TST East Waterfront

This has to be one of the most beautiful waterfront strolls that you can have with your date in the evening. I would say that though it does not have the sidewalk restaurants like those along the river in Singapore, it has the view to make up for it because you can see Hong Kong Island across the harbor with all its buildings. No picture can do it justice - even if you have a large-format camera. (TST is short for Tsim Sha Tsui).

Since a marriage registration office is nearby, sometimes you will also get to witness the taking of bridal pictures. On a day deemed lucky to the Chinese, you will even see more than one couple.

Pictured above are brides and a groom posing for photographers at the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. No, I don't think the groom is marrying two brides at once. The other groom is just out of the picture, so to speak!
