Shop! go for Dim Sum! and of course visit some Kung fu schools. I would probably also visit some museums or art galleries.

all that and sweat profusely in the humid heat of HK.

Hi FT,

If you are looking for some old / rare books on Kung fu, it would be a good idea to check out Cheong Shim Tang's bookshop in Central. He has an amazing selection of journals, books, videos, etc. He also sells antiques. He is a top notch Bak Mei / Lung Ying player from Chow Fook's school, and a real gentleman.

He can also help you to find other rare books if you know what you're looking for.

I've got his address here somewhere in all my clutter....

Cheers - kevin

One week in Hong Kong?
Hell, I'd probabaly end up an Opium Fiend with every venerial disease known to man and a few new ones to boot. I'd have fun though! :p

Although there are many styles, they all depend on the strong beating the weak and the slow falling to the quick. These are not related to the power that must be learned -- Taiji Classics

Golden Compter Center right outside the Sham Shiu Po MTR exit, Kowloon. Signs everywhere. Can't miss it. Bring cash :-) VCDs, DVDs and Computer software.

CS Tang's shop is good as mentioned before. For general books, go to "popular" book store. They have lot's of english books. There's one in Tsim Sha Tsui and next to it is a tailor where Al Gore, Prince Charles, and a bunch of other celebrities but I have never bought anything there so can't say how much or how good.

For a cheap lion, go to Yue Wah, just outside of Jordan MTR, Kowloon. It's a big China store. ~$200 US for some nice looking lions. Construction is only so-so but the same as the China stuff you get in the states.

Do you speak Cantonese? There are places to get better lions but at much higher costs. Small shops that don't speak english.

For food, be adventurous. The best Cantonese food in the world can be found in HK but not every place is good. :-(

Have fun.

F.t if your anywhere near a herbalist go and ask him if he has a remedy for ''LIMP-GING''But be sure he doesn't give you cat c*ck instead of tiger c*ck.
Cos baby you need that zing.
