Hong Kong, China

Hong Kong is so interesting! The culture and activities over there will keep you busy for days. One of my favorite places I visited was the Hong Kong Heritage Museum and you will not believe how wonderful it was. I was lost in that museum for hours finding an interesting fact everywhere I turned. The Avalokitesvara (Guanyin) is the most beautiful statue I’ve ever seen and I found it there.
A fun twist on culture I found there is that there is a movie theater in almost every neighborhood. And they seem to love Western movies and almost always run them in English with Chinese subtitles. I found that funny because I was in China not America. Also, it is socially acceptable over there to accept a phone call during a movie which I found rather annoying because the movie happened to be at its climax as somebody’s wife called demanding him to tell her were he was. But don’t let that stop you from coming to Hong Kong because you will have the time of your life over here.
