‘It's my new favourite city' – the beautiful stopover holiday with world's tallest bar and Hawaii-like beaches
OUR new column gives you the lowdown on what to see and do in your favourite holiday hotspots. This week it's all about the captivating city of Hong Kong, a great layover destination for anyone travelling to Australia or New Zealand. 5 5 The Sun's Deputy Travel Editor Kara Godfrey recently visited on a whirlwind two-day trip of the city. She explained: "It's one one of my new favourite cities, having everything from amazing food and nightlife as well as beautiful nature parts. "If staying in the city, head to the 18th floor of the Ritz Carlton Hotel, which is where you will find Ozone, the highest rooftop bar in the world. "Or there is The Majestic Garden, a beautiful outdoor bar tucked behind a shopping mall restaurant, as well as the Quinary, named one of the best bars in Asia. "But my favourite spot was Sai Kung, a short taxi from the main city where I found empty beaches more like the Philippines or Hawaii. "If you want to splash out, a stay at The Peninsular is really something special, with Rolls-Royce pick ups and beautiful views over the river (although if you just want to explore the hotel itself, you can book a much more affordable and just as popular afternoon tea there instead)." Here are some other top tips of ours when visiting Hong Kong. Must see and do It would be silly to pass through Hong Kong without visiting the Tian Tan Buddha (or Big Buddha), a giant bronze statue in Ngong Ping. It's a pretty spectacular sight, perched atop the lush and leafy Mount Muk Yue. If you're into theme parks, Disneyland Resort Hong Kong is celebrating its 20th anniversary this summer, and there'll be a full year of celebrations taking place. Noah's Ark Hotel and Resort is one of Hong Kong's most quirky and unusual spots Visitors will get to watch the largest-ever parade along Main Street, a special night-time fireworks display and a show exclusive to the anniversary celebrations. Best view Ask anyone where to find the best view in Hong Kong and they'll undoubtedly say The Peak, or Victoria Peak, the highest hill on the island. Tick off a bucket list experience by riding the historic Peak Tram, one of the oldest trams in the world, to the top where a viewing platform (Sky Terrace 428) awaits. It was built in 1888 to serve the British governor and The Peak's residents and continues to run today as a popular tourist attraction. Pack your hiking boots to take advantage of one of the many scenic walking trails. Rated restaurant Luk Yu Tea House is a dining institution in Hong Kong - and the food is so good, we're not surprised it's made it into the Michelin Guide. Spread across colonial-era three floors, you can expect to tuck into classic Chinese flavours including crispy deep-fried chicken and sliced beef brisket noodles. Don't leave without trying the dim sum, though, which are delicately hand-folded. Best bar As the World's 50 Best Bars heads to Hong Kong for 2025 at the revamped Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, Bar Leone is looking to beat off the competition to retain its title from 2024. This casual Italian-themed bar, founded by an awardwinning Italian mixologist, is famed for having mastered the classic cocktails, all of which come at a reasonable price. Make sure to try the bar snacks while you're here, from mortadella foccacia to smoked olives. Hotel pick If you're after something a little different, look no further than Noah's Ark Hotel and Resort. The quirky hotel was built as a full-scale replica of Noah's Ark, complete with animals walking two-by-two from the dock on to dry land. The rooms inside are less funky, kitted out with comfy bedding and simple wooden-panelled walls. It's a great spot for families or groups, too, with four-person bunk rooms as well as rooms with two queen-sized beds. Double bedrooms start from £74 per night based on two adults sharing and including breakfast. See For more information about Hong Kong, see 5

The 47p essential buy mums swear by to prevent your holiday being ruined with tears and tantrums
THE summer holidays are officially here, which can only mean one thing, a family vacation. While we all love heading abroad to relax by the pool, or spending time on a beachside trip in the UK, it can come with challenges when you have kids to look after. 3 Fortunately, one mum has found a cheap hack that will make it all a little bit easier. We all know that hair easily gets matted in the pool and in the ocean and trying to get it knot-free again for children can lead to tears and tantrums. But one mum has shared a must-have buy that keeps hair from becoming a bird's nest. Taking to social media, the mum was seen putting her daughter's hair up before getting into the ocean. She wrote: "We're at the beach 24/7 and her hair gets tangles so fast!" "Braids don't work for her, they get matted. This is literally the only thing that helps," she captioned the post. The video showed the mum put a hair band in her daughter's hair, but this was no ordinary hairband. Connected to the hair tie was a long fabric braid that she twisted around the ponytail When she got to the end of the ponytail, the braid had a smaller hair tie attached to the bottom to keep it secure. It meant her daughter's hair would securely stay together without moving an inch, preventing matting. 