From the Hong Kong-Macau Ferry Terminal, we again walked the bridgeway going to IFC Mall. IFC is a prominent landmark which consists of 2 skyscrapers, the IFC mall, and the 55-storey Four Seasons Hotel HK. This is the 4th tallest building the Greater China region and the 8th tallest office building in the world.
We did not spend a lot of time here because the stores are too expensive and high-end. We just ended up buying an iced cappuccino (28hkd) and a regular fries (10hkd) from McDonalds. Then we headed on back to the bridgeway to get to Central Road to ride the Ding-Ding Tram.
When we got to the Central area, we exchanged some of our money to HKD since we are running low on cash. We read on other blogs that the exchange rate in World Wide Plaza is good so we decided to head there. The building is just beside the Central MTR entrance. Look for Dai Sing Bank and the World Wide Plaza sign, the money changer is just on the second floor.
When we got there, there were still a lot of people but we still rode it to experience it at last. It was a fun ride, a bit slow, but it was relaxing to just look out the window and see different parts of Hong Kong. The fun part in this ride is that we had no idea where to get off haha, so we just decided to trust our instincts. Fortunately, our instincts were correct because we were able to get off the terminal near the Harbor Times Square in Causeway Bay.
During that time, they have a Gundam display in front of the mall which was awesome. But, we also did not spend a lot of time there because the shops are also too expensive. We just explored the shops within the area. One of our favorite is the Bonjour shop because it was cheap and there are various things for sale such as cosmetics, food, etc. After, we opted to go back to the Tsim Sha Tsui area thru the MTR to explore more shopping area there and to go to the Avenue of the Stars.
