It's a fishing village with a large market and lots of seafood restaurants. A strong expat community too. It's also a place with lots of ferries to outlying islands.
Sai Kung Pier...
Had a nice feel to it. Stayed a few hours and came back to Central...
I read an article about a guy who walks from Admiralty (next suburb to me) to The Peak and down to Aberdeen. I didn't have time for that, but wanted to check out the zoo, which is on the way.
The zoo is free and a nice bit of park right in the city. It has a big aviary and some monkeys, lemurs and orangutans.
I left the zoo looking for the path to The Peak, and ended up going all the way to top. I have been up a few times, but always by tram. It was a very steep and long walk. Had a coffee at the top, and walked back down.
On the pathway up. Check out the cars...
Then I caught the tram to Wan Chai and picked up my new glasses.
Lee Tung Street...
For dinner I found a dumpling place. Nice but the highlight so far is the pho.
Then went for a drink at Taboo, a local bar. Only went there as they had a band who were playing Fleetwood Mac as I was passing. Got severely harassed by the "hostesses" so I left.
