Hi! I'm coming to Hong Kong next Saturday (9th June), so I'm having a question. As Aiba also came here last March, I'm wondering are there any interesting places in Hong Kong that he visited during his stay there? Do you have any other recommended places aside from that?

Actually I'll be going on tour with my family. But I'm planning on spending a day to go shopping, grab some Arashi goodies and explore everything on my own. So will anyone be interested in doing meet-up? Maybe showing me around?? ^0^

Thank you so much!! (≧∇≦)

Hi there!
As far as I know, Aiba went for an event at Langham place (a shopping center in Mongkok). Personally I don't find it very interesting but you can go check it out if you want =)
He also went to TST (near Avenue of the Stars) for photos with local kids I think. I recommend you visit this area cuz its reli nice and its once of the must-go-to spots in HK for the night view.

Aside from that, you should also go to the peak and causeway bay just cause they are the most well known places. Causeway bay is reli good for shopping. =D

nope I didn't ;(

speaking of places to go, The Peak (as already suggested), usually people go by the Peak Tram, so you could try that

and for shopping, TST has some shopping malls, and you could also take the star ferry towards Central in Hong Kong island and there's the IFC shopping mall :)

Go to Sino Centre 信和中心 (582-592 Nathan Road) to buy Arashi CDs. They have couple CD stores downstairs and the first floor. You'll probably spend like an hour or so there.

How long are you going to stay in Hong Kong? I don't mind meeting up with you. But I'm only free on Saturday evening and whole day on Sunday.

My Japanese class ends at 6:35 and it's at Mong Kok, where Sino Center is. I guess we can meet around Mong Kok. It's one of the tourist spot for shopping. But if you prefer scenery, we can go to Avenue of Stars. What is your schedule so far?

Which hotel are you staying at?
Maybe you can go to the peak in the afternoon and then go to Mong Kok. The peak is far from there. I wish I can take you but I can't. But I can at least take you around Mong Kok.

Um, I guess I can use my Yahoo ID from long ago. We can chat tomorrow night. My ID is battousai25. Message me via LJ or email in case I forgot to log in (because I don't use it often) XD

Hi there!

Me and my family went there just last week and we visited the Ladie's Market (I think it's the same as Langham Place?) in Mongkok. Also we went to the Peak and HK Disneyland. HK Disneyland is in Lantau Island and this is where you can also find the giant Buddha. And, I think it's called Victoria Harbor(?) (where you ride the ferry to go to Hong Kong Island), my sister said there is a light show at night but we were not able to go because we were so exhausted from our trip to the Peak. And she also mentioned a, kind of night market, at the Temple in Tsim Sha Tsui but it closes early, I think 11pm? We didn't have time to go there because we watched a concert. Yep. That's all I know. I think?

Hope this helps and I hope you enjoy your trip with your family like we did! ^^

btw, if you plan to go to the Peak, it's best to go around after lunch because if you go later, there will be a swarm of tourists. We went down at around 5 or 6pm and the entrance were full of people. If you want to avoid that you can go earlier. :)

It depends on how many people you are waiting with. The tram travels for, I think, 15 mins going up and down. But they only have one tram with two cars, so if a lot of people came there's gonna be a line. Capacity is around 120 if people ride while standing. 95 seated and 25 standing.

A lot of people go at around 5-6pm because the view at night is wonderful. :)
