6 days in Hong Kong - 4/9/13 -4/14/13
Day 2 - Star Ferry
After a nice cup coffee we decided to take the Ferry back to Tsim Sha Sui.
The walk from the ifc mall to the ferry is about 5 minutes.
Walk way from ifc mall toward the ferry.
Check out the Apple store. It is huge!
So many people in there! I was told that the store is always busy.
Central pier
Taking the ferry from Wan Chai to Tsim Sha Sui is really cheap Hong Kong $2.5 =.35 cents.
We took the ferry from Central to Shim Tsa Tsui (red line) which is he busiest route.
It is very convenient, fast and cheap.
Waiting for the ferry..
View of Kowloon from Central
For 30 cents you can have the best view of the Hong Kong skyline.
I was told that the same trip at night time is really a must to see the harbor at night with all the lights on.
More view of the harbor.
Getting on the ferry...
The Star Ferry is one of Hong Kong's cultural icons. These green and white ferries have been making the harbor crossing since 1898.
