After pleased having fun at Disneyland Hongkong yesterday, today i go to another themed park called Ocean Park.

After satisfied visiting Shenzhen yesterday, today we start walk around Hong Kong. Today i also had to move hostels from Tsim Sha Tsui to Hong Kong Island. Compared to Kowloon area, Hong Kong Island is slightly different. Kowloon area somewhat a little bit chaotic because there are too many people live there. Hong Kong Island look more modern and tidy with the buildings architecture. Having been promised to meet my friends at the hostel at 10 o’clock, i spend my morning time by stroll around Tsim Sha Tsui area. Because Avenue of The Star is very close to Tsim Sha Tsui, I was walk to go there.

The Avenue of Stars (Hongkong Walk of Fame)

The Avenue of Stars itself is a place beside the river that built based on America’s Hollywood Walk of Fame. This place is located in Victoria Harbour Waterfront in the area of ​​Tsim Sha Tsui. This place gives awards to celebrities who have contributed to Hong Kong’s film industry. Less than 5 minutes walk from the hostel, i already arrived at Avenue of Star. This place is right behind SOGO Building. In the morning, this place was visited by not too many visitors. Night will be more visitors coming to this place.

Finally this day have arrived. Unconsciously, my time to learn chinese language for a year already passed. Today i leaved Tianjin, the city where i lived for the last 10 months last year. Before i go back to Surabaya, Indonesia, I decided to travel again before returning home to Surabaya, Indonesia. The destination of travel i choose this time are Hongkong, Shenzhen and Macau. Departing from Tianjin at 6 am, I was escorted by snowfall. From my university to the airport (Tianjin Binhai International Airport) takes about 40 minutes by taxi. I use China Eastern Airlines (Shanghai Airlines) which the ticket i purchased from Expedia. For this trip, i choose a transit via Shanghai flight because of the price factor. Total price of the airline ticket from Tianjian to Hongkong (via Shanghai) just only RMB 1,180 (US$ 185.7) or about 1.7 million rupiah, compared to direct aircraft that can reach RMB 2,000. The plane left on time at 8:00 AM and arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 09:55. This airport building is really long. Just to move my baggage from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2, i must walked about almost 30 minutes.
