What to do and see in Jordan / Yau Ma Tei, China: The Best Things to do

December 27, 2021 Carley Gatson

Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

MTR

Getting around Hong Kong couldn't be easier than with MTR. As MTR lines cover all major districts, it is quick and convenient to explore the whole city. There are nine commuter rail lines with easy interchange as well as a Light Rail network and high-speed Airport Express service. In addition, cross-boundary train service is provided to cities in the Mainland of China. Enjoy your Hong Kong journeys with MTR, operated by the MTR Corporation, one of the world's leading railway operators for safety, reliability and customer service.

Reviewed By TH06MAY - London, United Kingdom

Thankfully we had read up on the MTR before visiting and bought a card preloaded with $150 at the airport when we landed - total price $200 as they take a deposit for the card which is refundable when you leave together with the balance. The trains run frequently and google helpfully tells you the most efficient route from A to B so with journeys costing $6 or $10 a time it is a really quick and easy way to explore different parts of Hong Kong. The only challenge we faced was trying to select the correct exit - similar to the London Underground there are numerous exits and sometimes they’re not very well signposted

In's Point

Reviewed By travellingmip - Auckland Central, New Zealand

I don't know how I missed In's Point before in my numerous travels to Hongkong, but I am glad I have found it now and I was surprised how many levels there were. There are a lot of new toys, kitset models, figures and collectables here. There are toys that are expensive, some cheap, some market price (some do vary from shop to shop), but you don't have to spend money here; many are small second hand toys for by-gone years and hold special nostalgic value and a trip down yesteryear is a treat in itself. The shops do open quite late in the day, however, time before opening meanswindow shopping. That itself can take hours. I've put three hours for the visit, it's atleast 2 visits and it will be more than three hours total if you want to look at everything. When shops are open, there is little moving space! Some are 'poke-your-head-in-only' and some are "no turning space: walk-out-backwards". Because there can be a lot of people here, it can get hot, and bring shopping bags or an empty tote; ackpacks get in the way of everyone.

Terrible Baby - Bar, Garden, Music Room

Terrible Baby is a destination venue within the emerging Jordan neighborhood for HK’s uninhibited, burgeoning, and bold creative scene.

Reviewed By Samgreenwood09

I met here with a group of friends for drinks and we had a great time. The cocktails were delicious, staff was incredibly friendly and the atmosphere retro and cozy. They have the best outside patio I’ve been to in Hong Kong. This has turned into one of my regular bars to visit and would highly recommend it to anyone, well worth the quick MTR trip from Hong Kong Island.

Tin Hau Temple

Reviewed By TheOExpress - Hong Kong, China

...of this type of temple in HK, of which are legion. The architecture, decor and atmosphere of the temples were exactly as desired/ expected plus the pleasant, well-used gardens on either side are worth spending time as well. It is really well maintained and the last space on the right as you look at it has even been made into a nice little bookshop that sells some food. Given that it’s run for the benefit of those in poverty in the city too, I suggest you visit and donate what you can!
