It’s all about the timing
When it comes to summer months in Hong Kong, the weather is absolutely balmy and its as hot as a furnace. The high temperature along with downpours and typhoons make summer time an unfavourable time to visit. The ideal time could be mid-October to December when the temperatures are cooler.
Transport
When it comes to travelling in Hong Kong, things couldn’t get much easier with the Octopus card around. This can be used to pay for rides on the tram, ferries and even a few taxis. Uber is a good option too.
Places to stay
Hong Kong has accommodation facilities available for every type of traveller. For those who prefer a comfortable stay over budget, many a Hong Kong boutique hotel the likes of Cosmo Hotel Wan Chai Hong Kong are available. Hostels or homestays are possible too for the backpackers.
Things to know
It is important that you’ve got cash in hand at all times as most restaurants, especially do not accept credit cards. Wondering about the weather? In short, July is the hottest month while January is the coolest.
