Hey Winnie, how’s your holiday in Hong Kong?
It was fantastic. I’ve spent three days in Hong Kong and the schedule was overwhelming.
It should not be your first time travelling to Hong Kong. Right?
Yes. I’ve planned to explore more down-to-earth attractions this time.
Do you mean the local tour?
That’s correct. I’ve joined some local tours by immersing myself in the culture of Hong Kong.
What were the itineraries?
I’ve joined boat trip and visited typhoon shelter, temple and old estate. They brought me different tastes of Hong Kong. I enjoyed the scenic views, the peaceful atmosphere and the rich history. I’m so glad I had this opportunity!
During the second day, I’ve taken a half-day trip to Victoria Peak. Whenever I stay in Hong Kong, I’ll take the tram to experience a range of spectacular views. The view from the top of the Peak is magnificent.
I’m aware that it’s one of the hottest sights in the world.
The night view of Victoria Harbour is truly iconic. If you travel to Hong Kong next time, please be reminded to go to the 360-degree viewing platform at the Peak. You can enjoy the breathtaking views of the city.
Sure. The irresistible night skyline cannot be missed.
In addition to the night view, I’ve visited the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum at the Peak. I’m impressed by the realistic-looking wax figures.
Are they the celebrities?
Yes. There are many renowned faces featured at different zones such as music, fashion, art, champions and more.
I’ve viewed your posts on your social media platforms.
I’m so excited to interact with my idols closely. Can you recognize them?
Yes. They look so real. Your selfies are amazing!
I’m the fan of several celebrities. It’s so cool that I can get up close with the famous singers, actors and even historical heroes. It’s amazing how realistic and immersive it is. I feel like I’m living my dream every time.
Your post related to bungee jumping is so funny. Did you try bungee jumping?
Of course not. I’m afraid of free-falling. I definitely cannot overcome the fear. The photos are just the illusion of space.
How could you do that?
They are the three-dimensional scenes with different shooting themes at the Peak. By taking the pictures, I’ve also got to know more about the festivals, places and delicacies of Hong Kong.
Wow. You can take pictures with a collection of attractions at-one-go.
Absolutely. It can save my time because they’re the must-visit attractions in Hong Kong. Such three-dimensional and interactive gallery cannot be missed.
Your photo taken for the scrambling competition at the Cheung Chau Bun Festival was fascinating.
Really? I like the photo of Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance. It’s such an entertaining visual experience.
I cannot disagree with you.
I’ve also taken many selfies at the studio for the old days of Hong Kong at the Peak.
Why is it so special?
There are over 20 designed photo booths equipped with professional studio lightings. The themes include old theatres, trams and street cooked food stall. Have you heard of Dai Pai Dong in Hong Kong?
Dai Pai Dong? What’s it?
It’s famous for its competitive price with signature stir-fry dishes. The delicious food is cooked in a wok over a large flame.
Is it a hawker store?
Yes. Due to the hygiene concerns, there are fewer stalls as new license is not issued nowadays. It seems travelling through the light and illusion world when taking the photos.
It must be welcomed by tourists.
Definitely. I’m also a real foodie. I finally came to the real Dai Pai Dong in Central. The food is super tasty. It’s a must-try Hong Kong experience.
It’s an important part of local culture. I must try it next time.
Right. It’s an old Hong Kong flavour. During the last day, I’ve squeezed my time to go to the revitalized Temple Street. There are different roadside food stalls offering Hong Kong-style snacks such as fish balls, dim sum and snake soup. They are my favourite choices.
Hong Kong’s nightlife is amazing! I had so much fun exploring the city after dark. There’s always something new and exciting to see and do. I can’t wait to go back to Hong Kong and experience more of its vibrant culture.
You’ve experienced the incredible holiday. I’m so happy for you. I would love to join you on your next trip there. Let’s start planning together and make it happen!
Having you as the partner of travel will be great! We always have so much fun together, exploring new places and trying new things. I can’t wait to see what adventures await us!
Me as well. I’ll let you know my schedule.
