KNOW:
City Mapper - thank you CityMapper for including Hong Kong, its probably the best app to use to find your way around Hong Kong!
Jacket/Cardigan - although Hong Kong is boiling, always bring a jacket because you will catch a cold from the air-con inside!
Tissues - for some annoying reason there are never any tissues or napkins available in Hong Kong so the best thing I have learnt is to always carry a pack of tissues!
