Is it worth stopping off in Hkg for 2 day on the way home from Thailand?

sure if it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg....hk is very nice and totally different from bkk

You would need to give more details as to why you are asking this question. What do you want from these two days? Do you mean is HK too similar to BK? Or are you looking for sightseeing/shopping/food?

Yes, it is worth it. It is one of the great cities of the world.

We're doing a 2 day stopoff on our way back from Australia. I'm really looking forward to it! It's not costing us all that much more, and I'm excited about seeing something totally different. With only 2 days, I think we'll have to be fairly organized though. I know zip about Hong Kong, so I'm planning to do some research before we go.

Yes, it is worth it. We spent 2 days in HK prior to a 2 week trip to Thailand and Bali.

Hi

My wife and I went to Hong Kong for a few days last year and we were not crazy about it. But sure, it is nice to see a new city...but Bangkok is better But maybe our view of HK were influenced by the fact that we were there in March...just when SARS hit the city. I have posted a trip report with pictures from our trip to HK on my personal homepage www.gardkarlsen.com. You will also find trip reports from Thailand there by the way. Have a great trip

Hi Susan,

HK is an awesome city and you will indeed need to be pretty organized to see and do as much as possible in two days.

It's not a particularly "Chinese" city at all, but it does have its strong points.

The HK destination info on this site will give you a pretty good idea of what the local sites consist of....if you have specific types of activities that you want to pursue, the posters in this forum can help you out.
