Japanese Koi Farm in HK

On a recent episode of Dolce Vita, we visited a koi farm here in Hong Kong.  This kind of excursion is a little different from the usual glitzy restaurants and watch events we go to but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of driving out to the New Territories and getting in touch with nature.     Who says there's nothing fun to do in HK?!!

Koi are like snowflakes...no two are identical.

Don't know why I was posing for a baseball shot...

These things are HUGE!!!  And exceptionally beautiful.  The caretakers are able to take the koi out of their pond without harming them.

Me and my awesome director Ryan.

Not surprisingly, those who take koi seriously as a hobby are people who live the dolce vita. There was one fish that was HKD90,000!

Kirt -- you know what they say about people with big koi, right? Belkie -- you could just sit there and watch them all day. Machiato -- it's in Fanling in the New Territories. It's open to the public; obviously, it's a place of business and not a zoo but if you pretend to be a buyer, it's totally cool. The people there are total enthusiasts so they are happy just talking about koi even if you don't make a purchase.
