大牌檔，很多人誤寫為「大排檔」，其實它們雖然是同音字，意義上卻很不同。大牌檔之「牌」其實是牌照的意思。由於香港法例規定所有食店必須設有洗手間才會獲發營業牌照，但街邊大牌檔卻沒有洗手間，因此不能作為一般食店發牌，而被歸類為「固定的小販檔口」。
大牌檔可說是香港傳統飲食業的一大特色。所謂大牌檔是指在行人道或小巷中排列出一張又一張的桌子，客人便是在這種露天或半露天的環境下進食。大牌檔所提供的食物種類很多，有海鮮、廣東菜、粥、粉麵……等等，大都價格廉宜。部份大牌檔是在晚上才營業，直至深宵才關舖，這正是大牌檔的一大特色。
位於油麻地的
廟街可說是香港的平民俱樂部，有不少街頭食肆營業至深夜，是目前最多傳統大牌檔的地方。由於廟街就在高雅、明珠海景等酒店附近，因此平日也有不少遊客光顧，難怪連餐牌也有英文版了。

Central Mid-Level's Escalator
Starting from Queen's Road Central's Central Market is the Central Mid-Level's Escalator. The Escalator is 800m long, but it actually consists of many sub-sections of small escalators. The escalator runs downhill from 6 am to 10 am and uphill from 10:30 am to midnight everyday. Along the way, you can see the local shops to the mid-levels where the rich reside. there is even a krispy kreme there, though the price is ridiculous at 168 HKD for 2 dozen.
Central District Police Station
Starting from the bottom of the Escalator, you will shortly arrive at Hollywood Road's Central District Police Station. This Doric-style structure gives you a taste of Hong Kong's colonial history.
SoHo
Moving along the Escalator and passing Hollywood Road, you'll then reach Staunton Street. This area is named SoHo since it is South of Hollywood Road.

黄大仙祠（Wong Tai Sin Temple）黄大仙祠又名啬色园，始建于1921年，是香港著名庙宇之一，祠庙设计色彩丰富、建筑雄伟、金碧辉煌，极富中国传统寺庙建筑的特色。 据祠内的《赤松子自述》记载，黄大仙原名黄初平，约于公元328年于浙江省金华县兰溪市出生。他十五岁得仙翁指示开始学道，并在赤松山一石室中修炼，潜心修道，40年不吃人间烟火，最后修得法
道。他得道后，在民间惩恶除奸，赠医施药。因为他隐居于赤松山，故又称为赤松仙子。 黄大仙祠占地18,000多坪，除主殿大雄宝殿外、祠旁还设有小园林、三圣堂、从心苑，以及供善信们购买香火及平安符等的小摊位。祠内的九龙壁仿照北京故宫九龙壁
而建，壁上刻有中国佛教协会主席的题诗，增添黄大仙祠的中国传统特色。 到黄大仙祠祀，据说「有求必应」，签文尤其灵验，但是求得来的签果，都只是解当年的运势。因此在农历过年前后，是黄大仙庙香火最鼎盛的时候，善男信女纷纷前来求问一整年的运势及还神。你可以到呈祥道的 黃大仙祠 『元清閣』免費請已開光的大仙圖像或大仙符。你亦可帶自己隨身的物品，如手鍊、吊咀等要求大仙開光，都是免費的。它是目前唯一提供扶乩 服務給善信 的「黃大仙道觀」。
每月的初一、十五及星期六都會開扶乩給各善信求問。
開壇時間：中午12至 5 時
开放时间：每日上午7时至下午5时30分
票价：免费
前往方法：地铁黄大仙站B2出口，沿指示步行约数分钟即达。

Taxis running in the
city are
red in colour, while those in the
New Territories are in
green and
blue in
Lantau Island. Only the red taxi can go anywhere, while the green and blue taxi can run within their own boundaries. It is offensed to law, if the taxi driver fails to drive you to the destinations.
The taxis can be difficult to hail from the street as they can't stop anywhere with an unbroken yellow line next to the kerb.
Extra fees are charged if passengers have luggage or when required to travel on toll ways.
Passengers can request a receipt if required.
At times it is very difficult to catch a taxi, like on a rainy day and around 4pm in the afternoon (when drivers normally change shifts). It is advisable to first call a taxi company and book a taxi. You will be charged 5 dollars extra.

