Welcome to Hong Kong. As a local Hongkonger I am so glad you love Hong Kong. After watching your video, I can even discover more how amazing of this city is.Thanks for your vlog, just simply excellent.
Thank you so much for your warm welcome! :D
Thank you for visiting Hong Kong! ❤
I am a local in HONG KONG. I understand it all depends on one's budget. Yet I recommend to stay in regular hotel, but not Airbnb in some old buildings . The hotel usually has a nice environment with better cleaning . That is my advice for all travelers
Thank you SO much for your tips! Next time we will definitely opt for a hotel.
We chose the Airbnb over a hotel for a specific reason, but actually did end up switching to a hotel during the trip (though nothing was actually wrong with the unit itself). We will explain more in our coming video!! :)
totally agreed.
You stayed in a building with no elevator??? Why? Stay in a hotel. Some are very reasonable
Will explain in the next video 😊
Yes, as a local Hongkonger, very less people in HK use Airbnb, it's not famous and led to poor quality living place 😢
Hong Kong is one of my favourite cities in the world. Amazing architecture, food, geography, transport, convenience, modernity, history. It's pretty much got everything.
I recommend you do two things.
1. Eat a steamed garoupa on lamma island at one of the seafood restaurants. Trust me, even if you don't like fish you'll like this. Rainbow restaurant is a classic
2. Hike up to the top of Braemar Hill, stand on the rock and enjoy the most epic 360 degree view of Hong Kong.
We have really enjoyed it!! We were on a weird schedule for a lot of our trip, which kept us from trying the best food. Definitely want to go back sometime though! :D We didn't even know about steamed garoupa!
Thanks for your travel guide, I planned to do in this Autumn.
@@IfWeGoTo I already subscribed to your channel, hope to see your Shanghai video soon
Thanks
hehe tysm!!
So great that you are showing HK. Mongkok not the glamorous side of the city but it does have a lot of character. The scaffoldings is not because they are poor, but bamboo is actually proven stronger than steel scaffoldings in a storm. And it's environmentally friendly and economic, best of both worlds. But it does take a special technique and skill to do so there are trained professionals to do it. That's what is used for renovations and building skyscrapers. Amazing to see!
That's why we chose to stay there initially!! We like the more local areas - better food, people like the tourists, and we want to just experience a little slice of life there!
All great points about the bamboo - it seems very smart and sustainable to use!!
Bamboo scaffolding has been a tradition for HK for many years! prob the only place in the world that uses bamboo for scaffolding. Its cheap, strong and quick to put up and down compared to metal.
Thank you!! It seems very sustainable and smart to use!
@@IfWeGoTojust don't let kung fu panda see it 😂😂😂😂😂
@@djdad2482 Hahaha that might turn into a disaster!
@@IfWeGoTo they also use it as its environmentally friendly plus due to the number of typhoons that pass by, its extremely flexible and less dangerous than the steel ones commonly found elsewhere.
HK is my hometown, thank you for doing this video! Makes me miss HK so much, and hope you guys enjoy your month there!
Thank you so much for watching!! We had a fun time in Hong Kong!!
The most underrated travel channel of TH-cam. Thanks again for another amazing video!
Wow, thank you so much! 😊
I went to Hong Kong last year just as the announced they dropped all covid restrictions. Am from uk so it was 14hr flight! But so worth it! After watching your video brought back so much memories. My first time travelled on my own too. Glad you guys enjoyed it. I hope to visit again cuz theres so much more i wanted to see.
So happy to hear the video brought back good memories, thank you so much for watching!!
I hope you get to visit again soon too - there is so much cool stuff in such a small place!!
I live in HK for many years, very dynamic , a city never sleep with diversity of people all over the world. If you are fast path person this place will impress you. Hope u two had a great stay here❤
Absolutely true!! Thank you! :D
Me too
Hong Kong local here, welcome to HK! I am glad that you’re having a pleasant stay here. For the bamboo scaffoldings, it’s used in construction/renovations and once the work is done, the scaffoldings will be dismantled. Hope that helps! :D
Thank you very much!! We had a fun time!! And thank you for telling us about the scaffolding, it was pretty neat and unique!!
