Hey Twatau, I noticed in your earlier post that you and your family were in Disneyland on 21 Nov...so did we. Did you stay in Hollywood hotel too? Maybe we walked past each other and didn't know...:)
I was staying at Mongkok Royal Plaza through out the trip. Yeah, probably we will have walk pass each other in Disneyland.
BTW, I think the street that caught fire is the picture attached, call the flower market.

I walked half the street, its similar set up like the lanes we have in peoples park, can find cheap buys like clothes that are sold in shops here but cheaper. Wide variety of costume jewellery, handbags, stuff toys, cheaper fashion clothes, luggages, handphone covers etc... quite interestingIs ladies market worth a visit? what's there?

Anybody tried going to Po Lin Monastery to see the Big Buddha via Ngong Ping cable car? I can’t figure out how to get to the MTR station to take this cable car from YauMaTei.
