Description

We Hongkongers are enthusiastic about travelling and we trek around the globe. When it comes to travelling within Hong Kong though, we are simply not interested. We never consider the place our first choice as a destination, not to mention digging deeper into it.

“What does Hong Kong have to offer?” That’s our question.

In “Hong Kong Stories – Rediscover Hong Kong”, guests from various sectors and with different interests and specialties are invited to design “alternative” travel routes together with the host, for the purpose of travelling around Hong Kong in their own way. In each episode, by travelling within Hong Kong in the unorthodox way, we re-examine, relearn and rediscover Hong Kong – a place we thought we knew so well since we-don’t-know-when.
