Hong Kong is said to have multiple personalities. A lot of beautiful spots and attractions can be seen in the region – perfectly satisfying the cravings of people for total entertainment and relaxation; and definitely proving that purchasing an air ticket to Hong Kong is a good decision.


A small country it is, but it is gifted with natural beauty and is furnished with awe-inspiring modernity. The most popular tourist attractions in Hong Kong are as follows:

1. The Peak
Hong Kong flaunts a very beautiful skyline and there is no other place in the region that could give a more stunning view of it other than The Peak. Located a few hundred meters above sea level, this spot surely provides a good escape from the bustles of the downtown. The air is fresh and lush greens abound. Though quite commercialized already, The Peak is still an ideal destination for people who wish to calm their minds and souls. 

2. Victoria Harbour
Splendid particularly at night, the Victoria Harbour is definitely a precious gem for the tourism industry of Hong Kong. It is one of the places that people will never get tired of. The main feature in the area is the Symphony of Lights wherein colorful light beams can be seen dancing on the blank sky, as emitted by more than 40 skyscrapers by the harbor. It is a magnificent sight to see, especially while on a romantic cruise across the river.

3. Ocean Park Hongkong
Since its opening in 1977, Ocean Park Hong Kong has always been a great attraction. It houses fascinating animals like pandas, monkeys, rodents, alligators, salamanders, and more species that are natives of Asia. It also has an amusement park wherein the main attraction is a 360-degree water-screen show.

4. Hong Kong Disneyland
One reason why one should purchase an air ticket to Hong Kong is the Hong Kong Disneyland. The fare to this magical world is relatively cheaper so people will have more cash intended for fun in the park. Features include rides, parks, and encounters with Disney characters like Mickey Mouse, Daffy Duck, and the Disney Princesses.

5. Ping Shan Heritage Trail
To fully appreciate Hong Kong, one has to understand its history and to do so, tourists must visit the Ping Shan Heritage Trail. It gives home to ancient pagodas, temples, and edifices in which walls the colorful and rich history of the region is etched.  It is a haven for photographers. 


There are lots of other places in Hong Kong which tourists must discover for themselves. It is certainly worth the visit.
