Maybe you\u2019ve messed things up and are trying to make amends, or maybe Valentine\u2019s Day is coming up. After buying romantic gifts<\/a> and hunting down the best florists<\/a> in Hong Kong, the only thing left to do is to plan the perfect date night<\/a>. \u00a0Whatever the occasion is, don\u2019t sweat it \u2013 we\u2019ve compiled a list of romantic things to do in Hong Kong for you to score big brownie points and create some memories that will last a lifetime.<\/p>\n

Romantic things to do in Hong Kong that don\u2019t break the bank<\/h2>\n

1. Picnic at Tap Mun<\/h3>\n

There\u2019s no shortage of grassy camping<\/a> and picnic spots<\/a> in Hong Kong, but few are as peaceful and picturesque as Tap Mun<\/a>, also known as Grass Island. Accessible only by ferry from Wong Shek Pier in Sai Kung, Tap Mun is well worth the day excursion to get a reprieve from city life. Nothing says romance like laying out a blanket, popping a bubbly, and enjoying some nibbles \u2013 especially in such a tranquil setting. Work up an appetite (or burn off some calories) by hiking<\/a> around the island and spotting the cute cows!<\/p>\n

2. Play with adorable kittens at Cats Tea Room<\/h3>\n

Got an animal lover for a beau? Plan a cute date to Cats Tea Room, one of our fave cat cafes<\/a> in Hong Kong. As soon as you step in, you\u2019ll find a diverse group of adopted strays ready to be your wingman! Show off your sensitive side by playing with resident felines, and don\u2019t forget to order you and your date some food and drinks from the cafe\u2019s extensive menu.<\/p>\n

3. Spend a day (or two) in Tai O<\/h3>\n

Hong Kong\u2019s outlying islands naturally exude an ideal ambience for kindling romance. This is particularly true for Tai O<\/a> on Lantau Island<\/a>. Whether you plan to pose for photos with your beau by the traditional stilt houses, shop for fresh seafood or Tai O\u2019s famous shrimp paste for a homemade feast, or simply take a stroll along its waterfront at sunset, your date will feel like something out of a fairy tale. And if you decide it\u2019s too late to head home, spend a night at the Tai O Heritage Hotel, where its stunning colonial architecture will only add fuel to the fire of your passion!<\/p>\n

Who says you need to go to Paris for love lock bridges? Just a ferry ride away on one of Hong Kong\u2019s outlying islands<\/a> is the Lock of Love in Cheung Chau<\/a>! You and your special someone can seal your love with a padlock or heart-shaped piece of wood at the fenced area near the pier. In fact, the nearby European-inspired B&B Cheung Chau regularly hosts a Love Lock Market at this space. You can keep an eye out on its next installment on the resort\u2019s socials.<\/p>\n
