Flight Details

Hotel Details


25 January 2018 (Thursday)
  • Tsim Sha Tsui
  • Hong Kong Museum of History
  • Night Cruise
  • Hard Rock Cafe
  • Temple Street Night Market
Honestly, I didn't remember much about this trip since it was two years ago. So, again like Laos entry, this entry will also be short.. The most distinct thing I remember about this was I took this trip almost right after my manic episode. Our flight was early so we were at KLIA2 as early as 5am. Once arrived, we took a train to our hotel at Tsim Sha Tsui (the whole journey took about two hours). The location of the hotel is very strategic (in the city, easy to access public transport) BUT there was one major problem. It was not as advertised. This was the worst hotel we've stayed in EVER! The owner (who not even a local) was also nor very helpful neither friendly. The room was very small. Luckily we were only there to sleep.

Once checked in, we continued to roam around Tsim Sha Tsui and then took another train ride to visit Hong Kong Museum of History. Since both of Miss A and me love museums, we spent almost three hours there. There was a 'World Heritage along the Silk Road' exhibition. Done with the museum, we went to Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier to take the night cruise, 'A Symphony of Lights'(60 Minutes). After the ferry ride, we went to Hard Rock Cafe and Temple Street Night Market to but souvenirs. It was quite easy to find halal food in Hong Kong. We then called it a night and went to sleep in our tiny room hotel, for tomorrow we were going to the main highlight of our visit to Hong Kong that is DISNEYWORLD!

  • Disneyland
  • Victoria Peak
We took a train ride to Hong Kong Disneyland and if I'm not mistaken, it was about 30 minutes. We arrived at Disneyland around 9:15am. We already bought the ticket from Klook (it was cheaper than the one bought at Disneyland). So, we had fun and Disneyland, took a lot of pictures. And as you can guess, we spent the entire day there! We left around 6:50pm. Our next stop was Victoria Peak. We took a tram ride but we were a little bit unlucky that day. It was foggy and we couldn't enjoy the scenery as much as we hope to see. Still, we manage to take a few decent photos. That concluded our stay at Hong Kong for the next day, we were going to Macau!

On this day, we were leaving Hong Kong and took a ferry ride (Turbo Jet) to Macau. Our Macau tour guide was already waiting for us there, so to be continued...
