Hong Kong Nightlife – From Movies to Bars and Relaxation

The Hong Kong nightlife is one grand party you simply cannot miss and which does not stop. You will not be able to resist what the streets of HK have to offer you during these hypnotic nights.

Every evening after I had moved to Hong Kong after I came home from work, I would go out for enjoyment. It could be dinner from almost any country in the world, incredible malls to walk through, awesome bars, lounges to simply relax after a long day in factories. And for me, it was the gym. I loved going to the gym at night.

Night Tour

For those folks who are not new to the streets of HK, you really know how to party, for those who are new, the night tour is one of the best ways to take the party up a notch. Grab a tour of the beautiful streets or even the sea.

You can avail any one you wish to and enjoy wonderful sightseeing, as you gorge on the most elegant and tempting flavors of HK. Catch a ferry from the harbor if you want the most mouthwatering seafood ever, and enjoy a candlelight dinner while watching Hong Kong glisten.

Bars & Pubs

It is time to get your chilled glass and head on to the energetic, vibrant, and lively atmosphere. Many of the famous bars and pubs are on the east side of HK, which are quite famous for their popularity as they give you what you came here for, a break from daily life.

Become the ultimate Hong Kong nightlife icon while you enjoy delicious grub, branded beer and drinks and learn more about the locals by socializing with them.

Be sure to check out Lan Kwai Fong (westerner heaven) if you’re in the mood for a never ending party of drinking, food, dancing all night long.

Clubs & Discos

A big part of the Hong Kong nightlife is you can take your pick from any two flavored nightclubs. Either enjoy the west in the east, or go for the Chinese culture. The western themed clubs are the main attractions for the tourists and western citizens, whereas the Chinese clubs are occupied with Chinese people who have turned them into the liveliest places you will ever see.

You can go out with your family, or even have business meetings in these clubs and discos, while enjoying the best dining packages HK has to offer.

Cinemas

Amazingly, Hong Kong has a rich history with cinema as well. They are the world’s third largest film producers followed by Hollywood and Bollywood. Over 100 screens around the world portray Chinese films, which are jam packed with love, action, mystery, seduction, thrills, and much more.

You will fall in love with concepts, stories, and will be tempted to watch them multiple times. Just make sure you see one with English subtitles if you are not proficient in the local language. It’s a great way to enjoy the Hong Kong nightlife scene.

Malls & Parks

There is no end to the fabulous Hong Kong nightlife and the party on the streets. To add more in the experience, be sure to head to the malls and parks. With over thousands of shops, brands, and products, your shopping experiences will change completely.

Find what you are looking for all under one roof while actually enjoying it. After you are finished shopping, head to the food courts which have so much for you to choose from. You will seriously get confused by looking at the menu, no doubt. After you have shopped, and filled your belly, take a walk in the park.

The beautiful scenery and Hong Kong nightlife will leave you astonished, and the peace will bring you comfort.

Enjoy!

Summer in Israel – Fun For the Whole Family

Summers are always special with kids around, and the energy of the moment takes you back in a time machine to your own childhood. Having said that, I have seen at close quarters how parents get wooly eyed from trying to figure out the perfect activity for their kids, and I realize that the issue can be quite pressing. So, summer in Israel has so many things to offer!

Not if you remember what summer meant to you as a kid, though. Summer is, was, and always will be outdoors, and you can relax if you are willing to let them go.

Summer in Israel – Young Boys and Girls and the Sea

With so many beaches around, you don’t really need to ask where to take them. The Shavei Tzion beach near Nahariya, the Achviz beach, Dor beach in Carmel, Beit Yannai beach near Caesarea, Palmachim beach, the Accadia beach in Herzliya are some of the beaches I recommend for a family outing.

Fun, and frolic is always at its best on a beach when one is young. Take them now, and they will remember it forever.

Summer in Israel – Zoos are Always Happening

The zoo is another place where you can safely take your kids any day, and they will love it, like we did. It’s only when we grow up and have kids of our own, and we have to take them that we tend to find the idea not so hot. But that’s a long way off for your kids, and till then it’s unanimously appealing.

My young nephews and nieces absolutely love the Tisch Family Zoological Garden in Jerusalem. It has a train running around its grounds, and a petting zoo as well that always fascinates the tiny tots.

Summer in Israel – Race the Wind on Ice

Kids love to do things which they think are anomalous. That’s why the ice skating rinks in Israel are always heavily rushed in summer. It is a great way to beat the heat outside as well.

The Canada centre in Metulla (north Israel), has one. Ice Space in Eilat, and Ice Peak in Holon are quite popular as well and make for a truly unique experience of summer in Israel.

Summer in Israel – Discover Australia in Israel

Gan Garoo, the natural park in Beit She’an Valley is a mini Australia safari with kangaroos, cockatoos, flying foxes, kookaburra, cassowary, wallaby, and emu trotting around in a home away from home. The kangaroos love to be hand-fed and were an instant hit with my nephews and nieces (and their parents too!).

Summer in Israel – Show them How to Surf

Israel is one of the best places in the world for your kid to get a taste of surfing. You don’t need to research about surfing schools-all of them are equally capable, and the one that is nearest to where you are putting up would do nicely.

The next step is of course river rafting, but for that you have to have adolescents. Rafting in the river Jordan is an all time popular activity. If your kids are ready for it, then they are going to have an experience of a life time.

Family Time in Summer

Volunteering is very popular in Israel, and during the summer families can be seen volunteering at the national food bank, eco villages, soup kitchens etc. It is a great way to bond with each other in a fun way.

Whichever option you come up with, just be sure that your kids don’t veto it with “we did that last summer”, and summer in Israel will rock.

Oh and when you find yourself in Jerusalem, be sure to read my article here on the amazing discoveries you and your family can make together!

Enjoy!
