Five days and four nights shopping experience in Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a famous shopping paradise. It is more convenient to go shopping in Hong Kong now. The number of tour groups in Hong Kong is less than 1000, which can basically meet the demand! Shenzhen is also very convenient to Hong Kong. Especially recently, the bridge there has been opened and the high-speed railway is also being opened. I believe it will be more convenient in the future!

You need to prepare in advance to play.

1. Take the adapter to mainland department store and buy it for 5 yuan.

2. You have to change some Hong Kong dollars in advance, because most areas in Hong Kong accept Hong Kong dollars, so you have to prepare some money to buy an Octopus card (the deposit is 50 Hong Kong dollars, and you must pay at least 50 Hong Kong dollars when you leave Hong Kong). It is more cost-effective to exchange Hong Kong dollars at the ATMs of HSBC or other banks, or to exchange them in advance at China Bank in mainland China.

It's very cold in winter in Hong Kong, so you should wear more clothes when you come to play in winter.

4. The Hong Kong Pass has been completed in advance, and now both G and L visas can be passed directly without looking for a travel list from a travel agency.

Hotels have to be booked online in advance, so it is difficult to find hotels for the time being. There are many relatively cheap hotels near Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei. Good position. It is more convenient to come out from the leaves.

6. For the network, the mainland network has no choice. You can open an unlimited cross-border network on Alipay. It won't be expensive.

7. If you travel freely, you must bring a subway map of Hong Kong. It's easy to get lost in Hong Kong. You can use Baidu map to check the bus and subway lines and see how to get there.

Travel notes of hong kong

Before departure, the People's Bank of China exchanged Hong Kong dollars. Because you can swipe your card, you don't need much exchange. We exchanged 3000 Hong Kong dollars. From Hangzhou, the flight is the next morning. In order not to be in a hurry and travel conveniently, we chose to leave one day in advance and organized a hotel near the airport. Price 1 18 yuan. The meal we had at the airport, braised pork with sauerkraut and kung fu, 46 yuan, was really not delicious.

3,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Boarding at 8: 30, the plane was late, and we arrived in Macau an hour later. It was 12: 20. On the way to Macau, we had to go to Hong Kong by boat. In order to save money, we stayed at the Hong Kong airport for a long time because the air ticket prices between Macau and Hong Kong would be much different, and there was a long queue when we entered the customs. There is nothing to do anyway. We walked around the airport duty-free shop, waited for about two or three hours, and finally arrived in Hong Kong.

The ship to Hong Kong is big, fast and steady.

After entering the port, the customs spent more than an hour checking the customs clearance signs. It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in Hong Kong, and we were close to collapse. The first day was basically spent on the road. After getting on the bus, we immediately grabbed the camera and took a novel and familiar street view. We arrived in Hong Kong.

Is this the building you often see in TVB?

Due to lack of time, the first day's trip can only be put on the third day, which takes up our free travel time. On the first day, we went to the Golden Bauhinia Square. Although it's past five o'clock, there are still many tourists, just in time for the flag lowering ceremony. The scene is a bit messy, there are too many tourists and there is nothing the staff can do. The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, the junction of Hong Kong's return to the motherland, really has few scenic spots in Hong Kong. Golden Bauhinia Square can't be smaller. The exhibition center can only look at the appearance and can't go in.

Since I'm here, let's take a picture with a card, although I'm already hungry at this time.

What a coincidence, just in time for the flag lowering ceremony. The scene was a little messy, and there were too many tourists for the staff to do.

After six o'clock, I stayed in Golden Bauhinia Square for 30 minutes and ate the first meal in Hong Kong. Compared with accommodation in Hong Kong (which will be discussed later), group meals can only be described as pig meals. There is no way. After all, the price is there, and the group meals in the next few days are basically the same thing. It's basically the same as the group meal in the mainland.

The first meal in Hong Kong

After dinner, it was all dark. We took a boat to the pier to visit Victoria Harbour. The air in Hong Kong is as good as ours.

At 8 pm, I checked into the hotel. Our hotel is in Shatian District, and the tour fee is over RMB 1000. We are honored to stay in such a good hotel.

Hotel lobby

I didn't bring my bathing suit and swimming cap with me in the hotel swimming pool, otherwise I would like to go swimming.

