Hong Kong Holidays

Asia’s most cosmopolitan city, Hong Kong dazzles with its intoxicating east meets west vibe. This unique destination blends the legacy of British colonialism with ancient Chinese culture and a modern cityscape with quiet corners brimming with age old traditions. Hong Kong as a whole is made up of 237 islands and has a population of 7 million people. The iconic cityscape that we know so well is that of Hong Kong Island – it and Kowloon on the mainland are where most of the action takes place. That said, 70% of Hong Kong is made up of mountains, so it is easy to escape the city and strike out on a walking trail through incredible scenery – there are even walks around Victoria Peak, Hong Kong Island’s top spot.

Behind the skyscrapers, you’ll find both bustling incense-filled temples and a fantastically varied shopping scene, ranging from sparkling malls to packed market stalls. Hong Kong also has a fantastic transport network, which includes trams and ferries, making any explorations easy. And there is plenty of exploring to do – take the funicular up Victoria Peak for spectacular views; head over to Lantau Island to admire the Tian Tan Buddha; enjoy the hustle and bustle of Kowloon; and so much more. We also can’t talk about Hong Kong without mentioning the food. Whether you like to dine under a Michelin star or the starry sky, the range of foods and flavours is simply incredible.