You should go hiking the rural side anywhere of HK, the views are just stunning and they're all reachable within 30 mins from the city.
Thank you!!! HK looks like it has some great nature to get out into!!
This is my favourite travel channel. :) It makes me want to visit places I would haven't considered before. I've booked a trip to Taiwan after being inspired by your videos. Keep up the great work :)
Ohh no way! That is awesome! Hope you have an amazing time in Taiwan, it’s so much fun there! Thank you so much. 😊❤️
Always fun to see a new video come out and feel like I’m experiencing some of your travels!
I'm really glad we can make them!! They're time consuming but sooo much better than just photos!
Love your video! you guys are cool & generously show your trip to Hongkong! Can't wait to see more!!
Thank you so much!! We’ve had a small delay creating our next video, but hope to post it soon!! 😊
Hi! That’s my dog in the black raincoat and my husband walking in Tsim Sha Tsui. Hope you are having great time in Hong Kong! 19:52 there’s a lot more to see too - beautiful mountains and beaches :) have lots of fun and stay cool 😎
Oh no way!! That’s so cool. Your dog is so cute!
We really enjoyed Hong Kong! There is so much more to explore! Thank you so much. :)
Good choice of HK style noodle and tea. It is very popular among the locals. 😋
So good! Thank you!!
Welcome to Hong Kong and have a nice trip👯♂️
Thank you very much!! 🙏😊
Welcome to HK! A warm greeting from the local people! Hope you enjoy every moment in HK😊
Thank you!!! 😊
Welcome to HK !!! That's bamboo scaffolding, as the building is under renovation, workers really climb out and work on the outer wall, the net of it is to prevent objects fall down to the street during renovation. Using bamboo because its tough and strong nature while still flexible enough. It's a HK heritage. Eco friendly as well as they will be reused. Enjoy your time here ;)
Great explanation!
Yes, I agree, thank you for your great explanation and for your warm welcome to Hong Kong!
@@IfWeGoTo You guys are very much welcome ~ BTW, when will be a new video uploaded ? ;)
Unfortunately we’re VERY behind… took a little hiatus to deal with a family matter and then in all of the moving I mixed up a hard drive. I will explain a little more in an update video! But I’m hoping to have the next Hong Kong video up within a couple of weeks. :)
@@IfWeGoTo Ah I see
beautiful smile from both of you makes the whole videos delightful.
Good to see u guys travelling to HK as a hker, enjoy the trip :D
Ahh thank you so much!!! 😊
The blue light you saw are fishing boats in the sea, they usually fish at night with a strong blue light hence the blue lighting
Wow thank you! We did not realize we were flying so low!
Amazing vlog, full of funs , colors and different angles of the city🎉
Thanks a ton!! 😊
I’m also a local in Hong Kong and don’t be surprised if the weather is sometimes raining , sunny, or even humid
The weather was definitely a mixed bag!! Hahaha
Some tips for your next visit:
Spring: Always raining and very humid (sometimes 100% humidity)
May 2024: whole month raining
Summer: Best visibility and blue sky. You can take perfect photos but hot like hell, suggest bring one more T shirt for changing.Otherwise, the humid weather will easily make you become smelly.
Autumn: Best temperature for visit and hiking.
Winter: You won't even sweat, nice weather for city walk. Visibility may not good sometimes, no blue sky.
Thank you so much for your tips!!
Downside to winter - apartments often lack any form of heating, so it can actually feel quite cold, especially at night.
Welcome to Hong Kong. 😊 Enjoy your time.
Dai Pai Dong also famous in Hong Kong and is the place we always have dinner together. It’s so Hong Kong style. If you have time, you can try it.
Thank you so much for your warm welcome and helpful tips!!
Hong Kong is the last (if not one of the last) place on earth still uses bamboo as scaffolding. It’s because it’s fast growing and cheap. They use it to build skyscrapers.
(I was born and raised there until I was 10). Have lots of tips if you wanna know!
It seems so smart and sustainable!! I wonder why so many places decided to go without it in time? Is it maybe more fire prone in dry areas?
We would love any tips!!! We are a bit behind on our videos, but definitely plan to return to HK one day!! We were on a weird sleep/wake schedule our entire visit so feel like we missed a lot of it!
