Urban Explorer Series: Maggie's Travel Itinerary
“I get hugely inspired by my surroundings – whether it be going to an art museum and being inspired by an art sculpture or finding inspiration in a unique material or flower that I could use.”

With such an artistic eye for design, we ask the co-founder of The Grey Green Maggie Mak to recommend her Top 5 favourite places around Hong Kong where you can capture the stunning holiday decorations with friends and family. Find out what she suggested at the link in the bio.
K11 Musea, Tsim Sha Tsui
For the past several years, K11 Musea has done a superb job of creating a festive atmosphere during the holidays. Its decorations are absolutely unbeatable, and I love that they always play festive tunes right outside the shopping mall. Here, you can enjoy some quality shopping, capture a perfect photo moment with their Christmas decorations, or simply enjoy a stroll along the Victoria Harbour promenade. I love the vibe here!
M+ Museum, West Kowloon
This stunning museum in West Kowloon Park is beautiful during this time of year and captures the holiday spirit perfectly. You are surrounded by so many twinkling Christmas trees. I always feel so inspired when I come here, but this time of year is extra special to me.
Lee Tung Avenue, Wan Chai
No matter what holiday it is, this area never fails to impress! There are always so many creative installations here. During Christmas, you can find an array of festive lights dangling from above you. Walk a bit further to Sau Wa Fong, and you will find yourself stumbling upon their weekend market.
Toy Street, Sham Shui Po
Head to Toy Street in Sham Shui Po district to witness some of the most creative one-of-a-kind decorations. Whether it is Halloween or Christmas, the decorations here may be a bit unconventional, but it is so unique and definitely worth the visit!
Taikoo Place, Tai Koo
This area is super spacious and adorned with many festive decorations and installations. At Christmas time, the Tong Chong Street Market organised by Taikoo Place is stocked with many holiday gifts and snacks and features a string of live music performances that will put you in a happy mood. The whole atmosphere is so jovial!
