Tip from Content Creator
Want to experience a fun activity in Hong Kong? Take a 12-minute drive to Cup Noodles Museum Hong Kong. There are three different workshops to choose from, and we chose the “Create your own cup noodle” one (as it was cheap and only for half an hour). We got to decorate our own pot of noodles and choose what flavours and toppings we wanted in it. After our designing time was up, we headed over to the making station and they made our noodles right in front of us. Then, they signed, sealed, and delivered the cups right back to us too! We ate these the next day and, honestly, I might have to become a cup noodle chef because the noodles I made were so delicious!
We’d totally recommend visiting here! However, be aware that this is more an experience than a museum. Other than the workshops, a gift shop, and a brief history of the noodles, there wasn’t much else to see. It's just a fun way to spend about an hour, half an hour of it designing your own cup noodle pot, and a great way to get a cheap meal for later on in the week!

From this hostel, take a 15-minute drive to Garden Hill, which is like a second location for good views of the Hong Kong skyline. It is a lovely place located in Sham Shui Po District that tourists do not know of. Although it's in the city center, it's quiet, so you can just enjoy the surroundings.
