In October we made a flash visit from Taipei to Hong Kong. It turned out to be a big Hello Kitty day, starting with Taiwan airport’s decoration and ending with the Kitty-themed Eva Air flight back.
Hong Kong is definitely a unique place: high-rise, crowded, diverse and western-influenced. For a moment there I thought I was in New York; a feeling you never get in Taipei even when surrounded by colorful electronic billboards. While we didn’t have much time to sample the food in such a short visit, we did get enough time to be impressed by the modern sights.
