HONG KONG – Nature in Hong Kong and a delicious snake soup (#TBT)

Hong Kong - Snake Soup

#TBT [ThrowBackThursday] week 42 of 2015. This week, something I remember from my visit to Hong Kong, 1 of the 52 countries I visited prior to 2015.

Hong Kong surprised me first of all because it has so much more to offer besides skyscrapers. Even on Hong Kong Island you find nature. I walked there the Hong Kong water works trail which is amazing; away from the bustling streets of downtown. The North Territories offer a wide range of heritage walks through the past. If you visit Hong Kong do not miss out on the beauty beyond the skyscrapers!

Hong Kong has nature; and its good!

I travelled with my son and he wanted snake soup. After a short google search we found what supposed to be the best in town. We grabbed a cab and went. Minutes got half an hour when we arrived in some suburb and we got dropped at a corner of a street. Google maps said it was just 50 meters ahead but when we arrived they were just closing. A bit disappointed we told them we came all the way for snake soup and guess what? They fired up the furnace and got us some delicious snake soup! Thank you!