3 3 tips to help you get the cheapest flights when booking holidays "This is hands down the best solution I've found!" she added. So if you're heading to the beach this summer you may want to purchase the travel buy for you and your kids. The best part is that you can buy the rope hair tie for as little as 47p on Shein. The pack costs £1.91 at the moment and comes with four hair ties. The clip which was shared on the mum's TikTok account @ lifeontheisland has gone viral with over 7 million views and people were quick to thank her for the holiday hack. One person wrote: "I'm a full grown adult and might have to buy this for the beach." Another commented: "I once had to chop off my long beautiful hair into a bob as a kid because it got matted from a braid in a beach day. A product like this could have prevented it." Top Hacks for Holidaying with Kids IF you've got plans to go on holiday with your little ones this summer, here's some advice to take on board. Plan Ahead: Book accommodations with family-friendly amenities. Research kid-friendly attractions and activities. Make travel arrangements that accommodate your children's schedules. Pack Smart: Create a packing checklist to ensure you don't forget essentials. Pack a mix of familiar and new toys to keep kids entertained. Bring snacks, extra clothes, and emergency supplies in your carry-on. Travel Comfort: Use neck pillows and blankets for a more comfortable journey. Download movies, games, and music on tablets or phones. Schedule travel during nap times or overnight to maximise sleep. Stay Organized: Use packing cubes to keep clothes and items sorted. Keep important documents, like passports and tickets, in a dedicated folder. Utilise apps for itinerary management and navigation. Engage and Entertain: Plan interactive activities like scavenger hunts or travel journals. Explore local parks, playgrounds, and kid-friendly museums. Involve kids in trip planning to get them excited and engaged. Maintain Routine: Stick to regular meal and sleep times as much as possible. Bring along comfort items, like favorite blankets or stuffed animals. Allow for downtime to avoid overstimulation. Stay Flexible: Be prepared to adjust plans based on your children's needs and moods. Embrace the unexpected and make the most of impromptu moments. Keep a positive attitude to set the tone for a fun and memorable trip. These hacks can help make your holiday with kids smoother, more enjoyable, and will ensure that you return home with wonderful memories! "I am giving this a try. Always braid the hair of my niece but it never helps. One bit of water and boom... two hours of frustration after the beach," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "That's genius!!!! Braids do not work for my daughter! I've even done multiple braids and they all turned into dreadlocks!" "I'm going to have to try this!! My daughter's hair does the same thing and she ends up looking like she has dreads!' claimed a fifth Someone else added: "This is genius, I need one."

I've found the secret to a happy relationship: an ‘airport divorce'
In the end our differences were irreconcilable. Morwenna and I had only been engaged for a couple of months, but after about a dozen holidays and a good 24 hours spent in airports together, we decided that enough was enough. If anything, the security of our forthcoming marriage had granted us the freedom to (finally) be honest with each other. No more indulging irritating habits. Out with the qualities of patience and tolerance we had flaunted while dating. So vastly different were our approaches to flying that an 'airport divorce' — that is, parting ways after passing through security and reconvening an hour or so later on the plane — felt like the optimal outcome for both of us. There were certain things we agreed upon, mostly to do with pre-flight planning. After years of time-maximising by taking early-morning and late-evening flights, we're now committed middle-of-the-day flyers. And we both reckon it's sensible to arrive a couple of hours before departure. It's when we get past the bag scanners and snake through duty free that the friction begins. 'I'm just going to have a look here,' said Morwenna in the smellies area at Alicante airport last month. I shuffled along behind her. She handled a moisturiser for a few seconds then returned it. And again. A third time. 'Are you just going to pick objects up then put them back down for half an hour?' I asked. 'Yes,' she said, 'that's what I like doing at the airport.' And that was the fateful moment we chose to part company and link up later on the plane. A British Airways survey from a couple of years ago found that more than half of travellers claim to 'adopt a new personality' within the hectic, anxiety-inducing tinderbox that is the airport. I think both Morwenna and I fall into this camp. To look at things within the framework of type A/B personality theory, in non-airport life I'd argue that, like most people, we both sit somewhere between A (organised, think time management is sexy) and B (relaxed, susceptible to being late). At the airport we transmute, werewolf-like, into unrecognisable beings. I amp up my neurotic type A side; Morwenna leans into her laid-back type B persona (all the more difficult to comprehend because in the real world she is five minutes early for everything). We are not our best, balanced selves. • 11 of the most romantic holiday destinations around the world What this means in practice is that, before the gate number is announced, I like to sit somewhere with a direct view of a departures board (if that's Wetherspoons then all the better), so I am ready to leap up and half-walk, half-run in the right direction. Morwenna, on the other hand, is well aware that the plane isn't really going to start boarding 45 minutes before departure. So she browses. And browses. Taking pleasure in her only real responsibility in that moment: being to make it onto the plane and challenging herself to be the last on board. At the gate I like to be in line relatively early, both to soothe my anxiety over missing the flight and to secure a spot for my cabin bag. Not Morwenna. Our mutual travel history is a series of episodes involving me repeating, 'Shall we get in the queue then?' and her responding '… but why?' So on that journey back from Alicante, she did her thing, I did mine. She perused the tins of olives and anchovies; I knocked back an Estrella and scanned the flight information board. I was anxious on her behalf. We gave each other nasty looks across the gate while I queued and she lounged. But aside from that … it was a much less fraught experience all round. • 10 of the most romantic city breaks in Europe Some couples say a 'sleep divorce' is the secret to a happy relationship. I'd say it's splitting up at the airport. Are you a fan of the 'airport divorce'? Let us know in the comments
