely welcome us. I used to be very polite, but now I'm a little more enthusiastic and my Mandarin is getting better and better.
