    The New Territories are definitely worth the trip, food is very much cheaper there. Victoria Peak is absolutely stunning, I've seen it twice - at night and day time. Yes, numerous lemon teas and Pocari Sweat are required per day in the summer humidity. Bacardi not recommended until fully hydrated though 😅

    The New Territories were definitely really cool to explore, I would love to see more of them next time. Hopefully in the future we can hike up in the mountains and see the views from there. Haha, and definitely would prefer the dong ling cha to the Bacardi. Thanks for watching!

    “Longan” (depending on the transliteration) means “Dragon Eye” in Chinese. The tree is very popular and widely grown for fruits in southern China known as Lingnan region. Those around that Castle Peak monastery should be of a different cultivar from those in farms around Southeast Asia countries such as Thailand. Longan available in the U.S. could more be, speculatively speaking, along the lineage of the Thai cultivars.

    Simply AMAZING! I enjoyed it very much. All of you guys made me chuckle a couple of times. Loved everything from the Buddhist temple hike to the late night Dim Sum. But my personal favorite was the night view of the entire city, it looked so futuristic. It kinda reminded me of Aku City from Samurai Jack. Anyways, very cool blog, looking forward to the next!
