The Goose that looks like a Duck in Sham Tseng
The Goose Statue, HK$1,200,000 / US$153,845 / Sham Tseng Hong Kong
Looks more like a duck - I am amazed the local Government paid this amount of money, essentially to promote one famous Goose Restaurant and it has been mocked mercilessly by the public at large and who can blame them.
I do private walking tours in Hong Kong and I would be happy to take you to Sham Tseng to see it + other items of interest.
Ned Kelly's Last Stand Pub in TST, Kowloon, since 1972
Ned Kelly's Last Stand
I often get requests to take people to this somewhat iconic pub in Kowloon, it is not overly expensive, the food is pub grub and just fine and at lunchtime it can be very quiet and for me a great time to visit.. I avoid at night time because they have an in house jazz band which plays at an earsplitting volume (the pub is quite small) so conversation is impossible.
Worth a visit and as a private tour guide in Hong Kong I can make it happen
The Hong Kong Cultural Centre, TST Kowloon, a decidedly ugly building
The Nike Logo Building
Do not be fooled by this lovely image, our Cultural Centre down at the waterfront is considered by Hong Kong people to be one of the ugliest buildings in Hong Kong, acoustics are world class, naturally but you have to question how and why this design was approved.
The building is just about 30 years old and frankly speaking the interior (the lobby) is really quite horrible just to compound the mistake.
The Sydney Opera House it is not! - the nearby Art Museum is undergoing a makeover and they should do the Cultural Centre as well.
I do private walking guided tours in Hong Kong and we can easily fit in a visit. oh.... from the Ocean Terminal Deck nearby the roof design looks an awful lot like the Nike logo.
The posing monkey at Monkey Hill
I hate monkeys
These nasty little buggers may look cute but they are actually very aggressive and best avoided, I have had quite a few run in's with them over the years and they are like this because morons continue to ignore the signs and feed them so they have lost all fear of humans.
Monkey Hill is actually called Golden Hill and you need a car to get there as it is at the back end of nowhere.
You have been warned.
Make me pop
Indeed Satami
Satami is a Hong Kong company and have been making lingerie and such for over 30 years but I have to say their adverts in the subway stations (MTR) are odd to say the least, I mean, what do they mean "make me pop" ?
I often wonder why they don't run these adverts past someone where English a native mother tongue language.
Oh well.
On my private cultural tours of Hong Kong you often see examples of something "lost in translation"
Oh my golly gosh, the simply amazing Pagani Zonda Absolute - this is a custom made car and is rumoured to be the only one of it's kind in the world and it is in Hong Kong!... oh... and yes, this is my picture, talk about being in the right place at the right time.
