Trip - HK Victoria Peak and Trick Eye Museum

Today we visited the Hong Kong Victoria Peak via the tram and Trick Eye Museum.  Both of these are on top of the mountain.  We used Klook to purchase tickets that included the tram up the mountain, entrance to the Sky Terrace 428 and Trick Eye Museum skipping the line ups.  We made our way to Central MTR station in the morning and met at the meeting place.  




The tram itself was interesting, pretty slanted; it felt like you were at a 45 angle.  We spent alot of time looking out on the Victoria Peak Sky Terrace 428 deck, the highest 360 deg terrace in HK:








There was an exhibition in the hallways at the top where you can take pics:










Then we walked over to the Trick Eye Museum, where you pose in front of paintings to take pics and it gives you an optical illusion of something else.  We spent an hour here and then enjoyed ice cream for another hour...it was really hot.  Here are some fun pics:


  
   

    





  
  


  
  





   




Later that evening, we met up with my friend Sarah Wong to have dessert at Cong Sao Star Dessert 聰嫂星級甜品.  It was an easy 10-minute walk from our apartment.  They seem to specialize in durian-type desserts so we ordered 4 different ones to share.  I can't remember exactly what they were now but they were pretty tasty.
