@Trvljunky's Top Tips
"Do not rush through Sensō-ji. Spend a morning or afternoon to really take in the scene and mood of the temple."
Aside from being a place of worship, what cultural aspects make this special?
"Kimono culture is on full display at Sensō-ji. This applies to females and males. You can rent a kimono to enjoy the experience as well."
@Trvljunky's Top Tips
"Respect that this is a Buddhist temple. Do not intrude on private worship and pay attention to 'no photo' zones."
A 'MUST' whilst you're there?
What do you love most about Sensō-ji?
"While a place of worship, the energy and street scene is to be enjoyed. The road to the temple is lined with small shops to buy local gifts."

Hong Kong
Traveller: verawinter
What do you love most about Hong Kong?
"It's super diverse and has everything from skyscrapers and mountains to beaches and villages. It really is a mix of modern and traditional, and natural and urban!"
What makes Hong Kong a good travel destination?
"Most places can be reached by public transportation easily. On top of that, Hong Kong is very safe, even during nighttime."
@verawinter's Top Tips
"Make sure to leave the basic tourist areas - there are so many amazing places around the city that visitors don't usually get to see. For example, Sai Kung is a true hidden gem."
What is something special to do?
"If you can, go hiking! The trails are well kept and the views are gorgeous. There are many options to choose from based on the duration, difficulty, and location."
Must pack items for Hong Kong
"Hong Kong dollars in cash. Taxis, markets and some restaurants only accept cash, even though the city is very modern."

Why is Huashan the most deadliest hike in the world?
"With heart-stopping dangerous plank paths and incredibly narrow stairs to climb, this hike attracts adventurers from all over the world. It stands tall at 7000ft, and is perfect for thrill seekers!"
@worldandher's Top Tips
"1. Get up early 2. Map your route 3. Hike or get a cable car 4. Drink plenty of water 5. Prepare for limited English"
How much time do I need here?
"It takes 6-8 hours to hike here, or you could cable car it. You need around 30 mins on the plank there and back. The park closes at 7 pm with no option but to walk back if you miss the last bus."
Was 'The Plank' safe?
"Yes and no. You have a 180-degree drop to climb to reach 'The Plank'. The plank is narrow and you're basically relying on two ropes. However, if you go when there are fewer people (end of the day) it's fine."

What do you love most about Naoshima Island?
"If you love contemporary art and nature, Naoshima Island is the place to go because it combines both beautifully. Moreover, it has gorgeous beaches, which can't hurt! "
@vahineotaku_travels 's Top Tips
"Rent an electric bike or a scooter to have the freedom to stop at any art installation when you want to, because they are scattered all around the island, and buses are not that frequent. "
A 'MUST' whilst you're there?
@vahineotaku_travels 's Top Tips
"The tickets to the popular Chichu Art Museum tend to sell out quickly, so I highly recommend booking several weeks before your visit."

What do you love most about Kamakura?
"Kamakura is a perfect combination of beautiful temples, cool beaches, gorgeous nature and nice cafés only 50 minutes from Tokyo, so you can even plan a day trip there if you are short on time. "
A 'MUST' whilst you're there?
@vahineotaku_travels 's Top Tips
"Rent an electric bike to really enjoy Kamakura at your pace and get to lesser-known places, and research which flowers are in bloom the season you visit because their gardens are really next-level!"
Favourite time of year to visit Kamakura
"Kamakura is very famous for its hydrangea garden, so I'd recommend visiting in June when it's hot and the flowers are in full bloom. Then you can enjoy both the flowers and the beaches!"

@shelby.abroad's Top Tips
"A lot of places in rural Japan are spread out, which is not a worry when on a tour but otherwise a car is advised. Most big tourist attractions can be reached by train and/or bus, but a tour or car is the best way to make the most of your time there!"

"Renting a car is a great option to travel here as public transportation in some of the Japanese countryside is time-consuming because of the limited bus schedule. "
