More About Hong Kong

Hong Kong is well known for its unique blend of old and new and influences from east and west. With 5,000 years of Chinese traditions and 150 years of British colonial influence, it‘s a city that changes all of the time. So even if you have visited before, the next time you see Hong Kong you will find something new! This vibrant city is a whirlwind of activity so you can spend time enjoying this amazing place before travelling further afield for a change of pace. Shoppers will feel like they are in heaven with the wide array of bustling markets and ultra-modern malls selling everything from jewellery to antiques and clothes. When you're all shopped out, it's time to sample some of the finest cuisines in the world in the culinary capital of Asia by visiting one of the thousands of restaurants that Hong Kong is home to. For some fresh air and a change of scenery, head out to the exotic areas and islands just beyond the skyscrapers. You can travel between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island on the legendary Star Ferry. Or take a ride up Victoria Peak on the Peak Tram, one of the steepest funicular trains in the world. Here you can enjoy breathtaking views of the city during the day and especially at night when the sky is illuminated with thousands of neon lights. Another popular trip is to Lantau Island. Jump on the ferry and enjoy a leisurely trip before arriving in the harbour and exploring the various sights such as the village on stilts, the monastery and the famous Buddha.
