A Stroll Around Hong Kong Part VI, Tsim Sha Tsui
Tsim Sha Tsui's a place that I always visit at least once whenever I'm in Hong Kong on business. Probably because of the view there....
A Stroll Around Hong Kong Part IV, Import Goods
Sogo is one of them at Causeway Bay which is a Japanese department store complete with elevator ladies and all the other customs you would expect from Japan after watching all those J-dramas and Anime....

Perhaps that's why you can still feel safe and at peace while walking around the streets close to midnight without worrying about neds threatening you with baseball bats or drunks smashing bottles about you....
A Stroll Around Hong Kong Part II
One of the things about Hong Kong is there are fairly much at least one single shopping plaza at each underground station.
