NO. I would advise against it. the hk disneyland sucks big time. they only have 3 of the 5 areas, their parades are not as nice, and their rides are all smaller/lesser versions of the original rides but the queues are just as long as in the other disneylands ... ... and the price is not much lesser than going to a full-fledged disneyland some more... i feel it's better save up the money to go to the real deal

Yes..
Tung Chung there got plenty of factory outlets that sells sports & other products too..
The price is relatively cheaper than what u saw in SG..

For more fashion & trendy clothes, u can head down to Prince Edward (太子) station, after exiting the station look for a build named Allied Plaza..

In this building, there are plenty of shops that sell trendy clothes (Japanese style) somehow similar to bugis street & HMV's heeren..

I just came back !
I recommend you to go to OCEAN PARK. Its a very nice theme park. Nv ren jie is a nice place to shop. Remember to bargain oh !
Avenue of stars is a nice placee too !

Take the ferry ride to macau (serious motion sickness !) and can go to the casinos there. Lisboa casino is quite popular there.

Liars will always be liars.

yah, ocean park is good, i loved it the 1st time i went like 5 years ago.... it's too bad, that that sub-standard disneyland is stealing its customers =(

hey, last year when i went to HK, i didn't go in but i noticed there was a huge portion of ocean park under renovations. Is it finished? what new things do they have?

Just get one of those multi country plugs that'll cover you practically everywhere you go.
