Introduction

Hong Kong is a unique place where East meets West and a fascinating colonial past & Chinese tradition continues to thrive in an ultra modern city. Step away from the bustling harbour and gleaming skyscrapers and you can find yourself amongst signs of timeless Chinese life. Hong Kong also offers some of the world's best hotels, great shopping and renowned food. It is a vibrant, buzzing city where there is always something going on: from international sporting events to traditional Chinese festivals; horseracing to Tai Chi in the park! Hong Kong is a fantastic introduction to Asia and simply unforgettable.

Attractions in and around Hong Kong

  • VICTORIA PEAK A trip up to Victoria Peak by tram is essential. The steep funicular railway takes 8 minutes to reach the peak from where the panoramic views of Hong Kong's skyline and harbour are spectacular.
  • LANTAU ISLAND/NEW TERRITORIES A day away from the hustle and bustle of urban Hong Kong is ideal to get an overall picture of this diverse country. Take a trip to either Lantau with its Big Buddha or into the New Territories with its lush rural beauty.
  • HARBOUR NIGHT CRUISE A fantastic way to view the city when it is alight at night is from a Chinese Junk cruising in the harbour.
