Visiting Hongkong - how much $ to plan for (self.hongkong)

How is the cost of living in Hongkong these days? I'll be visiting later this summer and wondering how much cash to bring. Accomodation is paid for so would need money for food, transportation, and any visits for museums. I've been to HK before so have done most of the touristy things already. Thanks!

Just the MTR is good for me, no bars. Is there a week pass with the octopus card? I couldn't find info online.

I would stick to single-ride tickets on the Octopus card. They're pretty cheap at around 1-2 USD per single ride.

Do check out some of the mall food courts though, they are legit.

Only a day pass, which isn't that good of a deal unless you're visiting multiple HK districts in a day.
