It looks like the original post you referred to has been removed, so there isn’t any content to respond to directly. However, if your question is about making the most of a layover in Hong Kong, here’s some general advice:

Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) is very well connected and offers options depending on your layover duration.

Short Layover (under 4 hours): Stay within the airport. HKIA has lounges you can pay to access, free Wi-Fi, and plenty of shops and restaurants. There are also walking tours inside the terminal if you want to stretch your legs.
Medium Layover (4–8 hours): Consider a quick city excursion. Options include:

Take the Airport Express train to Hong Kong Station (~24 minutes), then explore Central or Tsim Sha Tsui. You could stroll along Victoria Harbour or visit a nearby market.
Visit Ngong Ping Village on Lantau Island to see the Big Buddha, though this may take 3–4 hours round trip.

Long Layover (8+ hours): You can plan a more substantial half-day trip:

Explore Central and Sheung Wan, try local dim sum, visit Man Mo Temple, or ride the Peak Tram for city views.
Consider a short ferry ride to Tsim Sha Tsui or a quick shopping visit at Harbour City.
Return to the airport in time to clear security; Airport Express or taxi are both convenient options, especially with luggage.

Important tips:

Ensure you have your travel documents and visa status checked if leaving the airport.
Factor in transport time and airport security checks—generally allow at least 1.5–2 hours before your connecting flight.
Consider using luggage storage facilities at HKIA if you want to move around the city without your bags.

Even with a short layover, Hong Kong’s airport and city are easy to navigate, so you can get a small taste of the city if time permits.