I went for a walk outside. There is a toilet outside the hotel. Two cans of drinks, a sandwich and a can of plum blossoms, 48.2 Hong Kong dollars. When I went back, I saw a game in which many students of Hong Kong University carried a male student on their backs and bumped his crotch into a telephone pole. I remember my youth. I fell asleep without moving when I came back. I am really tired.

The hotel is next to the University of Hong Kong. I am bald. Ha ha ha ha ha!

Show me the snacks bought at the convenience store.

On the second day in Hong Kong, the weather was very good. I went to Wong Tai Sin Temple first. Hong Kong likes it very much. Goodbye. Wong Tai Sin Temple is full of incense and a sea of people.

There are really many mountains in Hong Kong, and many houses are built on them. Their architectural level is very high.

The government supports it, but it is very difficult if the fragrance is not strong.

Of course, I have to worship myself. Please bless me.

Next is breakfast, Hong Kong. Dinner time, the first one is two hours later than me. Breakfast, 9: 30, lunch at 2: 00 and dinner at 9: 00, it's really hard.

Still a relatively single one.

There are many pharmacies, jewelry stores and electrical stores in Hong Kong, all of which are small pharmacies next to restaurants.

Feel the lack of income in Hong Kong. The minimum job security is 30 yuan per hour. As long as you work, your income is basically guaranteed to be above 9000 yuan. It is said that the per capita annual income in Hong Kong ranges from1.2000 to1.5000. Let me work for a week.

Next is shopping, shopping.

Because the first shopping spot did not meet the expectations of the tour guide, the second shopping spot did not reach a certain time and did not give up, so it had to wander inside.

go shopping

Is it expensive to order that restaurant? Feel the free time of prices in Hong Kong. Outside the shopping mall, Hong Kong is full of traffic, but it does not hinder the restaurants near Victoria Harbour. Many foreigners.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, DFS, the fourth shopping spot, is basically available in shopping malls in Hong Kong, which is not much different from mainland shopping malls. I bought a lot of food, clothes, electronic appliances and cosmetics on the first floor. Most of them were for my friends and colleagues, and some of them were for my own marriage. I'm really worried that both cards will be maxed out and the trip will be over the next day.

At the end of the day, I passed the Jockey Club on my way back to the hotel.

On the third day, I woke up naturally and enjoyed the scenery outside the window. As the first day was late, the trip could only be arranged on the third day, which took up the time of free travel. The leader said it didn't matter if we were late, it was only four hours. There was a lot of delay, and some trips were put into the early morning of the next day, which was really dizzy. Free travel all day, no food, a happy day.

Stretch yourself first.

Go get something to eat.

On the third day, the first stop, Taiping Mountain, the subway is the most convenient way to travel in Hong Kong, and the bus is also quite convenient. Hong Kong people are really orderly.

Only one.

I can't reach the top of the mountain. My eyesight is much worse. I do not see any at all. The panoramic view of Hong Kong at night should be better!

In Hong Kong, every inch of money and house prices are measured by feet, basically 400,000 yuan per square meter. It's scary, and I only serve Hong Kong at the architectural level.

On the third day, the second stop, Repulse Bay.

Repulse Bay Beach

The laws in Hong Kong are really strict, with a fine of 1500 for spitting, 500 for littering and 600 for smoking indoors.

People who live in it are not generally rich, with mountains and water at their backs. They are all blessed places, and the house prices are of course ridiculously high.

There are many pigeons on the beach. They are not afraid of life.

take a picture

The third day, the third stop, Ocean Park. Because of the lack of time, we can only choose the cable car to the top of the mountain and Haihai Park. The seaside is basically divided into two parts, one at the foot of the mountain and the other at the top of the mountain. Ocean Park, you can really enjoy it for a day or two.

In a double-decker bus

On the way to Central, it is still uncomfortable to drive on the left side of the road in Hong Kong. There are 89 subway lines in Hong Kong, which is easy to find. It basically covers the main attractions and business districts in Hong Kong. There are two stops to Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, and the fare is 9 Hong Kong dollars.

Hong kong subway

Arrive at Harbour City, a one-stop shopping spot, which is said to be a famous one-stop shopping spot in Hong Kong, with famous products, beauty cosmetics, clothes and luxury goods from all over the world. It's not as big as expected, and it's not very different from the shopping malls in Hangzhou. Things really feel cheaper than the mainland. It's really easy to buy a bunch of useless things on impulse. The most convenient way to shop in Hong Kong is to pay by credit card, which is determined according to the exchange rate of the day.

