Hong Kong Short Trip
A short work trip to Hong Kong. Most of HK seemed normal (restaurants, bars) but we did see some areas where protesters had set up barricades on a Sunday evening which complicated our taxi drivers planned route.

Day 1 Itinerary
Places visited: Hong Kong International Airport - Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong - Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong - Hong Kong Parkview - 陽明山莊 明園 - Central
Hong Kong International Airport
Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong
Located next to the IFC building in the heart of central. Easy to get walk to all my meetings from here.
There were cars that were parked in the middle of the road outside the hotel. They didn’t care because police are so focused on other issues such as the ongoing protests.
Chilling at the Hotel Pool
Hong Kong Parkview
Parkview is a Beautiful apartment and hotel complex in Tai Tam, in the mountains just 15 mins by car from Central with no traffic.
陽明山莊 明園
Ming Yuen is the Chinese restaurant that is part of the Parkview club. It is one of the best Chinese restaurants in HK in my opinion. We had the seasonal Shanghai hairy crab, only available in November/December. Delicious!
Try the jelly fish dish as well!
Central business district, Hong Kong
The unfortunate aftermath of protesters using random objects and trash to set up barricades. Heartbreaking to see what it has come to in a city I truly love. 😢
