    Stanley Market and Murray House

    Posted by joseluis 18 September 2005

    This is one of the best street markets in Hong Kong. You can find very affordable clothes and souvenirs. A beautiful and relaxed beach is part of the bargain, as are wonderful restaurants and bars. Murray House is a restored colonial building that was dismantled and moved to Stanley from its site in Centra. It houses lots of restaurants. A special mention to the Spanish Restaurant: fantastic food and service.

    South side of Hong Kong Island. Bus 6, 6A, 6X or 260 from Exchange Square bus terminus in Central. MTR to Chai Wan station Exit C and catch the green minibus 16M

    The Old Town

    Posted by joseluis 17 September 2005

    The oldest part of the town is full of history and fun. Secluded gardens and squares, and bustling pubs and restaurants. In August it holds a fantastic Medieval Fair, with food and stalls to buy a huge range of goods.

    North West Spain. Coruña has its own airport but if you travel from the UK you had better fly to Santiago de Compostela (60km away).
