Anyone know where is this Prada warehouse in hong kong ?

Yahoo!!!Will be going to Hong Kong for the 4th time next year in March,from 4 March till 9 March next year.

hi all, i need some help from those of you who planned your trip to hong kong through travel agency..

i am planning to go to hong kong and shenzhen (free & easy) in december, and i was wondering would it be cheaper to book flights and
accommodations through Air Asia or travel agency..

i've checked AA's rates and the rates are quite high.. therefore, i would like to know if any of you booked your trip through travel agency.. would it be cheaper? i would also like to find out which travel agencies in KL are reputable which offer reasonable price for the type of package i'm looking for..

also, i don't want to follow a tour group because they usually bring tourist to those typical tourist spots which i'm not really keen on going.. my main intention for this trip is to shop and some sight-seeing which i believe i can organise myself.. it is not really difficult to travel around HK right as i can refer to the maps and such..

i'll be glad if someone can help me out regarding the stated matter above..

thanks

Hey, the link you gave is for Business Class Fares !   

Northasian, i'll be heading to HK again next year by end of Oct.
What is the weather over there? Getting cold? Should i prepare some winter clothes?

Is end of oct 2010. Lol

Well, the Weather probably would be much better compared with Genting, its much cooler. Metropark Hotel did not came into my consideration during my initial planning as the prices wasn't cheap as compare to Dorsett Seaview or either Bridal Tea House when i chekced , both went to my last options and the prices HK about 400 HK per Night which equal to RM180++ in Msia and location is easily connected to either MongKok Station, Yau Ma Tei with credits alot of food to catch up in Yau Ma Tei esp in the night. They may be several reason i pick either 2 of that, 1st is close to all the nice stuff i wanna get n find in, 2nd is alot of ppl shall be gather around in Mongkok, Tung Choi Street, Fa Yuen Street or Sneakers Street during night time.. I not into comments of anys why MetroPark is not good or why i did not pick, just tat i'm not that familiar and getting less feedback about MetroPark.. Apparently, most of those famous blogger's perfers to visit Dorsett either Bridal, Dorsett look promising but remember to insist on "Non Smoking Room" and Bridal Tea House look pretty romance in term of their design & decoration.

Regard to localization, if you look into their map HongKong "Country" were actually splitted into fews areas or so called "States" like KL, Perak, Johor.. in Msia. So for HongKong right for the Main District they called in Hong Kong Island which covered ( Sheung Wang, Central, Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, and so on.. ), Kowloon District( Mongkok, Tsim Sa Tsui, Jordan, Yau Ma Dei,  Prince Edward .. etc), Lantau Island ( Tung Chung <-- Ngong Ping cable car located , Sunny Bay <-- DisneyLand located) , New Territories ( Lo Wu <-- this is the station will enter to Shen Zhen , Yuen Long .. etc )

*HongKong island is not the Country but is like a district similar to stated, somehow they named it into HongKong and confuse ppl like us as foreigner's.

If you staying in Mongkok, which located in Kowloon District and travel to Centrel in HongKong Island is not difficult at all.. You have too respect on your MTR transportation it build all in one to connect all the places to be visit all around the place in HK. let me put this way so you may follow exactly take MongKok Station--> Look for the MTR Lane Board which Visible to "Central", usually they have left and right lane ( the opposite is heading to differ direction, and those appeared in Grey Colour wording means this train didnot travel to they). In Mongkok Station you may find they have 2 lane, 1 is heading to Central and other 1 is heading to *** Keng Leng ( They used the last station as their direction heading as marking to allow you easily recognise which lane is heading to which location tat bypast).

Time Square is located in Causeway Bay aka Tung Lo Wan if not mistaken but some attraction may reach upon the station n walk few minutes, some may required u reach the station to take taxi to due to quite a distances for walking so no point. ( 4 person sharing 1 taxi is worth TRUST ME, is not that expensive as other ppl comments in here but is something u need to know whether suitable to take taxi or not during peak hour or non-pick hour).

Let me know if you still required any info..  quite free today at home.. lol

Hi all,

Back from HK a week ago.. I was very happy that my Itenary worked really well and I went to all the places that I have planned out.

Once again I would like to thank moody for providing me a lot of tips and info.

P/S: A word of advice - No matter how prepared you are you will always need to e adventurous to find out more about a certain place in HK and don't be afraid to ask. Try to take more bus trip as I found out that taking bus trips are the best way to see the entire HK.

Cheers,
Kylie

Ya I'm still in the midst of updating and uploading my photos from the trip..will provide all a link once my blog is updated..would really help others who are keen on travelling to HK..

P/S:My source of reference are from other's blogs and also Lonely Planet which deem very useful.

well some times bloggers are bias while the travel books gives a more accurate info in terms of the facts.so a combination of both will be the best..

ya was plannin to go again but this time focus more on scenery and hiking..

For a budget traveller you can try make you reservation using Air Asia's GO HOLIDAY, here are a few reasonably cheap hotel in Macau you can consider :

Best Western Taipa

Total Price & Taxes MYR 206.11
Metropole

Total Price & Taxes MYR 225.38
Riviera
The hotel can be considered as First class property. It has a well-equipped business centre, together with a fully equipped gymnasium, squash court, tennis court, and mini-golf course. A good choice for travellers who are looking for a quieter atmosphere in a hotel.  **Previous known as Hotel Ritz*

I'll be staying there for 8 nights in HK and 1 night in Macau. Any nice and cheap hostel recommended in Macau?

i can't find metropole hotel info in goholiday website.
anyone can help which website to refer the rate of the hotel and how to book the room.
Thanks.

as requested... some nooby shots i manage to take of the NP Crystal Cabin... but plz dont mind the foot/hand shots lah. 

hahaha.... my fiance also got fear of height... -___-"

The crystal cabin is so cool.

Here's one tip to overcome fear of taking cable car:
once in the cable car, take out your camera and start snapping.  I bet once you are busy taking pictures, sure "forget" to be scared.

For those who have "cablecarobia", there's an option of getting to Ngong Ping Village by the New Lantau Bus.  Previously, there's promotion for unlimited all day bus rides.

@moody5
there's this chairlift in China, go across the valley, with legs half hanging in the air, once reach the other side, must get ready to jump off the seats..  more scary ah..

I think it's over already.. actually I didn't even know about this promotion... HK people are not that keen on KFC indeed. In HK, Mcdonalds is far more popular than KFC, while in M'sia, as per my fiance, KFC is more popular.. is that true?
Is the chairlift you all talking about like those ski lift? Just a 2-seater chair hanging on the cable?

2. ) Is it a good idea to buy a phone sim card over there in HK to make a call back home, or use my 012 ?

Thanking you in advance.
