What to do and see in Hong Kong, China: The Best Lessons & Workshops

December 8, 2021 Alice Mieles

Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Really excellent class- the teacher was very knowledgeable and was able to communicate in both excellent English and Cantonese. The class was perfectly planned- the timings of the bread making matched perfectly and we were all happy we could take home a small sofa bread and then 4 bread rolls. Have already booked to come back! ???? Would 100% recommend!

KA Atelier - Beginners Chinese Painting workshop

KA Atelier, a private painting studio, is a reflection of Hong Kong’s art and culture, frequently described as "East meets West", due to it’s mix of Chinese traditions with Western influence from British rule. KA Atelier offers unique art classes melding Chinese painting skills and philosophies with Western modes of expression. Ideal for Hong Kongers to escape the city’s hustle and bustle as well as for tourists to discover the traditions of Chinese painting which I am determined to keep it alive by passing on the lessons of my late teacher, a renowned Chinese Painting Master, with a modern approach.

I attended the workshop to create an unique Valentine’s Day gift for my boyfriend. It all started with a warm welcome from Angel in her cozy studio. I was then invited to smell 32 different scents to creation my own unique blend of bespoke perfume. Based on my choice of scents, Angel shed more insights on our personalities and provided professional advice on the blend of the perfume. Angel is very knowledgeable and informative about the different scents. She is also very patient at explaining the characters of the different scents and their stories. One of my favorite things about the workshop is I was able to include a short personalized message to my boyfriend on the label of my bespoke perfume. Thank you so much again for the experience Angel. I really enjoyed every single moment of the workshop. This is highly recommended!
