If you have not added value to your Octopus for 1,000 days or above, your Octopus will be deactivated. You can go to any Customer Service Centre at MTR stations to have it reactivated free of charge.

I have never been to China before. Between Shanghai and Hong Kong, which is better for a first-time visitor to China, given that both are commercial destinations, quite unlike Beijing which is culturally-rich?
