On the last leg of our day trip to Lantau Island, we found ourselves at the tranquil village of Tai-O. This is my first time here. I enjoy how slow-paced everything is. Took a lot of pictures In Tai-O. Going to share 20 of my favourite 360° photos with you; this will be a really […]
22nd January 2018. Day Trip to Lantau Island. A crowded, sunny afternoon. Luckily, the occasional chilly breeze kept things cool. Nothing much changed about this place since my previous visit many years ago. At the base of Tian Tan Buddha, preparing for the climb up. Very popular tourist attraction indeed. After 268 steps, we have […]
Just left the very touristy “Ngong Ping Village”, RR and I were heading to Po Lin Monastery. Stepped inside a local shop, where they sell beancurd made with local spring water and hellishly spicy Hong Kong style fish balls. Enroute to Po Lin Monastery, there were some stone tables and stools for people to take a […]
On the 5th day (22nd Jan 2018) of my Hong Kong trip, we went to Lantau Island to escape the bustling city life. We took the MTR to Tung Chung station. As most of the passengers alighted at Sunny Bay station, the station before Tung Chung station, to go to Disneyland Hong Kong, the train […]
These are the results of my 360 camera’s first overseas trip. Did not fully understand the limitation of my camera, but I will learn as I go along. Museums are normally dimly lit places. Under low light conditions, I should have set the camera down somewhere (on a tripod, perhaps) to get the best of […]
On the third day (20th Jan 2018) in Hong Kong, Constant Companion RR got a little under the weather. Resting in the hotel and unable to join me, I carried on with my plan to visit the Hong Kong Museum of History. There was an exhibition about the Silk Road which required a small admission […]
Had a lovely week in Hong Kong recently. With Constant Companion RR, we have done a crazy amount of walking up and down the crowded and vibrant streets of Hong Kong. Instead of using Hong Kong’s efficient public transportation, we have decided to leg it as much as possible like we always do. Not only […]
Last week, while feeding my hobby of watching (and re-watching) old Hong Kong films, I found myself watching “Young and Dangerous 3” again. Though the “Young and Dangerous” films (and their spin-offs) were immensely popular, there is just something about them that did not click with me. I always thought they are poorly filmed and […]
Due to life’s many commitments, the only time I am willing to spend watching movies is the time while I am sweating away on the elliptical machine in the gym. Recently, I found an old Hong Kong movie from the 90s which I have not watched before. I jumped right in without knowing anything about […]
