Where is the most convenient place to visit and live in Hong Kong?
For free travelers, whether it is cheap to stay in Hong Kong is the biggest problem - as we all know, the price of a large-scale hotel in Hong Kong is much higher than that in the mainland, especially for first-time visitors to Hong Kong.
Basic principle of hotel selection: near Metro
Hong Kong's subway coverage network is very developed, and the closing time of the subway is often close to 1 a.m., and the surrounding areas are usually crowded with shopping malls and scenic spots. In order to complete the plan of playing and shopping in limited time, the cheap hotel near the subway should be the first choice.
In general, there are 5 subways in Hong Kong, about 50 stations in total, among which the popular accommodation spots that attract free travelers are Mongkok on Nathan Road on the Kowloon side. Hong Kong can be divided into four parts: Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, East New Territories and West New Territories. The most popular places for free travel are Yau Tsim Mong District, which is convenient for travel, shopping, entertainment and transportation. In short: Chaozhou people love Mongkok best.
Mong Kok is one of the famous streets in Hong Kong. Many of the characteristic streets often mentioned in Hong Kong movies are all over this area, such as women's street, Garden Street, tongcai street, computer street, xixiancai South Street, etc., so it's very kind to live here. Most of Hong Kong is easily accessible by subway.
There are not only five-star hotels such as Langhao Hotel, Dijing Hotel, but also three-star hotel - haowangjiao hotel. Hong Kong haowangjiao hotel in Mongkok is one of the most popular business hotels. Its high-quality and cheap accommodation chain positioning, but also for the friends out, save a lot of money. Compared with the cheap hotels in Hong Kong, the good Mong Kok hotel gives you more money to get the spoils for shopping in Hong Kong.
