You can drive for 1 minute in Hong Kong and cross a district. Your mind cannot comprehend this.
Alt text: A planned driving route on Google Maps, crossing the Wan Chai district in 1 minute.
inclementimmigrant, I’d like to know exactly when you could get through driving through Wan Chai in a minute. Hell the ding ding would take a few minutes getting through it.
Lladra, I can drive for a minute and be in a new neighborhood.
shit_of_ass, 
I can drive for a minute and still be on my driveway

FinalRemix, My brain cannot comprehend this.
thorbot, Sure love this new circle jerk format, never gets old
maxso216,
wurstgulasch3000, Is that image real? Double decker tram? I want to go to there
maxso216,
krimsonbun, 
I want to go to hong kong just to go to the PLACE.
ReallyKinda, Me too, eyelash extensions that rival the city’s stadium in importance.
vin, Haha, but squares icons are ads
PotatoesFall, This is meaningless to me. How big is a district? I can walk one minute and cross a block in my neighborhood. Now what?
NorthWestWind, 
It is as meaningless as the posts about driving 43 hours in the same country. Hong Kong has 18 districts, and Wan Chai is one of the smallest ones. However, it’s also one of the most concentrated commercial area.
callmepk, 
This is wrong. The screenshot you are showing is Wan Chai Residential District(en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wan_Chai), not Wan Chai Administrative District (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wan_Chai_District).
This is Wan Chai District (the red dotted area): https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/e099296e-fe1e-41b4-b549-18f7407958cb.jpeg
NorthWestWind, Thanks for the correction. So it will instead take 2 minutes
callmepk, hmmm, I would say 2 minutes is the minimum… mostly it will be around 3-5 minutes from what I feel
NorthWestWind, You’re right. I formally apologize.
callmepk, Not really needs to apologise…. Just feel the estimate is a bit off.
Also why so serious? Everyone make mistakes
NorthWestWind, Because if I don’t, I’m gonna get spammed by internet people saying I’m wrong.
And I’m a New Territories person trying to estimate Hong Kong Island traffic.
callmepk, You can edit your Lemmy post tho with a additional section like “Update:” or “Edit:”
Also I am also live in NT rn; but yeah, I used to live in HK
NorthWestWind, I would rather not edit most of the time to keep my mistakes a history.
Also, are you perhaps coincidentally a TP person?
callmepk, Nah, I am a ST person
NorthWestWind, Ah, also a great place too
madmaurice, 
By train, right?
NorthWestWind, With a train you can go from the northernmost part to the southernmost part of Hong Kong within an hour.
HatchetHaro, 
bro no joke; i can get to my bf’s place in ap lei chau from shatin in an hour. the mtr is nuts.
NorthWestWind, That’s what we get for being the region with the most efficient public transport
Rocketpoweredgorilla, 
Where I live I can’t even get to the city within an hour.
Hugh_Jeggs, At one point, you could’ve sat still in Hong Kong and moved from one country to another
FiniteBanjo, You go to The PLACE, huh? I personally stick to That Destination, not to be confused with The PLACE or That Quad.
NorthWestWind, You just reminded me of how many confusing English names there are in Hong Kong
halvar, Living in Europe this should theoretically be possible in my city as well, but the traffic probably wouldn’t make it possible.
