Hong Kong's pedestrian infrastructure is very cool. It's not perfect in any way. If you don't have full mobility it can bevery cumbersome at times. But overall, better than most cities.There's lots of pedestrian tunnels and walkways. There are lifts and escalators in many places. Sometimes the lift allows you to bring a bicycle, ride across a bridge, on a paved bike lane, to the next lift.But today I learned that one particular part is even cooler than I thought.

One of the fun things with living in Hong Kong, if you're a five-year-old at heart, love secret tunnels, and don't love walking outside in scorching heat with near-saturated humidity, is to learn to navigate the walkways beneath the busy district of Tsim Sha Tsui. TST station has tunnels to most parts of core TST and to the harborside promenade, and also fully connects to neighboring station TST East. Twice! There are two ways to go from one station to the other completely underground.Which other stations are connected like that?

@notclacke Rautatientori and Kamppi (Helsinki metro), useful for a similar but opposite reason: staying indoors when it's cold and snowy

The only pair I would have mentioned off the cuff is Sheung Wan and Central (and Hong Kong Station, same thing as Central really, you don't blip out of the network when you walk from one to the other). There's a walkway bridge connecting Shun Tak on top of Sheung Wan Station to IFC on top of Hong Kong Station.But the other day I realized that also Wan Chai Station and the new Exhibition Center Station are fully connected. Cool, but that's not the exciting thing yet. I would have guessed it or figured it out if someone asked, they're both in Wan Chai, which is rich with interconnected towers.
