It is held annually every bit usage of the Dragon Boat/ Rice Dumpling Festival. The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Chinese festival where usage of it involves feasting on rice dumplings alongside braised meat or seafood fillings. The Dragon Boat Festival inwards Hong Kong is a pretty large effect every bit in that place are dragon boat races held together with yous tin abide by rice dumplings beingness sold inwards almost every eatery, eating spot together with bakery. In Singapore, in that place isn't much of a hooha over the festival sadly. Thus, it is a rare chance to move able to participate inwards the festivities inwards Hong Kong!
And so, on a super sunny morning, aka the variety where yous volition larn a tan regardless of the total of sunblock yous slap on, my friends together with I headed out to Causeway Bay to accept omnibus no. xl all the means to Stanley Beach. It costs HKD 10 per ride. The queue was ridiculously long every bit many people were also going for the event. It didn't care that each omnibus tin solely spot xvi people. Imagine waiting for an hr spell getting roasted past times the sunlight -- non fun.
However, the trip was worth it. Look at the amazing scenery!
What's more, in that place were a bunch of gratis materials beingness handed out at the booths! Woohoo!

It was an amazing together with crazy fun trip fifty-fifty though a land of my shoulder got sunburned :(
After that, I went to Fashion Walk at Causeway Bay to cheque out the Shin Tanaka collaboration because I was curious close it. I fifty-fifty managed to run into Shin Tanaka together with got an autographed cute tote pocketbook alongside my advert on it! One to a greater extent than freebie to add together to my haul for the day!

The sense of checking out Stanley Beach is something that I volition recollect for a long while. I've been to HK quite a few times, but I've never been to Stanley Beach since my mum doesn't similar going to the seaside. This trip has definitely made me see HK from a dissimilar perspective! It may move slightly out of the way, simply create cheque out Stanley Beach, every bit good every bit Stanley Market, if you've got the fourth dimension when you're visiting inwards Spring or Summer!
Till side past times side time
