Thanks all. My wife and I were also felling awesome when we saw this bird. When we were in Beijing this Christmas (2013), my wife thought she saw one there, but this one in the Peak was really Chinese Thrush.
Probably other birders will like to catch a grimlse of this bird. Here is the locations we saw twice that day: the lawns of first, and the second level of Victoria Peak Garden. On the second level where the flower garden and the pavillion are located you may see the scaly thrush if you are lucky.

you walk down from this level, you see the first lawn; and you walk down several steps and you enter the second level, you will see this:

I suggest you get the view first from the very top and see if you can see the bird(s). Then quietly go down. Try to go there during weekday when less people/tourists are there. In the early morning, people like to take their dogs there, then you will be disappointed.
