• Many small stuff. Smallest hotel room I might have stayed in. Smallest McDonald's for sure I have seen anywhere.
• Hong Kong dollars have a fixed peg to USD.
• People wearing masks around.
• The official currency is printed not by a Fed equivalent but by Standard Chartered and HSBC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banknotes_of_the_Hong_Kong_dollar#Note_printing
• British words. Do not throw "rubbish" etc

"People wearing masks around" wouldn't have been on the list had I visited today.
