China questions

Is 4 days enough for Hong Kong?

Four days covers the main districts if you group sites by area each day. Use the MTR to limit travel time between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.

No bookings are required for street markets or night markets. Arrive with cash and visit after 6 pm for full stalls.

How do I get from Central to Tsim Sha Tsui?

Take the MTR or Star Ferry for under 20 minutes and 5 HKD. Both run frequently from Central piers and stations.

What is the best time to visit Mong Kok markets?

Visit Yuen Po Street Bird Garden in the morning, then come back to Ladies' Market in the evening after 6pm when it is busiest. Ride the MTR to Mong Kok station and walk between sites.

Is 5 days enough for Beijing?

Five days covers Beijing's main sites with time for the Great Wall. Use the metro and book Forbidden City tickets online as soon as they open, seven days ahead. The Forbidden City is closed on Mondays.
