I have visited HK twice. I love HK and that is the reason I went back the second time. However, after the second visit, I wouldn't go there anymore. There are 2 incidents which happened to meduring my second trip: 1. About 6 of us went to the Dessert Shop (a popular one from Taiwan). When i paid for the bill, i paid with some coins. The boss unfriendly and in rude manner said - We dont accept Coins. 2. It happened in HK Airport. I was checking out a toy and asked for the price. But, in the end, i didn't buy it. The salesman in angry and rude manner said to me in loud voice (shouting) - If i am you, i will take out the hundreds (in HKD) to buy the toy. HK is undoubtly a nice place to visit with nice food. But, some peoples are still having rude manners to visitors which really spoilt things.

(Report Problem)I have been to Hong Kong last month. That was really exciting trip! Especially I am a crazy shopper.... much cheaper in my home town. Some advise for you: well, i went to Tsim Sha Tsui area where most of the brands located, even Duty Free Shops. Sometimes, you can get discount when you show the passport to prove you are foreigners or visiters. You can check some information at the Hotel Concierge or email them ahead. They would be able to assist you. But i found one very interesting website that I can share with you guys, it is www.s-purchaser.com. I ordered some Hong Kong products, like hand cream, mobile...really good in service. My friend tried this and told me I should share with people who want to go to HK to buy aaaaaaa lot of cheap items, but not able to visit very often.

(Report Problem)I love Hong Kong, is so convenient and clean. The metro is cheap and clean! The food is amazing. Great variety of food and in reasonable prices. Everything can be VERY cheap to Very luxury! It's a very lively city. Beautiful night views. The countryside and the islands retain its original taste. It's a place for everyone. And it's BEST for shopping!!! most importantly, things are written in both English and Chinese, people speaks English too!

(Report Problem)Just went there for holiday, beautiful and unforgettable night view. Shopping paradise: Festival Walk, Times Square, Pacific Place, shops on Nathan Road are all good! Foods are GREAT too, especially "Shamrock Seafood Restaurant" on Nathan Road is a remarkable one! They serve good homemade roasted dishes and fresh seafood, most importantly, not expensive!!

(Report Problem)Hong Kong is a safe and clean city. Hong Kong people are nice and polite. It's wet and hot in summer, but I can enjoy sunshine on beach.

(Report Problem)IT WAS A GREAT SURPRISE FOR ME TO CALL HONG KONG FROM LONDON AND OTHER PARTS OF U.K WITH THE CALLING CARD "PLATINUM CALLING CARD" . iT IS SO GOOD AND CRYSTAL CLEAR IN VOICE THAT I FELT AS IF I AM CALLING WITHIN UK. IT GIVES GREAT MINUTES AND COSTS ONLY £5.00. TRY PLATINUM CALLING CARD OF IDT EUROPE COMPANY.
