Hong Kong 2013- Tsim Sha Tsui

~ Day Two in Hong Kong ~

~ Tsim Sha Tsui ~

   Today I decided to add to my passport. Traveled on the MTR Train from Kowloon to Hong Kong to Wan Chai through the streets of Hong Kong Island to “The Great Smart Tower” on Wan Chai Rd to successfully get….A Vietnam Visa! It's just a hop, skip, and a jump away- why not add it to the list! Contacted a friend who's from Vietnam to get some tips, got a visa, and bought a ticket. 

   After my last minute decision in the am, I spent the rest of the day exploring some of Tsim Sha Tsui's Hot Spots- Hong Kong Cultural Center, HK Museum of Art, Space Station, Science Museum, Salisbury Garden, Kowloon Mosque and Park, and Avenue of the Stars. 

   Sometimes it's nice to be a solo wanderer. And a few downpours added some spice to the day :)
