Hong Kong is a young, vibrant city bursting with energy. This is obvious to anyone standing on the pier in Tsim Sha Tsui, looking out over Hong Kong’s impressive skyline of skyscrapers. Here's a city that has managed to make the art of squeezing seven million people together in an area of 1,000 square kilometres. With its beautiful landscapes, distinctive cyberpunk air, energetic nightlife and fantastic food, Hong Kong is a traveller's paradise. Over 25 million people come here each year to experience a city unlike any other.

Do & See

Temples, museums, amusement parks and lookout points – Hong Kong has a huge variety of sights to explore. Highlights include the Man Mo Temple, Victoria Peak, the Big Buddha and the night-time market on Temple Street, but be sure to find some time to explore some of the city's fantastic museums, as well: the former colonial police station of Tai Kwun, for example, reopened recently as a museum and cultural venue, and features curious spots like a full-blown bar inside a refurbished old prison.

Victoria Peak

Victoria Peak

Victoria Peak is an absolute must for visitors to Hong Kong – ascend 522 metres by tram and look out over the entire city, but do make sure that it is not a foggy day. Victoria Peak has always been an area for the propertied classes, and nowadays this also means that Hong Kong’s best promenade is to be found in the leafy, quiet area around the peak station. It is also here you will find one of the most iconic landmarks of Hong Kong, The Peak Tower, which features Hong Kong's highest observation tower (the Sky Terrace 428), including the wax museum Madame Tussauds and the Peak Market.

Tai Kwun — Centre for Heritage & Arts

Tai Kwun — Centre for Heritage & Arts

Hong Kong's largest ever restoration project is an arts and entertainment complex occupying the colonial-era police station and its adjacent buildings, such as a former jail, where today's visitors head of their own volition. The Tai Kwun Contemporary located on its grounds is estimated to host up to 8 art exhibitions every year, plus music and cultural events (such as theatrical performances, workshops, and more) are being scheduled continuously — check their website to see what's on. Don't miss the bar occupying an old prison building.
