Introducing Hong Kong


This densely populated city is known for its glittering skyscrapers that mirror the city out from wherever you look, and the city manages to blend the mysticism of its temples with the modernity of its luxury shopping centers to remarkable effect. Start your exploration of the city at Victoria Peak by climbing up and looking out over the spectacular views of the city, then head over to Hollywood Road and Wing Lee Street to see the colorful lifestyle of the city. Hong Kong is a city where you can experience both nature hiking through Dragon's Back or navigate the busy city through the Central–Mid-Levels Escalator and Walkway System. If you are looking for somewhere to enjoy the best dishes Chinese cuisine has to offer, then Hong Kong is the place for you.
