[crzysxycl]

^^hindi pa sis. nabasa ko lang sa website ng hk dl na under renovation pa. sayang nga kasi nung pumunta kami nung 2015 ginagawa sya. tapos this year na pupunta kami uli, ginagawa nanaman haha.

[mysterioza_me]

True ginagawa pa din ang castle nitong 2018 and wala na din ang fireworks nitong magpunta kami last March. Double-whammy lol.

Hello!

For those who travelled to HK in February, what is the appropriate clothing to wear? It will still be winter season there that time, right? I would assume not as cold as Japan and Korea's winter. Di naman kailangan ng thermals? I will be going with friends for 3 days lang next year (around 3rd week of Feb) and I plan to just bring my Ultra Light Down Jacket. Wala kasi kaming checked luggage, carry on lang so need to pack light. I checked accuweather and the average temp will be around 14-18C. 

Thank you!

[Maia_Cache]

last year feb temp lowest is 7deg then through out the month is around 10deg. come april mga around 19-21deg then may pa talaga nagstart uminit ng sobra.

[travelling_daisy]

^ 7-10 deg C is quite cold for me, so maybe I have to bring pa my winter jacket.
Thanks for the reply, sis.

We've been to HK before end March to early April, medyo nasa 18-20C na yung temp nun, kaya ko na mag-shorts...

[crzysxycl]

hi sisses! bukas na alis namin.. sa mga nakapag try na ng disneyland food voucher from klook, lagi bang softdrinks ang kasama? binawal kasi sa akin ng doctor ang carbonated drinks. may ala carte kaya? 2013 pa kasi last DL ko eh.. Thank you.

[Maia_Cache]

yes its really cold in hk kapag winter, tapos hindi pa uso yung heater sa mga trains.bus and malls unlike japan or korea

[travelling_daisy]

^ We'll come prepared... magdala na lang talaga kami ng pang winter... sana di ako mag excess baggage... ang hirap magpack light pag winter/cold weather sa pupuntahan mo...
Thanks, sis @Maia_cache.

Hi mga sis.  Ano po ba mas ok dalhin php or usd in HK?

[sophiasoon]

SOS:

Nakakastress.

May naka stay na ba sa inyo sa Chungking Mansions?

Nakakatakot yung place grabe. Kaso un lang yung nabook ko last minute, paka galing naman kasi ng Air BNB ko, nag cancel a day before our stay. Nakakaiyak.

 

Sana naman okay.

[runbarbierun]

^ Please don't stay at guesthouses located in Chunking, not really recommended to stay there. I can't recommend any guest house, cause I personally never tried any pa. There are many other Airbnbs or hostels, better book another place nalang

[chicafabulosa]

Hi mga sis.  Ano po ba mas ok dalhin php or usd in HK?

If you already have USD better. But if youre planning pa change palang yung peso to USD then dalhin sa HK to change to HKD wag na sis. Just bring your peso. Sayang yung mawawala sayo na amount when you exchange your peso to USD pa then USD to HKD.  I sometimes bring peso na lang pag HK ang travel ko lalo na pag wala na akong time to go to the gank para mag withdraw ng usd.. then dun na ako nagpapalit ng peso to hkd. I was told ng mga sissies dito okay daw sa Chung King magpapalit. Normally kasi sa airport ako nagpapalit or any money changer within sa area na pinagi stayan ko Hope this helps.
