Matsuta Yataro said: "What travelers are most looking forward to is walking on the street without a map. Simply recording the canteens or coffee shops, bookstores, and daily necessities that pass by each day is a self-made map that they understand."

Each city has its own taste and color, and each time has a very different understanding and scenery. When I visited Hong Kong again, I lost my life in the grey sky and the cracks in the high-rises. I was greeted with enthusiasm and hopeful anger in spring, but still with a touch of sticky moisture. As a city with a strong cultural atmosphere, many large and small art galleries and restaurants gather together and follow these spaces to blend in with the distance, walk around in the alleyways and poke around where you have never seen before. Scenery Hong Kong lives on weekends.

Art Exhibitions I like very much. If you understand the key to the ART, then it becomes enjoyable.

Exactly, arts are tend to be subjective. They are worth to be appreciated on their own way.
