A brief introduction to Hong Kong
Home to a world famous skyline, mouth-watering cuisine, and abundant natural beauty, there’s little wonder how Hong Kong earned its nickname ‘Pearl of the Orient’.
For the quintessential Hong Kong experience, take a ride on the historic Peak Tram to Victoria Peak - the highest point on Hong Kong Island. Upon reaching the top, you can marvel at the city’s glittering harbour, iconic skyscrapers, and lush emerald hills. While here, be sure to enjoy a scenic lunch at one of the many restaurants in and around The Peak Galleria.
To get up close and personal with Hong Kong’s natural beauty, there are plenty of hikes available. One of the most popular is Dragon’s Back as it passes through Hong Kong Island and offers picturesque views of rolling mountains and the coastline. We also recommend visiting Lantau Island, where you will discover the massive Tian Tan Buddha.
For a taste of traditional Cantonese cuisine, visit a local ‘cha chaan teng’ (tea restaurant), where you can enjoy local favourites such as wonton noodle soup and sweet and sour pork.
