Yantai university beach 🏖
Every adventurer's desire is to be at the beach.
So, if you want to go to your fantasy beach, go to
the beach next to the Yantai university. It is a
tourist attraction with several beaches, and the
weather in this location is ideal for people to enjoy
the beach life. Yantai University has a beach that
is close to the campus.
It is crowded by both residents and students who
want to spend their own time along the beach
coastlines. On the beach, there are several
activities, such as surfing. Enjoying beach life in
Yantai, China is surely worthwhile with the
wonderful view of the sand.

Metro in Moscow 🚇
❗️ There is almost a subway station at every corner of the city. You can go anywhere by subway. Because Moscow is famous for the looooong traffic jams subway is the best way to move faster especially early mornings and late evenings.
💴 Fixed price (around 50 ruble (0.84 dollar) or you can buy a card and it will be a bit cheaper (42 ruble (around 0.7 dollar).
🚉 Stations have one entrance and one exit, it’s extremely easy to navigate around.

Last HKT ride
I have no idea why but since I was a child, I always loved trams 🚋 not as much as I love airplanes but still…
When ever I am have a chance to ride a tram to get from A to B then I am 100% in! 😁
My last night in Hong Kong - I have not much to do as it is late ⏰ So, I decided to get on a tram and just enjoy the beauty of the city.
Well, I have to say that it was a great idea, I loved watching illuminated skyscrapers of Hong Kong, locals going home after a long and hard day. A couple holding hands and waiting for a tram on the station, very tired man sitting next to me, trying not to fall asleep as he definitely didn’t want to miss his stop.

Beautiful of Hong Kong Pary
The Hong Kong Park is a public park next to Cotton Tree Drive in Central, Hong Kong. It was first open 1991 and it is a true example of modern design - facilities blending with natural landscape.
The park is pretty big and it is offering a lot, you can watch birds, butterflies, there is an artificial lake which I think is the highlight of the park with its turtles 🐢
The Hong Kong Park a very relaxing place despite being surrounded by skyscrapers. In some parts of the park you can tell that you are in a huge city full of skyscrapers.
There is also a big and very well designed playground for children and when I saw it, I was a little bit jealous that I didn't have anything like that in my childhood
Hong Kong park - 10 out of 10!

Solo walk around in Dongguan
Dongguan is a small yet very beautiful city in Guangdong province of China. Yesterday I discovered the beauty of the city when I was wandering around.
Even though Dongguan is an industrial city it is offering a lot of green spaces to it’s residents and visitors. The city is located next next to Guangzhou, basically between Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Huizhou.
So, it is very convenient to drop by and travel over here for a while if you are traveling from Guangzhou to Huizhou or Shenzhen…
The city is nicknamed “the Eastern Amsterdam” but I’ll not tell you the reason why it was nicknamed like that… Go-ahead search it online 😉

Dongguan- Qifeng Park
Qifeng Park is located in the heart of Dongguan city, Huangqi Mountain and the park covers a decent area. It contains several natural and cultural landscapes such as mountain forest parks, artificial lakes, botanical gardens, Huangqi ancient temple, Huangqi mountain top lanterns, etc.
A good place for tourists to go to understand the history of Dongguan. There is a Huangqi Mountain at an altitude of 189 metres in Qifeng Park. At the foot of the mountain is the Huangqi Guanyin Ancient Temple, where during the Spring Festival,I believe there is huge tide of tourists.
An ancient well at the foot of the mountain, called "Lianquan", says - Drinking clean spring water can make people clean.
Amazing park to visit 10/10! You can get there by taxi or subway “Qifeng Park station exit E”
Address: Dongguan Dongcheng Middle
Road No.2, Dongguan City, Guangdong province, China.

The Peak - Hong Kong
Victoria Peak is located on the western part of Hong Kong Island. It is also known as Mount Austin, and locally as The Peak. It is the highest hill on Hong Kong Island with an elevation of 552 metres.
You can get there by different means, walking, bus, taxi or tram which is very unique experience, whatching all the buildings made next to the hill.
You can spend your day and night at the top of mountain ⛰️ enjoying 360° view to Hong Kong city. I wasn’t so lucky and the weather let’s say was not in my favor but I am sure that on a good sunny day the view is just breathtaking 🥲

The Peak Tram 🚋 on the way down - Hong Kong
I liked the peak tram experience so much that I descended to post another one about this unique experience. Hong Kong is an amazing city offering you numerous things, but the peak tram is very special one!
If you'll manage to take a seat on the first row, the way down will be much more exciting and the views will be even better!
The one thing that I am sure I’ll do again in Hong Kong is taking the peak tram 💯 I really hope that next time I go there the weather will be better and I’ll also fully enjoy the scenery from the peak tower🏙

Madame Tussauds - Hong Kong - The peak
Madame Tussaud’s Hong Kong. The renowned chain of wax museums founded by Marie Tussaud of France, is located at the Peak Tower on Hong Kong Island in Hong Kong.
it was my first time seeing a wax museum, it's very nice and fun. I have no idea why but I got only this 3 pics from there. Maybe I was blinded/mesmerized by all the celebrities literally standing in front of me 😅
It was a nice experience, I would recommend checking it out if you are on the peak.
Note* You can buy combo tickets that include the Peak Tram, sky viewing deck and Madam Tussaud's before you go up on the tram.

