Are you a fashionista or Muslim dreaming of exploring Hong Kong? Discover the city’s stunning attractions and chic Muslim-friendly experiences with Indah Nada Puspita as your guide.
Having frequented Hong Kong, Indah Nada Puspita (fondly known as Nada) was inspired by the city’s breathtaking skyline, vibrant markets and rich culture, leading her to launch her fashion line ‘The Orient’ and ‘Skyline Series’ – a collection of Hong Kong inspired scarves and clothing. What truly surprised her was Hong Kong's unexpected Muslim friendliness.
Discover Nada's favourite Muslim-friendly destinations and get inspired to embark on your own unforgettable Hong Kong journey. As Nada said, "Hong Kong truly lived up to its nickname, ‘Pearl of the Orient’. Every place I visited had a special charm of its own.”
Kowloon Walled City Park
Kowloon Walled City Park offers a serene escape into the past. Once the world's most densely populated place, the former Kowloon Walled City has been transformed into a tranquil oasis featuring stunning rock displays, seasonal plants and elegant Lingnan-style bonsai.
Nada’s tip: For social media-worthy photos, consider wearing a bright red outfit to contrast with the park's classical backdrop.
Hong Kong TramOramic
Experience Hong Kong's iconic charm aboard the TramOramic, a vintage open-air tram tour offering breathtaking views of the city and a glimpse into its rich history. You can choose from two routes, Eastbound or Westbound, and witness the fascinating contrast between historical landmarks and modern skyscrapers.
The Peak
Soaring above the city, The Peak Tower’s Sky Terrace 428 – the highest viewpoint in Hong Kong – offers panoramic views of the skyline. If you are travelling with family, Nada recommends visiting these fun attractions at The Peak Tower: Madame Tussauds Hong Kong and MONOPOLY DREAMS™!
Nada’s tip: For a unique photo opportunity, hop off the Peak Tram at Barker Road Station to capture the renowned Peak Tram against the stunning Hong Kong cityscape.
WestK
WestK is a vibrant destination offering a unique blend of art, culture and modernity. Explore world-class museums like M+ and the Hong Kong Palace Museum or unwind at the Art Park, enjoying breathtaking waterfront views and a lively atmosphere just like the locals do.
Avenue of Stars
Walk along the iconic Avenue of Stars, lined with the handprints of Hong Kong's cinematic legends like Michelle Yeoh and Jackie Chan, and capture a memorable photo with the bronze statue of Bruce Lee. Don't miss the mesmerising ‘A Symphony of Lights’ show at 8pm.
Nada’s tip: Elevate your Hong Kong experience by crossing Victoria Harbour on the scenic Star Ferry instead of the MTR.
From classic Hong Kong dim sum at Islamic Centre Canteen to delectable pastries at Imperial Patisserie, the city's halal food scene offers something for every foodie.
One of Nada's favourite restaurants in Hong Kong is the only halal dim sum available at the Islamic Centre Canteen, located at Masjid Ammar & Osman Ramju Sadick Islamic Centre. With over 30 types of dim sum to choose from, you're sure to find a new favourite.
Looking for souvenirs to bring home for friends and loved ones? Nada’s tip is to head to Imperial Patisserie, a home-grown Hong Kong confectionary chain that specialises in halal Chinese pastries. With convenient locations across Hong Kong, this bakery offers a variety of tempting treats, from halal flaky egg rolls to crispy cookies.
Besides the upscale and large shopping malls that Hong Kong is famous for, Nada’s tip is to explore local markets and streets to find treasures and unexpected Instagrammable spots.
Yau Ma Tei Jade Market
Although this might not be a typical market for travellers, it is a treasure trove for those seeking exquisite jade accessories. From elegant necklaces and bracelets to home decorations, you'll find a wide variety of authentic options to suit your taste.
Western Market
One of Nada’s picks is the unique Western Market in Sheung Wan. Explore the market's diverse offerings, including art and craft shops and fabric merchants. When you are done shopping, don’t forget to snap a picture against the red brick facade and grand archway adorning this stunning Edwardian building.
Fa Yuen Street (Sneakers Street)
Sneakers Street is where you can find the best deals and widest range of sneaker brands in Hong Kong. Being next to the equally popular Ladies’ Market, visitors can enjoy the bustling shopping vibes and local street food stalls around the area.
Nada hopes that her Muslim-friendly destination recommendations will inspire you to discover and redefine your own version of Hong Kong. Remember to send Nada your postcards from Hong Kong once you've finished exploring!
