Almaty-Hong Kong-Hainan
From Almaty, a direct flight to Hong Kong is visa-free for citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan for 14 days. A visa to visit Hainan must be done before departure. We were in Hong Kong for 3 days and as always one day was not enough. We took tickets for a big bus tour, 2 days. Thanks to him we got to see a lot. Those who are going to Hong Kong and choose hotels - they chose for a long time, the prices were very high. We chose Novotel Central in the heart of the city, we took it a day before departure a little cheaper than the preliminary price. Initially, they looked only on the island itself. The hotel is okay, the location is good. The rooms are small. The deposit was blocked for a long time. These two features seem to be found in most Hong Kong hotels. A lot has been written about Hong Kong, read the reviews, there are a lot of Russian-speaking tourists. Features: money at the airport is worse, there is little time - take tickets for a big bus tour, there is their website, take a ticket for a booth with a transparent bottom - it is more expensive, but the queue is shorter, Disneyland - about 3-4 hours in the afternoon the parade of heroes, you can swim- there are beaches along the bus route, it's better not to take milk for children in stores - there was poisoning, carefully choose food in the restaurant - very specific, the tourist bus stop is the first at the Central station, 3 min. By taxi. If you are a little more profitable from / to the airport by express metro, if more than 2 taxis are better. Didn't like Kowloon, just shops. Go to the fire show, despite the fact that many do not write very well. Really beautiful. Try to have time to visit all the sights, they will greatly brighten up the trip. The air conditioner is strong in the subway, it blows on the ferry, a blouse is a must. Gde-that 5 days are necessary. Stores did not have time, I will not say anything. Domestic flight was taken online by Hong Kong Airlines. Hainan is a Marriott hotel, pricey but great. We caught a typhoon, I won’t wish it on anyone. Great hotel for a beach holiday. Treatment in Thais: take a spa on sunny days, otherwise there will be no hot water in the shower, if you still take herbs with you, order them in dry form in doses cheaper, be picky, otherwise they once indulged in our money there. But in general, the treatment is prophylactically not bad and be sure to try it at least once for yourself. Happy travels!
