Highlight

The Skyline

Hong Kong’s signature attraction; the crowd of skyscrapers arched around the waters of Victoria Harbour on Hong Kong Island are a jaw dropping sight. As the most impressive skyline in the world, you should make time to see the skyline both in the day, from Victoria Peak, and at night, when it plays host to the Symphony of Lights laser and light show.

A Walled Village

Yes, Hong Kong does have a history. It might seem like the territories past only stretches back to the days of opium boxes, warships and treaties, but some of Hong Kong’s villages are over 500 years old and much of their heritage remains intact. Defensive walls, ancestral halls and traditionally dressed villagers can all be found at one of Hong Kong’s walled villages.

Lamma Island

A few days on Hong Kong Island can have you feeling like you need to lie down in a dark room. Do the next best thing, go to Lamma Island. This rural retreat offers jungle greenery, deserted beaches and ramshackle villages stuffed with seafood restaurants. There are no cars on the island so be sure to pack a good pair of legs, if you want to go exploring.

The Temples

Temples continue to play an integral part in the life of Hong Kongers and on major festivals you’ll see them overflowing with locals bearing gifts to please the gods. Noisy, colourful and chaotic, the temples are usually cloaked in smoke from the constantly burning incense sticks and boldly and beautifully decorated with traditional Chinese motifs and designs.

Nathan Road

Probably Hong Kong’s most photographed street, Nathan Road is the showcase for the city’s iconic, neon advertising signs. Crammed in at every angle and hanging off every building, the signs are a testament to Nathan Road’s role as the commercial heart of Tsim Sha Tsui. If you want to see Hong Kong at its bustling best, head here.
