Leaving for Silk Road tour tomorrow

Sep 04, 2005 23:38

Last few days passed by quickly and it's time to go tomorrow. I will be AFK for 2 weeks. Spent more time with relatives, but nothing particularly eventful. Will be pic spamming when I come back, but here are some random shots of HK so far.











Shopping centre near my aunt's place, the skating rink is a rarity, that's why it's so crowded







Central business district (early on weekend)




Saturday shopping on one of busiest street (this is one of the few street closed to traffic for shoppers on weekend)







Victoria Park, the biggest within the most populated areas




Causeway Bay, major commercial district. You can see the tram (one of the cheapest and oldest form of transport) and the double-deckered bus (almost all are double-deckered)




Models of cannon from the colonial days used to defend against sea attack







Night time on Nathan Road, major street in HK. There are neon lighting signs hanging all the way along it, which is quite a rare sight outside HK, haven't seen it anywhere else.




Inside the MTR (Metropolitan Transit Railway). One of the most popular and convenient form of transport, usually a lot more people too. Runs underground mostly, now extended all over HK.

p.s. how do you get the picture to line up side by side? It's probably really easy but I don't know.

Hope you are all well. Talk to you later when I get back. *hugs*
