Pagsasalarawan: Hong Kong

Firstly, keep in mind that Hong Kong is geographically composed of mainly four sections: Hong Kong Island (central business hub; where Ocean Park and The Peak are), Kowloon peninsula (where traditional sights are and where you would most likely stay), the New Territories and the outlying islands (including Lantau Island where the airport and Disneyland are).

Hong Kong has a highly developed and sophisticated transport network, encompassing both public and private transport. And, over 90% of the daily journeys are on public transport, making it the highest rate in the world.

The Octopus card, a smart electronic money payment system, has been introduced in September 1997 to provide an alternative to the traditional banknotes and coins. It allows payment for not only public transport but also at parking meters, convenience stores, supermarkets, fast-food restaurants and most vending machines.

Hong Kong International Airport - HKIA

Terminal 1 of the HKIA is currently the third largest airport passenger terminal building in the world (570,000 m²), after Dubai International Airport's Terminal 3 (1,500,000 m²) and Beijing Capital International Airport's Terminal 3 (986,000 m²^[17]) - Wikipedia

HKIA is equipped with a lot of Timetable screens and internet stations.
In addition, besides the wifi all over the airport, there are also a lot of shops to keep you busy while waiting for your flight = tons of shops to spend your money..if you have! xp

The airport has a total of 70 boarding gates, with 63 jet bridge gates and seven virtual gates which are used as assembly points for passengers, who are then ferried to the aircraft by apron buses. - Wikipedia

HKIA is of course linked to other transports.
Most likely, after the plane ride will be the bus ride! Give yourself, 5-10minutes to find the ticketing station. Most people take the bus to get to the city as it is the cheapest option (33HKD) which will take you to the center of Kowloon at about an hour. The more expensive alternative is the Airport Express train which costs 100HKD with 20-25mins travel time.

Surely, you won't get lost in the airport since there are a lot of information stations.

Inside the A21 bus.

People queueing for the bus. Luggage in the bus.
To note, the 360degree wheels won't do standing in the bus. It better be laid on the floor instead unless you want it moving around annoyingly and noisily!

Like anywhere else, no eating and drinking allowed inside the bus.
Parents with kids and the elderly should be given the seating priority.
So cute caricature of an old woman!

Hong Kong Taxis

Honestly speaking, we were puzzled to see old model cars as taxis in a highly urbanized place in comparison to Dubai's luxury car taxis - Camry and Altima.
The explanation below enlightened me.

Most of the taxis in Hong Kong run on LPG (liquified petroleum gas) to reduce emissions. In August 2000 a one-off cash grant was paid to taxi owners who replaced their diesel taxi with an LPG one.
Since August 2001, all newly purchased taxis run on LPG. By the end of 2003, over 99.8% of the taxi fleet in Hong Kong ran on LPG. - Wikipedia

Although the units are a bit old, the cars are still clean and efficient.
It still delivers you safely to your destination!

The Tram or Ding Ding
Locally known as 'Ding Ding', the tram has been an essential part of Hong Kong Island’s daily life for over a century. http://www.discoverhongkong.com/tramguide/eng/

A tram (also known as a tramcar, streetcar, trolley car) is a passenger rail vehicle which runs on tracks along public urban streets and also sometimes on separate rights of way.

Most trams today use electrical power, usually fed by a pantograph (a hinged electric-rod device that collects electric current from overhead lines for electric trains or trams)
in some cases by a sliding shoe on a third rail or trolley pole. If necessary, they may have several power systems.

The passenger waiting area for the tram is at the middle of the road.

The fare is HK$2.30 for adults, HK$1.20 for children under 12, and HK$1.00 for senior citizens 65 and above. Unlike most other forms of public transport in Hong Kong, there is a uniform tariff regardless of the distance travelled. Passengers pay by either depositing the exact fare in coins or using the Octopus card. -

See those black rods above the tram? That's the pantograph!

Big bus view. Notice the overpass on the left. Seldom are pedestrian crossings at the ground level. Indeed, Hong Kong is a very vertical city!!
