小後記:上次去了麥理浩徑的觀景點,這個位於更高的位置,雖然需要多一點的體力,風景也是更開揚了。這邊的夜景跟日落更是很多香港情侶拍婚照的地方,絕對絕對值得帶另一半去感受一下浪漫的香港。
因為荃灣站附近的天橋四通八達,連接著各個商場。最適合看完風景就可以到荃灣吃吃喝喝。8咪半的IKEA、路德圍掃街吃街邊小食、重有南豐紗廠飲手工啤。
Little feedback: We went to the MacLehose Trial 9 during our last visit, this viewing point located at a higher altitude (offering a much better view). Although it costs a little bit more efforts, but the view is definitely worth visiting. The night view and sunset here at the Tai Mo Shan is also a popular location for wedding photos (That’s just how pretty this viewing point is). If you want to expereince the romantic part of Hong Kong, this will be the place.
Since the Tsuen Wan station has a bridge that is well-known as the bridge that can leads to everywhere, including different shopping mall. This location is perfect for a one-day trip, starting with a small hike, then coming back to Tsuen Wan and have a small shopping/dinner break, including a huge Ikea, street foods in Lo Tak Court, or even the artistic The Mills for a local beer.
