Yo, welcome to the next part of my Hong Kong series. Have been pretty busy with life lately; I have a lot of Hong Kong pictures, but I'm wondering which of them are interesting enough to share.
Would you like Tsui Wah review? Or a Tim Ho Wan review? I have this nice place in Wanchai for porridge if you are interested as well (visited only by locals). And Neptune Porridge in Wanchai? Finally, Yee Shun Dairy? So many places, I'm not too sure what would interest you people.
Anyway, I decided to share this interesting article about how to take the tram in Hong Kong. It is an interesting experience, so don't be frightened away by taking it just because you are intimidated. It's as easy as Singapore's ez-link.
Have you ever taken the tram in HK?
It is quite a useful and quick way to travel across HK island; especially from Central to Causeway Bay - saves a lot of walking. Although the MTR is accessible, often the station is buried deep underground and you have do walk tons to get to your destination. For example, Times Square in Causeway Bay is connected to the MTR, but you will have to walk at least 10 -15 minutes from the MTR stop to get to Times Square. By then, you are pretty much tired, and I doubt the older folks can take so much walking. Instead, the tram is much better because it stops very near to Times Square and saves all that walking. Plus the tram is pretty frequent and you get to enjoy the view from the top.
Without further ado, let's take a look at some pictures:
Along Central, Wanchai, Causeway Bay, you will actually see trams along the main Hennessy Road. There are quite a number of stops in between and it's not difficult to find as along you locate the tram tracks. There are various tram routes but most plough between the arterial Hennessy Road.

The tram stops at every stop, so no worry about missing the tram.
When the tram stops, you will see the driver.