All kinds of cards can be used in shopping malls and brand stores, and will be exchanged for you according to the exchange rate of the day.

Japanese food and fresh ingredients were selected for dinner, 68 Hong Kong dollars. It's the first time I think sashimi is so delicious, and the feeling that caviar bursts into sauce in my mouth is so delicious. HK58 yuan, holding the affirmation of the first sushi, ordered another one, Mexican salmon roll. This feeling is a little lost, the skin is too thick, the salmon is a little bit, and the lettuce is too much, so my wife took a bite. I will do the rest.

Dinner on the third day, Japanese food

I'm full. I have bought everything I want. I'm a little tired. Sit down and watch the sunset in Hong Kong.

I am tired. There is a pier outside the shopping center. How can you miss Hong Kong at night?

Taxis in Hong Kong are very expensive at night. It's not 200 from Kowloon to Sha Tin where we live. This is a street that you don't have to walk.

Of course, midnight snack is essential. Online said that if you want to taste the authentic food in Hong Kong, you must go to some time-honored tea restaurants. Here it is. I ordered milk tea, kumquat tea HK32, and recommended strange chicken rice HK45. It tastes strange. There seems to be some spice, but you didn't eat it. Wonton (wonton) HK28 yuan, shrimp and pork stuffing, both fresh, noodles are more like rice noodles.

Here it is.

Tejiban

Wonton Noodles

Eat, drink and be merry, the last stop, the legendary Lan Kwai Fong, Tsim Sha Tsui to Central, two stops, HK9 yuan, get off at Central Station and go straight to Lan Kwai Fong. It's a little different from my view of Lan Kwai Fong. Qishi is just a small bar street on the hillside, which is really small. I found a small bar, which was a little burnt and felt the atmosphere.

From Tsim Sha Tsui to Central.

In front of the hustle and bustle is Lan Kwai Fong.

Lan Kwai Fong

There are too many people.

Foreigners prefer Gui Fang.

At night 10, it is still a sea of people. I ordered two small bottles of Tsingtao beer, HK 148, which was really expensive.

Ah, sir, can we take a picture?

It's getting late. I'm going back to the hotel.

I almost missed the last subway. It took me 30 minutes to get home safely from Central to Sha Tin.

Take another look at Hong Kong, and I will leave Hong Kong the next morning.

On the fourth day, I set out for Macau at five in the morning. There is still more than an hour left, and the queue is still very painful. It's almost noon in Macau, and everything is novel. The architecture of Macao still retains the style of the previous Portuguese period. After a tour, I found the landmark "San Ba" in Macau.

Portuguese architectural style

Mazu Tempel, if you don't go in, you will choose to wander around.

Shopping, some local specialties, bought authentic Portuguese egg tarts.

The punishment is quite heavy.

After dinner, the Venetian Hotel is actually a super entertainment city covering casinos, hotels, restaurants and shopping malls. The whole Venice hotel, with a ratio of one to one, moved Venice into the room. It is conceivable that the size is absolutely beyond imagination, and I don't know whether it is inside or outside. It is said that more than 3,300 brands have settled in Venice Hotel. Only to find that everything in Hong Kong is just a cloud. This is the one-stop shopping city that shoppers dream of. Basically, you can find any brand store you want. The whole Venice hotel can be said to be a miracle.

An honor guard outside the hotel

It's the skeleton of Tyrannosaurus rex in front of the hotel. I don't know if it's true or not. It's enough to put this in the hotel. I also went to the hotel casino to experience it.

Food street, you can find everything you want to eat, and all kinds of brand stores are magnificent and indescribable.

Moving the river indoors is an exaggeration. Macau Night International Fireworks Festival.

When I came out from Venice to stay in a hotel, the accommodation in Hong Kong was really poor. You light a fire, stroll around the streets of Macau in the evening, have a midnight snack, have a radish cake with fried noodles and drink a cup of HK28 yuan. The price in Macau is slightly lower than that in Hong Kong.

Look at what supermarkets in Macau sell. Now I know the importance of English. I can't understand it. The real estate market in Macao is very bad. One square meter is 1 1 foot long. Do the math yourself.

I talked with the clerk for a long time, but I didn't understand at all. We also said that we were helpless. The parking meter, one and a half yuan, automatically paid the price of an old shop in Macau.
