What should I pay attention to when traveling to Hong Kong?

As we all know, housing prices in Hong Kong are very expensive. Hong Kong is an international free trade zone. I believe many people travel to Hong Kong just to buy luxury goods. So when Hong Kong becomes a global shopping center, the bustling places, cultural differences and living habits will be different. Before you travel to Hong Kong, please be sure to know the following 10 in advance!

1. Since you are a guest from afar, you should actively integrate into the local society and respect the local living habits. Line up to get on and off, get off first and then get on, and give seats to those in need. Please wait for 5 minutes if there is a newspaper in public or on the racecourse seat. If no one comes back, take it away and sit down, because someone needs to go to the bathroom and will be right back. Do not smoke, spit or throw rubbish in public places, but do it in designated places. Don't feel discriminated against because of fines. This is a society ruled by law, and it is the same for Hong Kong people, mainlanders and Americans.

The public transportation in Hong Kong is very developed. Subway, double-decker bus, minibus and Star Ferry are basically available. Travel is usually by subway and bus. Foreigners must be careful when taking minibuses in Hong Kong, because minibuses fly at high speed and have stops. Unless someone says hello in advance, but doesn't understand Cantonese, forget it!

3. Regarding the exchange of Hong Kong dollars, it is suggested that mainland banks have the highest exchange rate. Don't change too much, try to swipe your card. I really don't have enough Hong Kong dollars. There are also many shops in Hong Kong that can be changed at any time. The exchange rate is similar, but a small amount won't lose much.

There are many special snacks in Hong Kong, especially street snacks recommended by Michelin, but there are often many people waiting in line. If you really can't find Hong Kong special snacks, I suggest you go to KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonald's, which will save money quickly. Ajisen is not recommended because there is a service charge of 10%.

5. If you go to 1-7 days, you must buy a mobile phone flow card, which is very cheap. Generally speaking, you can buy three days of unlimited traffic in about 30 minutes, and so on. They are sold at the gateway. After you come to Hong Kong, 7- 1 1, of course, there are also some treasures for sale. If you travel, be sure to install Google Maps and Easy Ride APP. After reading the news, I suggest installing Yahoo. The weather in Hong Kong is changeable, so it is recommended to take an umbrella.

6. In terms of accommodation, if you want to save money, suggest a youth hostel, but you don't have to choose a location. There are many small hotels in Jordan and Mong Kok, around 180, but you must check your personal finances when you leave. From afar, it is recommended to stay in a hotel with convenient transportation, which costs a lot of money but is safe and secure, saving time and improving performance efficiency.

7. Many medicines in Hong Kong are very good. Many Chinese patent medicines are century-old brands, which are very popular with foreign tourists, such as Luo You, Bao Ying Wan and Bao Ji Wan. There are also many over-the-counter drugs imported from Japan, which are available in Wanning, Watsons and major pharmacies. However, it is recommended that visitors who come to Hong Kong for the first time go to Wanning, Watsons and the like. Although the price is expensive, it is fidelity. After all, it is what you use on your body, and quality is the most important thing. As for pharmacies, there are still many bad businesses that have been repeatedly exposed. If you don't understand, it's easy to get caught.

8. If you are visiting the scenic spots for the first time, you must visit Victoria Harbour, the Peak of Hong Kong Island, Zijinhua Square, Tsim Sha Tsui Observation Deck, Star Ferry and Ferris wheel. If you take care of children, you can choose between Disney Park and Ocean Park. I recommend Disney. Things in theme parks are more expensive. I suggest you take some water and hamburgers and put them in your backpack.

9. If you encounter discrimination or unfair treatment, don't start work, call the police and wait for the police to deal with it. Because the punishment for fighting in Hong Kong is very heavy, 1 criminal record, moving bricks twice, and working hard for 3 months. If you really don't love the Hong Kong police, please use fluent English to quarrel with those who discriminate against you. You will think that you are not from China and don't understand, so forget it. Most people in Hong Kong are very nice, so don't be influenced by the media.

10. Don't ask to be a guest at each other's house. Hong Kong people are very protective of their privacy unless they invite you to go. If the other person doesn't tell you his full name, please call him Mr. X or Ms. X. If you eat, you can AA or cook for him. If you have an appointment to have dinner together, it's best to advance one day, because Hong Kong people go to work late and get off work late, so the arrangement is tight.

Besides shopping, there are many beautiful scenic spots in Hong Kong, where you can go shopping and eat. Be sure to pay attention to the above ten points, which will help you live a better life.
