Introducing the first volume in the travel book series, A Picture Is Worth 1,000 Characters™. The authors put a unique stamp on their personal reflections by giving a modern twist to the well-known phrase, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Each of the 43 enlightening and entertaining impressions features a captivating original photograph and a story that’s exactly 1,000 characters long.

Immerse yourself in Hong Kong’s 24/7 lifestyle where people and vehicles are seemingly impatient to be anywhere but where they are. Escape into the exotic flower, bird, goldfish and “wet” markets lining the city’s narrow streets for a glimpse at everyday life for Hong Kongers. Explore Macau on foot to wander through her stunning mosaic plazas and alleyways to sights where tourists gasp on hilly streets that rival San Francisco’s. And ride the ferry back in time to the car-free village of Cheung Chau where many of the packed harbor’s colorful fishing boats display a day’s catch sun drying on racks and nets.

There’s so much to see and do in these amazing cities. “Impressions of Hong Kong and Macau” will help you understand what they’re really like even before you leave home.