WITH CHINESE SCRIPT
嘿，Winnie，您在香港的假期怎麼樣？
太棒了，我在香港待了三天，行程安排得很滿。
您應該不是第一次去香港吧？
是的，這次我計劃探索更多地道的景點。
您說的是本地遊嗎？
是的，我參加了一些當地旅行團，沉浸在香港的文化中。
行程是怎樣的？
我參加了遊船之旅，參觀了避風塘、寺廟和舊屋村，它們給我帶來了不同的香港味道，我享受美麗的景色、寧靜的氣氛和豐富的歷史，我很高興有這個機會！
第二天，我去了太平山半日遊，每次在香港逗留時，我都會乘坐纜車去體驗一系列壯觀的景色，從太平山頂上看的景色非常壯麗。
我知道它是世界上最熱門的景點之一。
維多利亞港的夜景真是標誌性的，如果您下次去香港旅遊，記得去太平山頂的360度觀景台，欣賞城市的壯麗景色。
一定，令人難以抗拒的夜景是不容錯過。
除了夜景之外，我還參觀了山頂的杜莎夫人蠟像館，蠟像的逼真程度給我留下了深刻的印象。
他們是名人嗎？
是的，於不同的展區有許多知名面孔，如：音樂、時尚、藝術、優勝者及更多展區。
我在您的社交媒體平台上查看過您的貼文。
我很高興能和我的偶像近距離互動，您認得他們嗎？
認得，它們看起來很逼真，您的自拍照太棒了！
我是好幾個名人的粉絲，能和著名歌手、演員甚至歷史英雄近距離接觸真是太酷了，太真實及身臨其境了，每次都感覺自己在實現自己的夢想。
您的笨豬跳帖子太有趣了，您嘗試過笨豬跳嗎？
當然沒有，我害怕直衝的感覺，我絕對不能克服恐懼，照片只是空間的幻覺。
您怎麼能做到這一點？
它們是於山頂不同拍攝主題的立體場景，透過拍照，我也了解了更多香港的節慶、地方和美食。
哇哦，您可以一次性於一系列的立體景點拍照留念。
絕對是的，可以節省我的時間，因為它們是香港必去的景點，這樣的立體互動畫廊不容錯過。
您於長洲包山節搶包山比賽中拍攝的照片非常精彩。
真的嗎？我喜歡大坑舞火龍的照片，視覺體驗非常有趣。
我非常同意您的觀點。
我也在山頂的留影館拍了很多自拍照，回憶香港的昔日時光。
為什麼這麼特別？
超過20個精心設計的場景，配備專業攝影棚燈光，主題包括舊戲院、電車、街頭熟食攤位等，您聽過香港的大排檔嗎？
大排檔？這是什麼？
它以具有競爭力的價格和招牌炒菜而聞名，美味的食物是在炒鍋中用大火烹製的。
是小販店嗎？
是的，出於衛生考慮，現在已沒有發出新的大排檔牌照，攤位也少了很多，透過拍照彷彿穿越到了光幻世界。
大排檔一定會受到遊客的歡迎。
肯定的，我也是一個真正的吃貨達人，最後我去了中環真正的大排檔了，食物超級好吃，是香港必嚐的體驗。
這是本地文化的重要組成部份，下次我一定要嘗試看看。
對了，就是老香港味道，於最後一天，我擠時間去了一趟煥然一新的廟街，路邊有不同的小吃攤，有魚蛋、點心、蛇羹等港式小吃，它們是我最喜歡的選擇。
香港的夜生活太棒了！天黑後探索這座城市非常有趣，總是有一些新的、令人興奮的景點和活動，我迫不及待地想回到香港，體驗更多充滿活力的文化。
您感受了令人難以置信的假期，我為您感到高興，我很樂意和您一起參加您的下一次旅行，讓我們一起開始計劃並實現它！
有您作為旅行夥伴真是太棒了！我們總是在一起玩得很開心，探索新的地方，嘗試新的事物。我迫不及待地想看看有什麼冒險活動在等著我們！
我也是，我會讓您知道我的時間表。
