Hongkong Travel Guide

.Hong Kong (Chinese: 香港; pinyin: Xiānggǎng), the Oriental Pearl, officially the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, is one of two special administrative regions of the People's Republic of China, the other being Macau. Located to the east of the Zhujiang River, Hong Kong adjoins Shenzhen on the north and faces the Nanhai Sea(South China Sea). It consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, New Territories and the 183 small islands.

Hong Kong occupies the extension of the hilly land south of Nanling Ridge and has a subtropical maritime climate. The annual mean temperature is 22.8°C, and the annual average precipitation is 2225 mm. Autumn is the best season in a year. The main scenic spots include the History Museum, Botanical Garden, Ocean Park and Taiping Hill(Victoria Peak), etc. Besides, Tai O, a town on Lantau Island reputed as the Venice of HHong Kong is also worth visiting. It abounds in temples, Tin Hau Temple is one of the most famous ones.

Kowloon is another flourishing part of Hong Kong. Above all, Causeway Bay, Wan Chai , Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok are the most popular areas. These areas are busy day and night, and tourists can feel secure enjoying the lively nightlife, because Hong Kong is one of the most secure cities in the world. The New Territories and Outlying Islands are ideal places to experience a peaceful and natural Hong Kong.

Set among beautiful natural surroundings it has all the benefits of a thriving and vibrant commercial center. Here you can find the delights of modern living alongside an abundance of reminders of its historic past. Whether you visit the better known highlights like the stunning Ocean Park, the fantastic viewpoint of Victoria Peak or the beautiful Repulse Bay , Hong Kong is certain to exceed your expectations.

An open city with a wonderful natural harbor, Hong Kong is the meeting place of various cultures that blend harmoniously with Chinese traditions and exotic influences. On one hand traces of British culture can be found everywhere as a result of former colonial rule. On the other hand, Hong Kong preserves traditional customs and the core values of Confucianism that have faded in Mainland China. This is reflected in its colorful festivals ranging from Spring Festival to Christmas. Nowhere else on earth do luxury restaurants, street side food-stalls known locally as dai pai dong, grand mansions and penthouses, tenements, office blocks, wooden boats and huge liners coupled with English in a variety of accents and multifarious Chinese dialects coexist peacefully.
