EZ Hong Kong-Dubai

Take the MTR and Ngong Ping 360 skyrail instead of the ferry/bus. Great views of Tung Chung and airport. Don't waste time in the village. Go straight to the Buddha - you can stop in the village on the way back for a bite to eat or something. You MUST climb the steps (268). Views from back side of Buddha are beautiful!! Well worth the trip!

Lan Kwai Fong is perhaps Hong Kong's most popular and well known area for a night out. Boasting numerous bars, pubs, clubs and restaurants, it is a popular choice for the well off locals, expatriates and tourists. The high costs associated with the area makes this a relatively high class location, although the quality and reputation of this area is obvious virtually every night. Visiting on a Friday or Saturday night you may be overwhelmed by the enormous crowds that fill the streets (which are closed for several hours to vehicular traffic), with all bars having only standing room. It is interesting to see that, as mentioned, a majority of the crowds are in fact expatriates or international students. It is one of the few places where English is the overwhelmingly predominant language, although many of the Chinese who are there are most likely to be bilingual.
