Mong Kok, HK

We were free and easy on our first night (23 Nov) in Hong Kong. So we decided to explore Mong Kok. We took the MRT from Tai Wo Hau.

4 main roads at Mong Kok:
Sai Yeung Choi Street south

Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people.
