hong kong december 2007 - day 9 and 10

editor's note: there were numerous pictures from day 1-7 that couldn't be displayed. It was an editing oversight and have been restored :)

day 9 (26th) - New Territories (Yuen Long)

had dimsum breakfast at Ho Choi today, cos' it's really good. Ordered 9 types including carrot cake, etc. All are good.

Tin Shui Wai (West Rail)

then took MTR to Mei Foo, transferred to West Rail to Tin Shui Wai. Walked the Ping Shan Trail consisting of 9-10 historical structures through the village.

Hung Shing Temple - last station along Ping Shan Trail


Town well, sealed up but still full of water

the LRT was experienced on real rail on ground level, with different route numbers. Finished the Ping Shan Trail and took LRT 761P at Hang Mei LRT to Tai Tong LRT.

There are NO barrier gates for LRT.
You're at your own liberty to tap-in-tap-out.
Of cos, HKD290+prosecution for not paying up.
