It felt more like Singapore, with huge great big sky scrapers everywhere.
It was a real challenge to find some of the old traditional Chinese ways of life, as everything is completely westernised.
There's actually nothing wrong with Hong Kong, especially if we hadn't have been to China first. I think that we have seen much more interesting sights and expected the same here.
We did however manage to find a street market selling all different fruits and veg as well as live fish and all sorts of meat bits.
How about some nice pork !!
Old Chinese proverb - "It is said that you are what you eat"
Fish head seems to be very popular here as it is mentioned on nearly all their menus.
I will normally try most things, but I just cant work out where the meat is on a head.
This was one of the most interesting areas of Hong Kong that we visited.
It's the Chinese house boats located in Aberdeen.
There are still people who live on these boats, although a Chinese person on our boat trip explained that only the old people are now left as their children have all moved into flats.
This has to be the smallest estate agent shop that we have ever seen.
You cant see from the photo, but there is actually someone working inside.
The photo was taken on Honk Kong island looking back to Kowloon.
