Harbour Run

I think one of my favourite things to do in Hong Kong is go running along the harbour. (Actually it's up there with the custard bun dim sum.) From where i live there are two ways to run along the harbour - one is towards Tsim Tsa Tsui promenade, and the other is towards whompoa in Hung Hom. The first way is ok, but can be quite crowded and although the view is spectacular it goes paralel to the road, so there is alot of fumes.

The other way is lovely, because it's cut off from the road and really quiet. There are people fishing and lots of old people going for an evening walk. If you look to the left you see the backs of apartments, but if you look to the right then you get an awesome view of central, and get to see the 'bank of china' building doing its flashy light thing. and sometimes there's even a breeze, which seems rare in Hong Kong.
