The Monster Building HK๐Ÿ˜Š

One of Hong Kongโ€™s most Instragrammable sites, known for its incredibly dense and stacked flats. Also known as the โ€˜Monster Buildingโ€™ for its conglomeration of five incredibly dense and stacked residential complexes, Yik Cheong Building and Montane Mansion are possibly the most well-known locations in Quarry Bay and definitely one of the most Instagrammed spots in Hong Kong. A perfect reflection of cityโ€™s famed urban density, the photogenic architecture has been featured Hollywood blockbusters like Ghost in the Shell and Transformers: Age of Extinctionโ˜บ๏ธ #monsterbuilding #hongkong #hongkongtravel #exploresgtogether #tripblazers #mytripvlog

Explore the Urban Jungle at Monster Building ๐Ÿ™๏ธ๐Ÿฆ– Step into Hong Kongโ€™s most iconic โ€œliving mazeโ€โ€”Monster Building. ๐Ÿ“ธ This residential complex is famed for its dramatic, stacked architecture, loved by photographers and film crews seeking gritty city vibes. The vibe here is ultra-local, with daily life playing out above and around you. Start your adventure right after hopping off the Quarry Bay MTRโ€”Monster Building is just steps away! Wander through the open-air courtyard for the classic upward shot of towering flats (top insta-angle: stand in the center and look straight up for max impact). The best light hits around late afternoon, but early mornings offer fewer crowds for those pure, geometric shots. Must-do: Snap the classic โ€œcanyonโ€ shot, then soak in the hum of local life as you grab a quick snack from the ground-floor shops. Resist the urge to shout or play music; youโ€™re in a real residential zone. Thereโ€™s zero signage, so use Google Maps to navigate and tread lightlyโ€”smile, greet residents with a nod, and give priority to locals. Venture quietly, avoid blocking walkways, and respect privacy (no directly aiming your camera at apartment windows). Practical tips: No entrance fee, open year-round, but public restrooms are limitedโ€”plan accordingly. Stay alert for moderate crowds, and keep noise to a minimum so residents remain happy to share this iconic spot. #HongKong #Cityscape #TravelTips #MonsterBuilding #UrbanExplorer
