Hong Kong has secured its position as one of the most affordable cities for public transport fares, according to the Global Transport Index survey conducted by expat insurance agency William Russell.
While ranking fifth in terms of affordability, Hong Kong's transport network is praised for its reliability and accessibility. In the survey, Hong Kong's average public transport ticket cost was HK$1.22 (around US$0.16).
Hong Kong's rail system has been applauded for its reliability and ability to cater to the city's growing population. Although it does not operate 24/7 like other cities, such as New York and Tokyo, it diligently fulfills the transportation needs of Hong Kong's residents.
While Hong Kong is only considered average in terms of eco-friendly transport options, it excels in hosting 58,754 electric vehicles per 100,000 people in its city borders. The city boasts many electric vehicles, showcasing its commitment to reducing emissions and embracing sustainable transportation.
The best city for public transportation in the world was ranked, with Paris scoring 10 out of 10 points, followed by Stockholm, and then Hong Kong. Only Buenos Aires, Tehran, Rio de Janeiro, and Singapore had cheaper ticket fares than Hong Kong.

For many families, visiting Hong Kong Disneyland is more than just a trip – it’s a milestone. It’s where little ones get to meet the characters they love, experience the magic of fairy tales, try iconic Disneyland treats, and create core memories with loved ones. However, a visit to this enchanting destination can also be a source of stress, especially for parents juggling the young ones’ needs while trying to make the most of the park’s attractions.
If you’re planning a trip to Hong Kong Disneyland with babies and kids, preparation is key. From understanding ticket prices to knowing the height requirements for rides, we’ve got tips to help you make your family outing smooth and unforgettable. Be guided by some reminders below:
Visiting Hong Kong Disneyland: Plan Ahead
When planning your HK Disneyland visit, make sure you check weather websites for forecasts. Hong Kong can get hot and humid so make sure you bring hats and fans. You can also download the Hong Kong Disneyland Resortofficial mobile app so you can look into park hours, review maps, and locate the attractions you want to visit.
Take note of these must-dos before your trip:
Buy tickets in advance
You can book online to avoid long queues at the entrance and take advantage of discounts and bundles. Ticket prices vary depending on the Tier Level. General admission tickets are priced from HK$669 to HK$939 per person. Children aged 3 to 11 and seniors aged 60 and above can enjoy a discounted ticket price of around HK$639. Kids under 3 years old enter for free. For families planning to visit frequently, the park also offers two-day passes and Magic Access memberships. Be sure to check the official Hong Kong Disneyland website for promotional offers, as discounts and packages for families are often available. Don’t forget to note the validity date of your tickets.
Plan your visit and note the attractions
Attractions like "It's a Small World," "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh," and "Dumbo the Flying Elephant" are perfect for little ones. Maximize the app and check if there are character meet-and-greets as well.
Pack smart!
Bring essentials like diapers, baby wipes, formula/milk, snacks, sunscreen, and a change of clothes. Lightweight strollers are a must or you can rent one at the park.
Once at the park, you can also take advantage of Hong Kong Disneyland’s family-friendly amenities such as:
Baby Care Center: Located on Main Street, U.S.A., the Baby Care Center provides a comfortable space for nursing and diaper changes. Facilities include a nursing room, diaper-changing stations, highchairs upon request, and access to a refrigerator, microwave, and hot water for preparing baby meals.
Companion Restrooms: To make restroom visits easier, the park features six Companion Restrooms where parents and kids can go together, avoiding any inconvenience.
Stroller Parking: Convenient stroller parking areas are available near major attractions. Simply leave your stroller with a Cast Member, enjoy the attraction, and retrieve your stroller with the provided parking ticket.
Safety is a priority at Hong Kong Disneyland, and height restrictions are in place for certain attractions. For example, rides like Hyperspace Mountain and RC Racer require riders to be at least 102 cm tall, while the Iron Man Experience and Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars have a minimum height requirement of 112 cm. Don’t worry if your little ones don’t meet the height requirements — there are plenty of kid-friendly options they can enjoy.
You can also catch shows like "Mickey and the Wondrous Book" or the evening fireworks are relaxing ways to keep kids entertained without standing in line.
A full list of height requirements is available on the park’s website or at the entrance of each ride, so you can plan your itinerary accordingly. You can also review all the attractions online.
The Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique for Little Princesses
For young princesses-in-the-making, the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is an experience not to be missed. Located in the castle area, this enchanting salon transforms little ones into royalty with beautiful costumes, hairstyling, and accessories. Packages range from simple hairstyling to full transformations with princess dresses, tiaras, and keepsake photos.
Appointments at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique are highly sought after, so booking in advance is recommended to avoid disappointment. Be sure to check the age requirements and available time slots on the HK Disneyland website.
Navigating the park with young children can be tiring, but Hong Kong Disneyland makes it easier with stroller rentals. Here’s what you need to know:
Rental Location: Strollers can be rented at the old-time firehouse next to City Hall on Main Street, U.S.A. They are for in-park use only and cannot be taken outside or used on Main Street vehicles and trains.
Pricing:
Stroller: HK$150 per day (HK$90 for eligible guests with disabilities).
Rain cover or stroller lock: HK$50 per day each.
Deposit: A refundable deposit of HK$100 per item is required and can be redeemed when all items are returned with the rental ticket by the end of the day.
Availability: Rentals are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and reservations are not allowed.
With a bit of planning and the right information, a trip to Hong Kong Disneyland can be as magical as it is memorable. Visit the Hong Kong Disneyland website for more information. Follow them on Instagram to stay updated.

Once a crowded maze of towering buildings and bustling streets, Kowloon Walled City was like no other place in Hong Kong. What started as a small military outpost in the 1660s eventually grew into a chaotic yet thriving community, earning its reputation as a "city within a city."
Today, this once-infamous enclave has been transformed into the peaceful Kowloon Walled City Park, offering a glimpse into its fascinating history. Curious about how this unique settlement came to be and what you can explore there now? Let’s dive in!
Early Days: From Fortress to City
Website/Kowloon Walled City Park Leisure and Cultural Services Department
The story of Kowloon Walled City began after the First Opium War (1839–1842). When Hong Kong Island was handed over to Britain, the Qing government built the Walled City to keep a strategic foothold in the region. Expanded after the Second Opium War (1856–1860), this fortress was China’s way of standing its ground during a time of shifting powers.
A Unique Place in History
Kowloon Walled City was unlike anywhere else. Sitting in British-controlled Hong Kong but under Chinese jurisdiction, it existed in a legal grey area. This made it a magnet for squatters, refugees, and anyone seeking to live off the grid. Over time, it became a bustling community with narrow alleyways and densely packed buildings, earning the nickname "City of Darkness" due to its reputation for crime and chaotic living conditions.
Website/Kowloon Walled City Park Leisure and Cultural Services Department
Goodbye Walled City, Hello Park
By the late 1980s, the government decided it was time for a change. Residents were compensated to move out, and by 1994, the Walled City was completely demolished. In its place, the serene Kowloon Walled City Park opened in 1995, transforming the once-chaotic enclave into a green space celebrating its colorful history.
What You Can Find at Kowloon Walled City Park
While the Walled City itself is gone, its legacy lives on in the carefully curated Kowloon Walled City Park, which offers a vibrant blend of history, culture, and relaxation. Divided into unique zones, the park is an ideal place to visit for a leisurely day out while soaking up some fascinating stories of the past. The best part? Admission is free! Here are some of the areas you can check out when you visit:
Yamen Building:Once the administrative heart of the Walled City, the restored Yamen Building now hosts exhibitions that bring its incredible history to life.
Eight Floral Walks: These picturesque pathways, named after different flowers, provide a serene walking experience and are perfect for nature lovers.
Chess Garden: Love a good game? The Chess Garden features giant Chinese chessboards set in a serene environment, perfect for a friendly match.
Garden of Chinese Zodiac: Spot your zodiac animal among the stone statues scattered throughout this whimsical garden.
Garden of Four Seasons: Each corner of this garden bursts with seasonal blooms, offering an ever-changing palette of colors all year round.
Mountain View Pavilion: Climb up this two-story pavilion for sweeping views of the park — a must for Instagram-worthy shots!
Six Arts Terrace: With its romantic Chinese-style garden layout, this spot is a hit for weddings and dreamy photoshoots.
Whether you’re looking to relax in its tranquil areas or learn more about Hong Kong’s history, the Kowloon Walled City Park offers something for everyone. It stands as a testament to the transformation of a once infamous settlement into a beloved public space.
Check out their website for updates and more details.
Opening hours: 6:30 AM to 11 PM (Daily) | 10 AM to 6 PM (Exhibition Rooms)
Admission Fee: Free
