My mixed feelings about Hong Kong

For Hong Kong, there are really too many complex emotions. I always thought that it was a place where I could go anywhere, but I also found that, as time flies, the historical background pushes the times, and the memory and the present are always incompatible with each other. end, continue to balance.

The number of times I went to Hong Kong, I think it should be countless with a single finger. From childhood to adulthood, Hong Kong has always been the easiest place to realize the vision of "going abroad". The flight time is not far, and the price of air tickets is relatively better than other places. The problem of culture is a feeling of walking away.

In 2019, thanks to the abundance of resources, I have the opportunity to spend a period of time in Long Stay in Hong Kong, cooperate with work, and simultaneously explore that place like Taipei. It is also an interesting first-line experience, the social customs that belong to Hong Kong, and the historical experience that only exists in Hong Kong.

The interesting thing about history is that for every participant, it is an unforgettable experience that is deeply rooted in the heart, but for every bystander who is not at the scene, the experience cannot become a notch in the heart, it can only be passed. The narrative of the image, try to explore the bits and pieces of that time, that person, and that scene.

Fortunately, in the second half of 2019, I was able to stand on the boundary of history. I always felt that the core could not be touched, but the wind at the boundary was so strong that it was impossible to ignore the oncoming overwhelming. This is a very new memory point, and I know it is also an unforgettable memory point.

When I was young, I went to Hong Kong a long time ago, with my family, by myself, or in the company of my significant other. I always feel that the night view of Victoria Harbour is very beautiful. I yearn for Central with many high-rise buildings. At the same time, I know that there are Sheung Wan, Taipingshan, Hong Kong Airport and the New Territories. There are also roast meats that can't be eaten anywhere else.

The combination of food, urban style and culture has created my impression of being in Hong Kong. Also, the frightening Ocean Park cable car makes my heart twitch unconsciously when I think of it.

This is a fast-changing city, and it may be too late to keep up with people’s footsteps. The crowds of people in Mong Kok or Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui are always bustling, the office workers in Central are in a hurry, and the houses in old Hong Kong are as old as movies.

If I were to make a comment, eight words might be the best description: "The scenery remains the same, and the personnel are completely different."

Salute, 2019.7.1 The Hong Kong scenery that made me get out of the Causeway Bay MTR station and spend a lot of effort to shuttle back to my residence.
