Best Things to Do in Hong Kong

No doubt about it: Hong Kong will surprise you. There's no way to prepare for the awe-inspiring view from Victoria Peak or for the Symphony of the Stars lightshow from the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade. Against the verdant terrain, glittering skyscrapers have never looked so beautiful. Taking in Hong Kong's atmosphere is half the joy of being here. The other half is equally exciting: With Hong Kong Disneyland, Ocean Park, and Happy Valley Racecourse, there are options for every interest.