@@IfWeGoTo it seems crazy but they’ve been doing it for centuries building houses, I must admit it does sound very scary though on paper.
@@RaymondwLin it is really smart… I think the scariest part were the ties and the feet were not always evenly cut… but it seems to work so we can’t knock it!!
They sometimes use it in Taiwan.
Welcome to Hong Kong ❤
Those bamboo sticks you see by the building, they are actually building something new by there
Hello,I’m one of the local of hk and Wellcome to Hong Kong,here we have our popularity of food,drinks,technology,etc
Bamboo scaffolding is super sustainable.
It is very strong yet light. It has a tensile strength of 28,000 per square inch, in comparison to steel which is 23,000 per square inch.
It's also cheaper than steel.
We were wondering! It does seem extremely sustainable and like a smart option!!! We couldn't believe seeing the construction guys up on it!!! Do you know if it is more fire-prone?
@@IfWeGoTo And they're eco-friendly as well.
@@IfWeGoToUnfortunately I think it is, and it has happened in the past that fire spread upwards through the scaffolding. It's recommended to cover the bamboo in fire-proof paint to lower the risk.
While we were visiting it seemed like there was a small fire in the night at a nearby business and the scaffolding was affected. But we were not sure what had happened!
Hopefully most places do that!
You are so welcome to Hong Kong! Please enjoy the trip
Thank you!!! 😊
Thanks for visiting Hong Kong! Hope you enjoyed your stay here!
Your presentation is highly interesting to watch. Thank you very much and take care 😊
15:53 - the bamboo scaffolding outside the buildings - they are under renovation. Sometimes you'll see workers climbing all over the scaffolding doing the work. It is quite common here in HK.
Yes!! There were lots of workers!! It was impressive!
The beaches in HK is beautiful and quiet
I wish we had made more time to see the beaches!! Next time!
Welcome to Hong Kong and I think it’s nice for you to stay a few more days to explore more of our city. Maybe you can go to the islands to see the beautiful fantastic views❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Thank you so much!! We were able to visit a bit on the other islands too - it is so beautiful!!
Loved the video, so excited to see more Hong Kong videos!
Thank you!!! More to come soon!
Wow, the HK Express train was ultra clean and modern. Comfortable, too.
Brisket of beef noodle soup is a safe and delicious order.
Wonton noodle soup is also very tasty.
Yes, thank you very much!!
Thank you for vistiting HK; Yes, HK is very much like New York. The only diverse and the only active metropolitan in the Eastern side of the globe.
Thanks for sharing - it was such a cool place! And for your warm welcome!!
Hk is my hometown, moved to uk. I rlly miss it! The train stations are known for like new, clean and safe so yeah! Seeing this honestly made my day. Hotels are usually cleaner than airbnb though.
Thanks for coming to Hong Kong :) the bamboo that’s covering the buildings is called scaffolding. It is used for renovation. Actually it is a traditional Chinese style renovation method which only a few places still adopting nowadays. you should take more picture of this as it may be disappear in the near future.
Thank you for your warm welcome!! That is really cool that they use the bamboo instead, seems sustainable!
Welcome to Hong Kong.
Thank you!! 😊
If u guys still in hk, try to spare 1-2 days to Shenzhen , a very modern city just next to hk about 1 hours train ride.
Next time we really want to!! We need to apply for the correct visa to visit mainland China!!
Welcome to HK, really enjoy your vlog
Hotel maybe a better options for first time travelers cheers :)
Thank you!!! And yes, we learned our lesson part way through our trip!!! 🤣
I like Hong Kong being the center of Asia, both location and culture-wise, which makes Hong Kong so unique from all other places.
Welcome to HK ❤
Thank you!! 😊
Welcome to Hong Kong 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!!!
Using bamboo scaffolding is unique in the world, as bamboo is flexible, strong and cheaper than a metal/aluminium material. It is erected and dismantled by skilful workers. Some type of bamboo scaffolding can allow workers standing on it to do the external wall works.
As other viewers said, I definitely not recommend staying in Airbnb in old building due to insurance coverage or poor fire system. Hope you had a great time in Hk.
