Double Decker Trams to Happy Valley
For getting around Hong Kong I got a 3 day train pass which included return travel on the airport express so getting around was easy enough.
Hong Kong is made up of a peninsula of land jutting off mainland China and a number of Islands surrounding.
I went out to Lantau Island to check out the biggest bronze Buddha in the world. It was so foggy though that you could not see the top of Buddha, even from the base.
From there I got the train to Hong Kong Island. From here I got a tram going to Happy Valley. I had not intended to do so, but if you see a double decker tram that says it's going to Happy Valley how could you not get on it. At 2HKD that's a pretty good value tram. Happy Valley is the home of The Hong Kong Jockey Club and its world famous racecourse.