With over 40 attractions spread across 870,000 square meters of sub-tropical land, Hong Kong Ocean Park combines entertainment, education and nature in a unique way. With over 60 million visitors since its establishment 28 years ago and over three million people visitors every year, Ocean Park is a well established tourist attraction in Pacific Asia.
Ocean Park comprises of two primary sections; Headland and Lowland. Visitors have a choice of entering the park from either of those two main entrances. Interconnecting the two sections is a frequent bus service travelling around the mountain. However the best way to travel across the two sites is by far the cable car system that covers 1.5km over the mountain, offering magnificent panoramic views of woodland hillside and Southern China Sea.
As the name suggests, Ocean Park has many attractions about the sea and ocean. For example the Ocean Theatre, where you can see the dolphins or seals entertaining the guests. There's also the Atoll Reef which is a giant fish tank, which is a few floors in height with hundreds of different sea species.
Apart from the above, there's also a shark aquarium, the Giant Panda Habitat and a sea lion and seals colony, etc etc ...
Remember to go and see the Giant Man-eating Panda!

Board an authentic Chinese junk and set sail into Hong Kong's scenic harbour for a 360-degree view of the city's impressive skyline. Originally owned and manned by Chinese fishermen, the Duk Ling is typical of the junks which used to crisscross Hong Kong's waterways 150 years ago - a reminder of the romance and intrigue that accompanied the early taipans and traders who settled here.
After having sailed the waters and deep sea channels for more than 25 years, the vessel was lovingly restored in the 1980s to her original classic design. Today, the Duk Ling is the last authentic sailing junk in Hong Kong. See whether you want to take because must book in advance. Anyway its FREE!

Repulse Bay
Repulse Bay, located in the southern part of Hong Kong Island, is the most spectacular bay in the region. Its name comes from a 19th century battle in which the British army repulsed attacking pirates.It is one of the most popular beaches in Hong Kong, always packed with swimmers in summer.
Apart from swimming and sunbathing, there are some restaurants and barbeque sites at the back of the beach, very relaxing.
The clear sparkling water and fine white sand are the labels of
Repulse Bay. In addition to these, "The Repulse Bay" , "The Repulse Bay Centre" right in front of "The Repulse Bay", and 129 Repulse Bay are the landmarks of Repulse Bay as well.
"The Repulse Bay" is a residential apartment nowadays, and it was built on a former hotel site. "The Repulse Bay Centre" in front of it is a very elegant, beautiful European building built during the colonial era. This building is not easily spotted, as you need to walk up the stairs after you get off the buses or minibuses (Stanley bound). It has a few restaurants and some shops, and
this place was filmed in a popular Hong Kong movie as well. This is certainly another place to go besides the beautiful beach.
A lighthouse near the beach is a popular place to take photos. Watching the sunset is another popular pastime for visitors. The Zhenhai Tower Park, built in the traditional Chinese style, is located near the beach. Huge statues of the Queen of Heaven and the God of Mercy (Kwan-yin) sit in front of the park.
Transportation:
Take Buses No.6, 6A, 6X, 260 or 262 (bound for Stanley) from Central's Exchange Square or Central's Star Ferry Pier, and get off at Repulse Bay.
Take Minibus No.40 (bound for Stanley) at Causeway Bay's Tang Lung Street (Corner of Percival Street and Hennessy Road), and get off at Repulse Bay.Deep Water BayOn the west of the Repulse Bay, there is a Seaview Promenade connecting to Deep Water Bay. It takes around 20 minutes to reach Deep Water Bay. This is another popular beach, however Repulse Bay is more attractive and more beautiful