Ahh thank you for letting us know!
And yes, we definitely learned our lesson, we explain in our next hong kong video!! hahaha
Good to know you guys are enjoying some adventure in HK! Yes we do use bamboos to do renovation work for buildings. Hopefully you guys will enjoy more good food here
Thank you!!

Ahhh thank you so much!!

I live in Hong Kong , there is a lot to see there , Disneyland especially has a new Elsa ride and a lot ! I hope you enjoy it here🇭🇰👐🏻
So much to see and do!! We’re excited to share our video from Disney too!! We’ve now been able to experience all of the parks and we honestly loved Hong Kong’s version!
Hi! I am in HK now to visit my parents. I was here on July 2 until Aug 13. Thank you for making videos introducing HK!
Oh how lovely!! Hope you have a great trip!! Thank you for watching!! 😊

glad to see foreigners visiting HK again. Immerse in HK food culture and our country sides, u will like it.
So happy we got to visit!! Thank you so much!
Interesting u guys chose that neighborhood to stay for the first time...
We usually prefer the more local neighborhoods!! Better food and people tend to appreciate tourists more... although in Hong Kong we found the more touristic areas to be a better experience overall!
Good travel❤
Thank you!!! 😊
Omg slayyyyyy I live in HK lol
Yassss!!!! Thank you!!! And it’s such a cool city!!
I am so happy that you guys love Hong Kong. Welcome! The bamboo stick you took on the building is actually a construction technique that Hong Kong uses a lot. There might be repair work on the building wall, covering it to prevent some tools from dropping on the road, and the sticks are for workers to walk on them.
Thank you!! Also that is good to know, it was everywhere so we were so curious!
Those bamboo'ed buildings have a very unique style that you can recognize. They are already like 45-60 years old buildings where usually the old/poor people are living in there. Even worse is that some apartments could even partitioned like 1 into 3, 4, 5 bedroom for the poorest people in HK. Like you say, it could just one street across and see you see rich people in high rising/new buildings.
The bamboo'ed building in your video is under large scale of renovotion. Very likely due to forced inspection and maintenance regulation imposed on these old old buildings.
Ohh that makes sense! Thank you for explaining, we thought the contrast was very interesting!
Welcome to hk ....glad to have more sincere and handsome pretty tourist to come to hk
Have fun
Thank you!!! 😊

Thank you for your recommendations! We also love birds!!
guys, welcome to hk and looking forward to your next video of exploration and discovery in hk.😅
Thank you!!
Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Shenzhen are all big cities in China. Shenzhen is next to Hong Kong and can be reached in 30 minutes.
Thank you for your recommendation!! 🙏😃
Now u need to go up to the mainland 🇨🇳🇭🇰☝️
We are very behind on videos but did visit Shanghai!! 😃
Not every one in Hong Kong can afford a car for a numerous of reasons. Gases are super expensive and are not sold in a gallon unlike the US. And apartment complexes do not give you a parking spot, you have to rent the spot separately from the apartment rent. Not everyone can afford and is hard to drive in Hong Kong just like New York.
The airports, train stations, and subway stations in East Asian cities are big and new, and the trains are very clean. They are completely different from those in the United States.
Definitely!! I wish the USA had a comparable transit system. The trains in Asia are really incredible.

Welcome to Hong Kong! As a local, I would like to suggest u guys spend some time in Sai Kung, where you can do hiking on different mountains and explore the rural, uncrowded side of Hong Kong :)
Thanks for the tips! :D
That’s always nice to see all the foreign folks to show everyone a true nice video of how my home Hong Kong is. We don’t need to say how nice here but just a fair comment is enough. We also have bad things somehow but I rather to let everyone know it is what it is.
Hong Kong is a multi national culture city and you can enjoy everything here. It’s always easy to access to every places and by octopus or pay wave( except taking the cab you may need to carry enough cash).
Food are nice and people are kind to all visitors.
I agree with a comment that better not stay in AB&B but rather to take standard hotel .
Anyway enjoy and we all welcome you guys to visit again for more wonderful exploration ❤🎉😊
We really enjoyed it!! There are good and bad things about every place, but it is always good to try to see the good in it!
