Things To See in Hong Kong

Kowloon Image

Central (Hong Kong Island)  a beautiful harbor, hotels and shopping malls, restaurants, towering skyscrapers, the most spectacular,Two International Finance Centre (2IFC), the $1 billion Hong Kong bank, considered the most expensive building ever built, and the Jardine House will make a long lasting impression that Hong Kong is one of the most beautiful myjestic cities in the world. Just a few blocks away is Western district where you will glimpse signs of a bygone era.

 Kowloon

One of the most densely populated places on earth.   

What others say about Kowloon

...Kowloon is the shoppers mecca for all things! This small section of land just off Hong Kong is the place to be! It has MANY great shops...

...I found Kowloon to be a much more "real" place in that it was dirtier, less orderly, and full of signs of common life...

Lantau Island

This mountainous island twice the size of Central but with only a small percent of its population, is a quiet urban retreat for those who want to get away from the crowds.  More than half of Lantau Island has been designated as Country Park area. Great for nature lovers and hikers.

Mai Po Nature Reserve

The Mai Po Nature Reserve is an important stopping point for migratory birds. The reserve's 1,000 acres of reed-fringed marshes, shrimp ponds, mudflats, and mangrove forests are so rich in bird life.

 Sai Kung Peninsula
 
Save for a sprinkling of fishing villages, the Sai Kung Peninsula is deserted land--perfect for hikers who want to escape the bustling city.

Victoria Peak

Victoria Peak offers the most amazing vistas of Hong Kong. Take the Peak Tram to view the most beautiful place in Hong Kong.
