Exploring Hong Kong Island
Ibis Hotel on
Hong Kong Island
Hong Kong Island
Breakfast included sticky rice steamed in a lotus leaf.
Dinner was chicken
with jasmine rice.
Man Mo Temple
Colorful and smelled great with all the incense.
Within walking distance of the hotel one can buy Tiffany, antiques, and dried fish.
And down the road from all the fancy shops is the Petty Person Beating Place.
There are always these little secret gardens. One wall explained all the herb they were going and what they were used for.
