Amanda Foreman
In mainland China, there are many good theaters - sometimes better than Hong Kong.
Andrew Lau

Anthony Anderson
Hong Kong is a wonderful, mixed-up town where you've got great food and adventure. First and foremost, it's a great place to experience China in a relatively accessible way.
