Special Forces Travel Tips for Hong Kong

Just now, the Special Forces generally went to HK, which can't be considered as tourism, but merely passing through to shop. However, there are some pitfalls I'd like to share with everyone~ I departed from Shenzhen North, and the high-speed train takes about 14 minutes. Please note⚠️ there is no signal📶 during the journey. I used overseas Wi-Fi, and there was no signal on this stretch, neither domestic nor overseas. There is a signal after getting off the high-speed train, but once you go through customs and border inspection for entry and exit, the signal becomes very poor again. Inside the West Kowloon Station, the signal is also intermittent. To ensure a smooth subway ride, we chose to use the Octopus card, and of course, Alipay is also an option. But really! Pay attention to the network signal, in some sense, the Octopus card is much better, recommended! HK subway handrails and escalators move incredibly fast! If you have large luggage, sisters, please use the elevator🛗 instead of the escalator, it's dangerous! The subway is very stable, much more so than Shanghai's! But it can be a headache to find the entrance, and you must look at the signs, don't go the wrong way, otherwise, you'll end up going in circles and it will be a headache. Most buildings in Hong Kong are the type that are very tall above ground and then dig down three levels, so when the map tells you to go this way but there's no road in front of you, consider finding a nearby underground passage There are a lot of people, and toilets are really hard to find, you can look for big KFC or McDonald's. Lastly, if you can avoid going to West Kowloon, do so It took me a full half hour just to get out, and then another 20 minutes to find the Austin MTR station. It's better to go directly to a less crowded port, but if you're afraid of getting lost, West Kowloon is still the option~ OK, that's enough rambling, let me share some beautiful pictures I took
