I ♥ Disneyland - Hong Kong (2013) - 03-02-2013

Hong Kong Disneyland Even though I've been to Disney Hong Kong before, my excitement level was through the roof on this visit! There's just something magical about anything Disney that brings out the inner child in me. As soon as I stepped foot into the park, I couldn't contain my enthusiasm. I felt like shouting, "I'M IN HONG KONG DISNEYLAND!!!" It's a dream come true for me, and I couldn't be happier. Despite being the smallest Disneyland in the world, Hong Kong Disneyland remains one of the most popular destinations in Hong Kong for a reason. It offers a delightful experience for both kids, who can immerse themselves in the wonders of Fantasyland, and adults, who have the opportunity to relive their cherished childhood memories. Hong Kong Disneyland is divided into several zones, with the junction located right in front of the enchanting Sleeping Beauty Castle. On the right, you'll find Tomorrowland, while Adventureland awaits on the left. Direc

Ocean Park Hong Kong Ocean Park Hong Kong - located at Aberdeen, Hong Kong cannot be compared to Enchanted Kingdom in the Philippines because Ocean Park Hong Kong is much bigger and you won't finish visiting all the rides and amusement in one day.

First thing we visited was the Giant Aquarium, The Atoll Reef. It is a four-storey high aquarium holding more than 2,000 fish from 250 different species, including the Black Spotted Sting Ray, for which a second generation was successfully bred at Ocean Park. My eyes was filled with amazement while I walk towards the big caverns full with different species of aquatic animals. Next stop was a visit

Venetian Hotel and Resort Macau If you wanted a piece of Italy, the deluxe hotel and casino in Macau may be the perfect destination.The Venetian Macau The Venetian Macau is the 40-story, $1.8 billion anchor for the 7 upcoming hotels to be constructed on the Cotai Strip. From Sands Macua we took the bus bound to Venetian Resort and it is FREE!!!  We went there on a weekend so the crowds are denser. There were just too many people at the hotel. Of course, there were the usual gamblers, people on special organized tours, locals and people like us who were just following the crowd. After following the crowd for a good ten minutes, we finally arrived in the great hall and were greeted by a sweet pleasant voice. Everywhere we look is a replica of Venice, canals and all. I was in awe seeing the painted “venetian” sky. It’s truly breathtaking and at first glance you’d think it’s the real deal. It was an astonishing architecture. The painting on wall and ceiling painting was pretty imp
