That's a church not far from Lok Fu MTR. The photo was taken from Morse Park.

Actually, I've always stopped over in Vancouver or Calgary for a bit before going back to Montreal, so by then I've gotten used to being outside Hong Kong. Compared to those cities, Montreal always seems big and lively.
There was one time I went straight from HK to Montreal. As you'd expect it felt strangely quiet and the buildings were a lot shorter than I remembered. It's not necessarily a bad thing. There's a certain silence you can get right in the middle of the city that you appreciate after being in HK. That's not to say there aren't quiet neighbourhoods here but somehow they feel different.
The funny thing about living in Hong Kong is that it makes pretty much every other city feel quiet and relaxed. Both times I've been to Tokyo, it felt super chilled out compared to Hong Kong, which of course surprises anyone in Tokyo, since they're used to foreign visitors telling them how intense it is.