Thanks again for your warm welcome!!

Oh really? What makes you say that? As a foreigner I felt very safe.
Welcome to Hong Kong! Hope you enjoyed the trip here!
Yes! Thank you!
Those bamboo are for workers to climb up and do the renovation and stuff
Thank you!!
The tensile strength of bamboo by weight is like 4 times greater than that of steel, and it's of course, much easier to handle all that scaffolding by hand using bamboo instead of requiring machines just to lift that much steel around. Even 30-50 story skyscrapers use bamboo scaffolding, and can do it all by manual labour without any machinery, because it's better in so many ways.
*that said by the same cylindrical size, not accounting weight, steel is probably closer to 2.x times the tensile strength of bamboo... but then it's also just under 10 times the weight compared to bamboo.
It seems really smart to use it then!! Thank you for sharing!
Looking forward to seeing your video of your hk trip
Thank you!!! Sorry it’s so delayed, we’ve had a LOT going on lately!! I’m about half through that edit! 😊 it’s a long one too! lol
I feel so hungry , at 5 pm here in hk , looking at you enjoying our local food . I love HK and everything about it .
Hahaha the local food is so good! :D
Welcome to HK . Expect you enjoying the trip to HK with delicious food and fruit.
Thank you!!! We had a lot of fun!!
You may want to take this chance to travel to China with the new 144 hours free visa policy. In fact, you can make a day trip to Shenzhen, just take the high speed train or the regular train and you will reach the borders within an hour. Right after immigration, you will be at the metro station in ShenZhen which covers a vast majority of the area in the city. From Shenzhen, you can travel to some of the other cities in the Greater Bay Area, in Guandong Province. From city of Guangzhou, you can take high speed train back to HK in less than an hr.
Yes!!! We actually ended up using it to visit Shanghai! (We’re a bit behind on videos though!) we’re planning on applying for a longer visa to visit China in the future! We loved it! :)

Wow thank you so much!! :D
Welcome to visit Hong Kong. I hope you like Hong Kong’s food, night views, local customs and customs.
Thank you!! 😊
Re the scaffolding, it's used just like steel scaffolding, workers climb onto it to work on building exteriors.
Re the butter, yes often there's a slight lemony zestiness to it, I actually quite like it as it lightens things up a bit and keeps it from feeling too heavy, but obviously not everyone does.
Ahh thanks for telling us!
Oh that is a good point! I also like the butter - Alan is a bit picky when it comes to butters and other junk foods! lol
Eat wun ton noddle, a good noodle served with wun ton which mainly meat in wun ton, the surface of wun ton is a layer of flour paste.
Ahh got it, thank you!
lights were squid fishermen! seems you enjoyed the best city in asia 🙂
Wow we must have been flying lower than I thought!!!
I'm a local HK. Thanks for coming to HK. I do agree with other comments that staying at hotels is better. Also about the bamboo thing - it's the tyipcal construction style here, and yes workers do climb on it and work😂
Thank you for your warm welcome! You are correct, we definitely learned our lesson with the accommodations - we will explain more in our next HK video! lol
Welcome to HK, though it’s been drastically changed and deteriorated on many grounds since 1997 handed over from the UK to PRC😊
Thank you for welcoming us!! I have heard it has changed a lot...
The building with bamboo scaffoldings was probably having a remodeling (e.g. putting on new paint) on the outside. It's a law from the HK government which requires every building to do this kind of work after a certain number of years, say 30 or 40 years. Don't remember exactly the number.
Got it, thank you for sharing!
Welcome to Hong Kong, I wish you a pleasant journey.
Thank you so much!!
bamboo is scaffolding which other countries use steel at building site.
Thank you!!

17:33As aTaiwanese,my ears perk up when I hear Taiwan . Pineapple bread is indeed Hong Kong food, but it's has been popular in Taiwan for a while, so many people mistakenly think that pineapple bread is Taiwanese food, but in fact, it is Hong Kong food 😂😂
鳳梨酥才是.......哈哈
We really loved Taiwan!! Hope to visit again sometime. They had great pineapple bread there too - despite it being from Hong Kong!
