Temple Street
(In between Yau Ma Tei and Jordan) 
04March2016

There's nothing really different from this shopping street as opposed to the other streets like Ladies Market, or the road stalls parallel to Nathan road. Its pretty much the same recycled products. Art pieces, some electronic devices, trinkets, clothes and random nick-naks.
*Pictured from left, wood carved wall art, Ironman speakers and on the right some Captain America Shiled, battery packs*

There are some seafood eats at temple street as well, but will have to check out if they're of any good.
 *They quoted the spicy crab dish pictured on orange plate in the middle to be HKD200 per plate.Am looking desperately for a cheaper alternative to Under The Bridge Spicy Crab which is so good but so x (only the crab at Under the Bridge Spicy Crab is the expensive one whilst the rest of the dishes are reasonably priced)For more unique street markets, one can check out Gold Fish Market (you never know if you they are filming stuff on set), or some stuff along Antique Street.

Take a ride on the
Star Ferry 
09March2016
Take a ride aboard the iconic Star Ferry. It's dead simple. Its easily accessible with the oyster card for a small nominal charge and gets you across the bay hassle free. Although the ship timings may not be as frequent as the MTR, it does gives you an absoultey stunning view of the bay area. 

 Nightly Hong Kong Light Show at 8pm 
09March2016

*What a major disappointment. They had so much more potential but it failed big time. Off season perhaps? Show last for about 13mins. Although coincidentally the show we caught was in English, there was nothing conversed through the sound system. To be honest there was little to no highlight points throughout the visual display. Its mostly random strobes and flashes and not exactly a symphony of music. Watch movie for the full low down. Youtubing the other videos online seem to portray a slightly different picture. For you own consideration. It does however offer beautiful shots of the bay area.*

Catching the show from Kowloon Public Pier,is also located right next to Hong Kong Museum of Art and walk of stars.
