OK, who wants to see an escalator? Well, this 800-meter hillside escalator starts from Queen's Road Central, runs to the Hang Seng Bank Building on Des Voeux Road Central, then passes through the Central Market and continues to climb past Hollywood Road to the prime Mid-levels residential district. The free ride from Central to Conduit Road takes about 20 minutes, a lot quicker than walking up, which usually takes forever. The longest covered outdoor escalator system in the world, the system took two-and-a-half years and more than 205 million HKD to build.