Out in Hong Kong
The one thing that I love about Hong Kong is that there is always something going on out in the city.
No matter what time of the day you walk around the city you’ll always come across something interesting.
A free concert, people singing and dancing, showing tricks and a lot of other things that sometimes you kind of what to be able to see everyone, just be everywhere all over the city and see everything.
I am sure that even at day time when everybody is busy you will still come across something like that but when the sun is gone… that is when the real fun 🤩 starts.

Hong Kong Times Square
Times Square is a luxury shopping centre and office tower complex in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong.
Definitely one of the most popular tourist spots and shopping centers. You can find any world known brand on one of the 16 floors of the shopping center.
So by going to Hong Kong Times Square you’ll get a great shopping and eating options. There are also lots of shops and restaurants outside the mall. If you’ll take MRT then station causeway bay exit A.
May be a great spot for some photos, if not interested in high end shopping and also It’s perfect for a location marker or meeting point as the clock and big screen outside can help tourists to identify the location very easily.

Evening walk around in Hong Kong
whenever I get to a new place I am always going out to walk around without any final destination…
So, like always I went out in Hong Kong and got to some amazing places like a street market which turned out to be the highest of the day.
Yes streets in Hong Kong are very beautiful but also crowded. The thing that I like the most about Hong Kong is that in the evenings on every single street you can find something interesting going on.
Just an amazing place to visit! Hong Kong ♥️

Monster Building AKA Yick Fat Build HK
Yick Fat Building is defiantly one of Hong Kong’s most popular spots for photos.
The Yick Fat Building, also known as the Monster Building, Oceanic Mansion, Montane Mansion, Yick Fat building, Yick Cheong Building. Hah yeah way too many names 😄
Well The Monster Building is actually a group of five connected buildings located in 2-32 Yau Man St., Quarry Bay, Hong Kong. I guess that is the reason why it looks like this and also why it is referred as a “Concrete Jungle”.
Even though these buildings were built in the 1960s, in recent years, the “Yick Fat building ” has taken off on social media as a prime spot to take photos for social media.
Have you visited, or are you planning to visit the Monster Building? Let me know in the comments below!

Hong Kong’s Iconic Aqua Luna Red-Sail
Spotted Hong Kong’s Iconic Aqua Luna Red-Sail when I was in the Avenue of Stars.
It is a wonderfully relaxing experience to see the Aqua Luna cruising around the harbour in the evenings when the city is illuminated.
Even though Hong Kong is on 3rd 🥉 place in my list of favorite locations in Asia I didn’t get a chance to sail in one but hey it’s a good reason to go back to Hong Kong.
Red-Sails are looking so beautiful with the iconic Hong Kong skyline 🌃
Let me know in the comments if you’ve sailed in one.

Hong Kong tramways (HKT)🚋 Ding Ding
As a huge tram lover since I was a child I truly enjoyed HKT during my stay in Hong Kong BTW not just trams but double-deck trams.😍

the park, with the unique shape on the top of the
mountain. You'll be able to see the tower from all

After visiting the Nanshan Tourism Area, we were heading towards the Nanshan south road to find a place where we can eat and the go to the train station. So we found this dazzlingly beautiful park with a lake.
My friends were too busy talking about all the things we saw at the Nanshan Tourism Area, and I was very tired after all the 360 steps up to the Buddha statue and the back. that’s why I was just walking and enjoying the beautiful nature around us when I noticed the lake and how indescribably beautiful nature is reflected on the surface of the lake.
To be honest at first I thought I was hallucinating 😄

Original our goal was to get to the Confucius Temple but unfortunately we arrived a little bit late and the trample was already closed. (8:30 AM - 5:00 PM)
So we ended up just having a nice evening walk around the area more specifically Guozijian Street. Honestly it is very beautiful over there me and my friends was wandering around the old narrow streets for about 2 hours.
Later we found a small foot massage shop and enjoy a nice 40 minutes long massage after which we were ready to walk for 2 more hours 😁
After the massage we found a nice restaurant nearby and enjoyed a nice dinner right before heading to the airport to catch our flights.
