Hong Kong is an amazing state within a state, where its own laws, order and culture rule. A place where East meets West, where fishing villages peacefully coexist with modern skyscrapers, traditions with modern technologies, and characteristic floating markets with ultra-fashionable shopping centers.
Tours to Hong Kong
Today, Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China and is located on its southeastern coast. Hong Kong consists of the island of the same name, other territories and more than 250 small islands.
Hong Kong can rightfully be called a country growing upwards, since there is catastrophically little space on the island of the same name, all the buildings here are multi-story, and highways and motorways encircle the city and penetrate it through and through, located on piles above the ground.
The country's territory is abundantly covered with numerous mountains, hills and forests. It is because of the difficult relief that only a quarter of the territory is populated, the rest of the space is occupied by nature reserves and parks.
What to see - tours to Hong Kong
Holidays in Hong Kong are interesting not only for getting to know the unique city and its traditions, but also many natural beauties await you here. The highest point of Hong Kong Island is Victoria Peak, 552 m high. At the top of the mountain there is an observation deck from where a stunning panoramic view of the city, new territories and islands opens up, the view is especially beautiful at night.
It is also interesting to visit the Aberdeen area, where you will find traditional floating markets. And you can get acquainted with traditional Chinese architecture in the Sheung Wan quarter, where many colorful buildings have been built.
When going on holiday to Hong Kong, do not forget about the nightly laser show that covers the entire city. The symphony of lights covers the evening business district at exactly 8:00 pm and lasts only 13 minutes, but during this time you will see something unusual and fascinating.
It is also worth noting the numerous temples located in Hong Kong: Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Temple, Temple of 10,000 Buddhas, Po Lin Monastery, Bamboo Forest Monastery and many others. In addition, here you will find a giant statue of a seated Buddha, original villages, numerous parks and interesting viewing platforms.
