On the first day of the Hong Kong delegation, we took a boat to Lamma Island. This is an island located in the southwest of Hong Kong, a small town that has declined over time and young people have moved out, but some foreigners have moved in. Compared with the high-rise buildings on the main island of Hong Kong, I really like such simple and charming scenic spots. (It turns out that this is the birthplace of Chow Yun-fat when I checked the information! Cool~)
When traveling, my husband and I divide the work. I am responsible for the establishment of the first itinerary, the ordering of air tickets and the hotel, and the arrangement of the attractions and the tour guide in the follow-up itinerary. Maintain flexibility in the daily itinerary. The main consideration is to take my mother-in-law and mother together. Go, don't make the elders too tired.We originally planned to take a walk all the way from Hong Kong Park on this day to the Peak Tram Garden Road Terminus, and take the cable car to Victoria Peak to see the night view and Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. Who knew there was a crowd on the holiday, so we had to change attractions and chose to take a boat to South Enjoy the beautiful sunset from the island. (>////<)
▲ In Hong Kong, we met a lot of newcomers to take wedding dresses. We are happy!
▲ Hong Kong Park is small, the weather may be good, and quite a lot of people travel here.
▲ Even the turtles in the pond crawl out to bask in the sun!
▲ Arrived in Central, where there are many high-rise buildings and very busy urban life.
▲Walking to the harbourside wharf, I happened to meet this ice cream truck, I can only say "good taste"!
◎ How to get from Hong Kong Island to South Island?
There are two ferry routes between Hong Kong’s main island and South Island, namely "Central to Yung Shue Wan" and "Central to Sok Kwu Wan". You can take the Hong Kong and Kowloon Ferry from Central Pier No. XNUMX and travel with an Octopus card every half an hour. There is a boat, which is very convenient.We chose the first route, and we walked all the way after arriving at South Island. So first, we will use the "Central to Yung Shue Wan" boat schedule for your reference:
1. Boat schedule from Central to Yung Shue Wan:
* The earliest sailing time from Monday to Saturday is 06:30
* On Sundays and holidays, it is 07:30
* Official website boat schedule:http://www.hkkf.com.hk/index.php?op=timetable&style=tc
2. Ticket price (divided into weekdays and holidays):
* Adults: $16.10, $22.30
* 65-year-olds and children: $8.10, $11.20
▲ The Octopus card can be used for subways, buses, and ferries. Our trip in Hong Kong relies on it!
▲ The ferry is divided into upper and lower levels. Outside the upper level, you can enjoy the sea view and harbor side all the way.
▲ After arriving at Yung Shue Bay, we walked up slowly to enjoy the various scenic spots on Nan ㄚ Island.
▲ The sunset on Nanji Island is very beautiful. There are many restaurants and coffee shops along the coast, all of which can be viewed by the sea.
◎ The pristine scenery of South Island makes people linger.
South Island is the third largest island in Hong Kong, but the island has no more than XNUMX residents. On the contrary, there are relatively more foreigners. South Island is a weekend leisure resort for Hong Kong people. In recent years, many people have bought properties here because of their love of the island’s scenery. Develop into a community of Chinese and Western integration.There are no cars on the island, and there is less noise and waste gas pollution. In addition, most houses are only three stories high, stacked with the mountains behind, walking on winding paths all the way, and feeling the fresh air in the south island and the sea at sunset. Great walking spot.
In addition, South Island is also the birthplace of Fa Ge Chow Yun-fat, which is really cool.
If you’re tired or hungry for a walk, there are all kinds of Hong Kong-style food and snacks on the street, and the price is not too expensive. For example, we bought egg waffles, lattice muffins, and fish balls to taste. We think Hong Kong-style snacks are delicious.When I walked to the middle section, I also ate the sirloin doll noodles and sirloin rice from Cai Ji's snacks, which are not only delicious in marinade, but also soft and tender, and paired with the store's homemade iced soy milk, it is the best food to enjoy!I highly recommend everyone to come to Hong Kong and visit this simple island if you have the opportunity.
▲ I think fish balls are more delicious.
(The egg waffles are softer. I like the more springy texture of the stall at Fuzhong Station.)
▲ I like this snack bar very much. A bowl of noodles is 35 Hong Kong dollars, which is pretty affordable compared to Taipei. ^^
▲ Many foreigners open bars here, and even children live here.
▲ In this Tianhou Palace, when we walked from a distance, we smelled a strong fragrance, similar to floral or sandalwood, and felt very calm and comfortable in our hearts.
▲ Prepare to return to Hong Kong Island at the pier.
▲ Slowly approaching the night view of the harbor city, returning to the busy city life.
▲ After finishing the tour of Nan ㄚ Island, we are about to go to the other side to watch the night view of Victoria Harbour. ^^
