Hong Kong – from bustling street markets to luxurious shopping malls
Here is a list of the best things to see and do from Click A Tour while visiting Hong Kong. From Victoria Peak to dim sum dinners and visits to outlying islands like Lantau and Chung Chau, these are places and activities worth visiting in Hong Kong that you always hear or read about.
Hong Kong is a country that has become a leader in the global arena and is also becoming a popular travel destination. There is also an interactive multimedia exhibition that gives you an immersive insight into the history and culture of Hong Kong and you will get a much deeper sense of the city and there are many lovely people here as well.
Hong Kong's Garden of Stars, the Hong Kong Cultural Center and the Hong Kong Space Museum are also located here. On the west side of Lantau, the island is home to the picturesque fishing village of Tai O where houses are built on stilts and markets sell a variety of dried street seafood dishes. Hong Kong's Fish, Bird and Flower Markets are also ideal places to practice your photography skills, although we cannot recommend buying anything here unless you plan to relocate to Hong Kong.
To fully appreciate the sights, sounds and smells you need to get a feeling for them, and a market is one of the best in the city where you can do that. Here you can find a wide variety of items such as local food, clothing, watches, jade and antiques, a popular shopping place with cheap clothes, shoes, CDs, and DVDs and even household goods. Plus, there are countless grocery stalls to fill your stomach with.
If this is not your scene, you can go on a Michelin food hunt with famous dim sum Tim Ho Wan and new additions to the Kung Wo Tofu and Soybean Shop Street Food Guide and Kwan Kee Dessert Shop. There are semi-floating markets where you can find a variety of seafood and take a boat ride to see the beautiful settlements of Hong Kong.
Close to the city this island has turned into an enjoyable weekend getaway. It is cheaper and quieter than the rest of Hong Kong, which is why the island attracts young people, artists, expats, and musicians. This is one of the best spots to enjoy stunning views of the Hong Kong skyline and vibrant Victoria Harbour.
Take the Star Ferry for views of the Victoria Harbour skyline or take the Star Ferry for views of the Cityscape from the junk boat in Victoria Harbour. There is nothing better than the Sky Terrace to The Peak.
For the best view of the city (especially at night), visit Victoria Peak (commonly referred to simply as the summit); at the summit, admire the sea of skyscrapers and the city's magnificent blue waterways and even the green hills of the distant New Territories, weather permitting. At the summit, you will be rewarded with stunning 180-degree views of the city, Victoria Harbour, Kowloon, and the surrounding hills.
