After a day exploring Hong Kong and taking the city's cable car ride, we took the train up to Tai Po and back to see what we could see.
Hong Kong
Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is technically a part of China on the south coast.

We went up to Tai Po to find the China-Hong Kong trains that run on the line through that part of Hong Kong. There is a covered pedestrian bridge with open sides a few hundred metres from the train station that provided excellent cover for the strong, driving rain. After, we headed to Tai Wo (the next station) and stumbled across the Hong Kong Railway Museum before going back to Hong Kong Island for a tram ride.
