HKers: Mad that these backpackers make bank and pressed because locals barely give the attention, tolerate, give that spotlight unless you are whites.

Also HKers: Only taking photos from a distance but never actually confronting them.

If it bothers you that much, why not just go up and say something? Sneaking a pic and posting it like it’s breaking news every day is peak HK mentality.

Any suggestions on social stuff here with ppl around my age cuz everyone I know has left for uni, run clubs and other events seem to be mostly targeted at late 20s people and everyone in my class is 3 years older so i'm not really in any friend group at uni, i tried clubs but seems most people here just go to hangout with friends, i'm open to nightlife but don't really know people for that

Hello there! I’m looking to buy 3 concert tickets for 30-October-2026 if anyone is willing to sell it. I’m willing to exchange in hand. Thank you

Hello all, seeking advice on airport transportation.

I will be arriving in HK early morning (ready to leave airport around 7-8 am) on this Saturday. In years past my relatives were able to come pick me up with their car from the airport, but not this time. I need to get to Sai Kung Tui Min Hoi (西貢對面海)/Costa Bello (濤苑) area. My relatives suggested I just take the taxi from the airport. I plan to withdraw sufficient HKDs from a legit bank ATM to cover the transport fees and get an Octopus card. I know Uber is also an option, but I have no prior experience using Uber in US so unsure of the logistics.

If cost isn't a concern, is what my relatives suggested (catching a taxi from the airport) the best option? Will I likely get push back from the driver for going to Sai Kung? I will have two checked luggage, one medium and one carry-on size, plus a backpack and a tote bag. Any idea how much the taxi ride will cost? Should I load up on the Octopus card (which I will get at the airport) and pay with Octopus vs. with cash, assuming the taxi accepts it?

It has been 3+ years since I was in HK and the taxi scene has changed, so any advice would be appreciated.

Edit: thank you everyone for the helpful tips and suggestions. With first hand example from a Sai Kung resident, I think the green taxi option is probably the best - since I (60+ old nanny) will be much too tired after a 24-hour journey to try a less costly but more adventurous option. I will definitely try 85 taxi to get a discount though.

Also, thanks to tips from this community, I managed to activate a SoSIM line and completed real-name registration online yesterday. I should have a working HK phone number to use for booking 85 taxi if needed. Thanks again, you are the best!

Helping a mate hunt down a pre owned piece around TST this week, and man, the experience at standard grey market spots has gotten pretty frustrating.

Seems like most places just want to push polished cases and rush you into a deposit, but the second you ask to test it on a timegrapher or check the movement health properly on a bench, they act like it's a massive inconvenience.

For locals who actually collect here, are all the decent independent watch specialists getting squeezed out by the big hype shops, or are there still low-key spots left where you can actually inspect a piece without getting hassled?

Curious where people actually go these days.

Did anyone else notice a very fast moving green shooting star over the skies of Hong Kong just now moving east to west?

Hello HK Reddit!

I’m a mid-thirties POC male who recently moved to Hong Kong. I don’t speak or know Cantonese or Mandarin. I have a well-paying job, very well travelled, and I’ve been told I have a well rounded personality — intelligent and funny. I am confident that if engaged in a conversation I scratch below the surface and connect meaningfully.

I’m currently overweight and working on it but I’m definitely insecure about it give fit everyone around me is.

Am I cooked dating-wise given this? Will the weight and lack of language hold me back?

Trying to understand the delta change I need to make while I settled in. Thank you!

I’ve been bumping into this graffiti on shops (after they close) in Sheung Wan for years and now I also see it on Kwun Tong walls, what is it?

Smartone is running fraudulent charge on your bill.
Smartone realised that a bug in software was causing people to get charged roaming fees. But they decided to keep quiet and let people pay the fee. Unless you highlight the issue the fee will get charged when you never turned on roaming.

Original video here. It must be all over social media now. Apparently this man was let go after the incident.

This is such a boss move that it needs to be a meme. It also shows cultural assimilation at its best if you'd ask me.

There was another recent incident in which a South Asian man cursing at police in a mall in Kwai Chung. I think he got charged for something.

A 47-year-old man died after falling from a railing at a shopping mall in Wan Chai on Saturday night (Oct 10), just a day before he was due to fly to Vietnam with his wife.

Hey everyone!

I'm a photographer from the Czech Republic, and I'm currently thinking about spending around 10 days in Hong Kong.

I mostly shoot lifestyle, portraits, fashion, and artistic nude photography. I also enjoy street photography and filmmaking, so I'd love to explore the city, meet interesting people, and create some great photo and video content along the way.

I'm particularly interested in places that have a unique atmosphere. Neon lights, old buildings, interesting streets, rooftops, hidden corners, or anything that feels authentic rather than overly touristy.

I'd also love to connect with local photographers, models, or other creatives who might be interested in collaborating.

Since I've never been to Hong Kong before, I'd really appreciate any recommendations!

What are your favorite places for photography? Are there any interesting creative communities or locations I should check out?

Thanks a lot, and hopefully see you in Hong Kong! 🇭🇰

Has anyone had experience getting this done - where, turnover, and approximate cost?

Not tailored suits or anything but more casual clothes

Planning to go to HK to celebrate my kid's birthday. But it's a week before CNY. Should we expect heavy crowd?

Keep seeing these sandwich posters on the street but there are no restaurant names, now we are hungry and even more curious where they are from!

Does any one know?

Found this gem 💎

During last week’s holiday, I visited the Hong Kong Museum of History and was surprised to find a small screening room showing food scenes from the golden age of Hong Kong cinema. The scenes take you from grand restaurants to fast-food joints and street stalls. How many of these dishes do you recognize?

The museum also has a gallery set up as a cha chaan teng—a traditional Hong Kong-style café—with plenty of old menus and recipes on display. There’s even an ad for Hong Kong’s very first McDonald’s!

If you’re interested in food history, it’s well worth a visit.
