    Efficient, easy to negotiate

    Notwithstanding that Hong Kong is small, it still is very easy to go around as a tourist because of the MTR. It is very efficient, clean, and easy to negotiate.

    Easy and fast way to get around

    It is easy to take the MTR in Hong Kong and very affordable. With traffic being difficult it is also the fastest way to get around. Even for a tourist it is an easy way to explore the city.
