Let me know what you thought of it after you came here. I'm curious. ^_^ Moisha – I think that even compared to Chicago Hong Kong’s Central is an urban extreme with one of the most impressive/intimidating skylines in the world.

A park among sky scrappers reminds me of Chicago. I can't wait to see HK for myself. Thanks for posting these pics. A park among sky scrappers reminds me of Chicago.

I honestly can't remember which is which, although I think this particular one is quite famous. I don't know, those skyscrapers intimidate me. Together with some classic urban landscape of noise and air pollution, it's a real turn-off. Even in the more remote areas of Hang Hau and Po Lam everything is skyscrapers. It's a living style here, and I find it a bit despressing. Carrie – all sorts of funky buildings around Central.

What are the buildings in pictures number 4 and 7? They're funky looking. John and I usually make a point of stopping by a few city parks to get a feel for things. Unfortunately, we never have much time to do this in Hong Kong. After seeing your photos, I'll be sure to make it a priority on our next trip. I'm glad to see you're settling into your new life.
