Long a favorite travel destination in Asia, Hong Kong is a vibrant, fast paced and modern city that still holds onto many of its ancient Chinese traditions and British colonial influences. Divided into four distinctly different areas (Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, the New Territories and the Outlying Islands) - you will want to include each in any tour of Hong Kong if you are to get a true appreciation of the city.
High above Hong Kong Island sits Victoria Peak with its spectacular vantage point of the Hong Kong skyline, the stunningly beautiful Victoria Harbor and Kowloon. Take a sightseeing cruise of Victoria Harbor on the last authentic sailing junk in Hong Kong. Attend a performance of the Beijing Opera, a rather unique brand of theater that combines song, dance, acting and acrobatics.
Getting around Hong Kong is easy so take advantage of it and explore the fantastic shops and restaurants, museums, beautiful parks and temples or find tranquility in the Tai Chi practiced at the city’s parks in the morning.
Hong Kong is a fascinating city to visit and should be included into any vacation to Asia.
