Ask any Hongkonger and they will tell you that Leslie Cheung is one of Hong Kong’s lost gems, with debonair charm and striking presence, heightened by a baby-faced sweetness. This musical and film legend is also a major queer icon and was open about being bisexual in a time when ideals were more conservative. It’s been over 20 years since the singer-slash-actor passed away and so, to pay homage to ‘Gor Gor’ (a loveable nickname Leslie Cheung is often referred to), we’ve gathered a few of the most iconic films he has starred in over the years.

Nestled along Hong Kong's northern coast, Sha Tau Kok is a little border town that shares a boundary with Shenzhen's Yantian District. For decades, it has been a part of the Frontier Closed Area, meaning access was tightly controlled and off-limits to non-residents. But now, its veil of mystery is slowly lifting, and folks with the proper permits can venture out to explore this once-isolated village. Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or just simply want to enjoy a day of relaxation and discovery, read on to see why this place is well worth a visit.   Jump to a section: EAT / DO / SHOP / LANDMARKS What is Sha Tau Kok known for? The most unique part of Sha Tau Kok is undoubtedly Chung Ying Street, a singular thoroughfare that straddles the border between Hong Kong and Mainland China.

Mooncakes have long been a Mid-Autumn Festival staple in Hong Kong, symbolising reunion and tradition among family and loved ones. But not everyone is a fan, as this local pastry has landed on a not-so-flattering list: TasteAtlas’ 100 Asia’s worst-rated foods. Having sparked some heated debates among locals after being (unjustly) named one of the world’s worst foods, it seems that mooncakes still aren't winning any hearts – or stomachs, for that matter – as it was placed as the 20th worst Asian food on the list. Using 189,858 recorded ratings up until March 20, 2025, from its global audience (with 99,790 verified as legitimate), TasteAtlas compiled the list based on the ratings of the TasteAtlas audience, especially those that the system recognises as knowledgeable. While some extreme dishes like Thailand's fermented fish entrail curry (#1) and deep-fried silk worms (#2), or even Cambodia's fried spiders (#5) may induce more fear than appetite, other more familiar Asian dishes also made their way to the list, including Japan’s rice burgers at number 6 (we know, we’re just as confused as you are); Duck’s head (#15) from Wuhan, China; Balut (#18) from the Philippines, and South Korea’s beondegi (steamed or boiled silkworm) at number 19. Surprisingly, some of Hong Kong’s more notoriously challenging foods that would have been a far better fit on the list, like century-old eggs and fermented tofu, were nowhere to be found.

Well, it’s official: we’re a miserable bunch. The UN’s World Happiness Report has just been published and it looks like Hong Kong is on a slippery slope, declining once again from last year’s 86th place to now 88th out of 147 countries. Since 2016, the World Happiness Report has been published on International Day of Happiness (March 20). This year, the ranking looked at 147 countries based on factors such as the GDP per capita, healthy life expectancy, freedom, social support, generosity, and perceptions of corruption. Taking the crown for the eighth year in a row is Finland, followed by Denmark, Iceland, Sweden, and Netherlands in the top five. Looking over at our neighbours, Taiwan leads the pack at 27th place, while Singapore sits at 37th. Thailand lands at number 49 this year, with Japan and Korea ranking 55 and 58 respectively. Hong Kong slips to 88th, dropping two places down from last year’s 86th with a score of 5.491 out of 10. The annual ranking also examined six measures of benevolence, evaluating counties based on acts such as donating, volunteering, and helping a stranger. According to the report, Hong Kong ranks 43 in making donations – so, we’re grumpy but still kind. Sounds about right. Here are the 50 happiest countries in the world right now: Finland Denmark Iceland Sweden Netherlands Costa Rica Norway Israel Luxembourg Mexico Australia New Zealand Switzerland Belgium Ireland Lithuania Austria Canada Slovenia Czechia United Arab Emirates Germany United King

Hong Kong’s dining scene just got a little sunnier with the opening of Servo, a new casual eatery inspired by Australia’s iconic 'servo' pit stops (that's Australian slang for a place to stop and refuel). Brought to you by The Arcane Collective – helmed by culinary heavyweights Shane Osborn, Michael Smith, and Didier Yang – Servo is all about fresh, bold flavours served with a side of Aussie charm.

If you’ve strolled along the Central harbourfront recently, you might have noticed a pair of giant hands and an empty hood beckoning you to step inside a boarded-up metallic space. No, it’s not a sci-fi movie set – it’s Upward, a cool (and just a tad creepy) new outdoor exhibition by Chinese sculptor Huang Yulong launched for Hong Kong Arts Month. Photograph: Jenny Leung What’s up with these white faceless sculptures? Created by renowned contemporary Chinese artist Huang Yulong, and presented in partnership with Great Entertainment Group, these sculptures celebrate optimism, youth, and the future. Known for his signature hooded figures, Huang blends hip-hop, street culture, and urban commentary into his work, creating pieces that feel both familiar and thought-provoking. This exhibition, his largest outdoor showcase yet, features more than 20 giant sculptures gazing upwards at the Hong Kong skyline, symbolising a bright future ahead. According to the artist, the sculptures are faceless as he did not want to assign specific traits or characteristics. This intentional ambiguity leaves them open to interpretation, allowing viewers to project their own meanings onto the figures and focus instead on the postures and emotions conveyed by each piece. Photograph: Jenny Leung Where are the sculptures located? The sculptures are located right next to the Hong Kong Observation Wheel and AIA Vitality Park, transforming the harbourfront into an open-air art gallery. The exhibition run
