Hey guys, what areas do you recommend me to stay to spend 3 days in Hong Kong? Something I should avoid?

I recommend Sheung Wan

Okay perfect. Why exactly?

Depends what you’re after tbh.

First time I stayed in Central (Dash on Hollywood Road). Super handy for working - communal kitchen, desk space, and laundry, which helped a lot.

Now after 8+ visits in a year I usually stay in TST at Marco Polo. Better value, bigger rooms, loads of food around, easy MTR/ferries, and the harbour view is great (if you want to spend a little extra)

Thanks man, very useful 🙏🏽

Has anyone recently crossed the land border between HKG and SZ? I‘ve attempted in 2023 and failed … would like to give it another try on my next trip.

Many cafes. One of the areas with single people and young families.

well, if you have plan to go full time sightseeing for these 3 days you probably will see everything important in city area

First time I stayed at Harbour Grand Hong Kong at Fortress Hill. There is a nice ferry from Norh point to Hung hom.
Second time I stayed in Harbour Plaza Metropolis near Hung Hom.
These areas a little further from the tourist spots. So less crowded and cheaper. But still not that far

I defently recommend to visit north part of city (Wong Tai Sin) and kowloon peak

Also Hong Kong has amazing coctail bars scene. Bar Leone is top 1 in the world right now.

Why did you fail? Just curious what happened

Yeah, and south route is gnarly haha
I recommend you east side. And if you go on sunset it's better to have flashlight with you

Hey guys, I’ll arrive in Hong Kong in one day and will stay for 3 days. Anyone around these days to have a coffee/beer?

i first went to the wrong border crossing, which took about 2-3 hrs to get back into hongkong and then finally arrived at the right border crossing where they held me up for easily another hour before telling me that the office where i would get my visa on arrival is just around the corned, right over there, oh it's closing in three minutes, oh it's closed, too bad for you, come again tomorrow lol ... incredibly frustrating experience to say the least.

I haven't done it for a couple of years but I have done it countless times in the past.


Just go here and cross

Hey Hey how is it going everyone!

awesome mate

Anyone know of a place in HK where I can get electronics components (LEDs, transducers, cases, etc.) and get advice from some experts on part selection based on what I want to build? Kinda like a concierge im imagining something like this exists.

Probably here, but Shenzhen is better.

Need some digi nomad from hong kong to rate me blog https://hongkongasianseoexpert.blogspot.com

What's up people? I'm considering doing a bit of nomad life in HK later in the year, like September or October. How are things there right now?

September is typhoon season. November is perfect.
