Within the temple, look for a statue of a man in green robes with a writing brush. This is one of the gods for which the temple is named -- Man Chung, the god of literature. Statues of Kwan Yu, the Chinese god of war, flank the main alter. As a famous general known for his martial successes, Kwan Yu is sometimes considered the deity of both the police force and the Chinese triads.
If you’re feeling particularly superstitious on your visit to Man Mo Temple, head into the hall to the right of the entrance to have your fortune told by an English-speaking teller who will divine your future using several bamboo sticks and a cup.

Doing what: Hong Kong Hop-On Hop-Off City Tour
My 2 day pass Hongkong Hop On Hop Off City Tour was really amazing. I came to taste Hongkong with all of what it can offer to tourist in just 2 days (great views, sampan ride, peak tram ride and harbour tour). The complimentary is very informative. The tour itself is very organized, leaving you to decide and create your own tour by just hopping on and off on the big bus. Excellent.

Doing what: Hong Kong Hop-On Hop-Off City Tour
Took the Red Route. Great way to spend a day. The tram ride to Victoria Peak and the Sampan ride were highlights. But, you need to give your buyers specifics about how to catch the bus. We had to do a lot of work just to find out where to go and how to get there. Don't just sell us a ticket.

Doing what: Hong Kong Hop-On Hop-Off City Tour
We had an excellent experience using the Hop-On bus on our recent visit to Hong Kong in late March. It was very user-friendly, with helpful staff and excellent routes. The audio support through earphones was very helpful. The river cruise was also most enjoyable. Would recommend it to everyone...a great way to do sightseeing in a new place with full control of what you want to see and how long you want to spend at each location. We took the two-day package.
