One of the largest Chinese cities, Hong Kong, is home to more than seven million people, and its population is increasing by several tens of thousands of tourists and businessmen every day who arrive in one of the most important metropolitan areas of the planet on business visits. The city is famous for its shops and restaurants, beaches and international exhibitions. Its modern skyscrapers peacefully coexist with the old quarters, and it is not an easy task to get around the whole of Hong Kong in 2 days. That is why it is important to draw up an excursion plan and decide which of the city sights is the most attractive.
Queen's Peak
Having been under British control for many years, Hong Kong has Her Majesty's name in the names of many of its properties. An excursion to Victoria Peak, from which the entire metropolis is visible at a glance, is a great way to get to know Hong Kong.
An important point to consider when planning an excursion is the weather. Smog and fog over a city can make it difficult to see a clear picture. By the way, the funicular, which takes guests to Victoria Peak, is best used in the late afternoon. Skyscrapers lit up with colorful lights look especially colorful at dusk.
Enjoy the sea
Even after being in Hong Kong for 2 days, you can arrange yourself a small beach vacation. The best places for sunbathing are located on the island of the same name. When choosing beaches for relaxation, you should pay attention to important points:
- For gourmets who decide to combine the sea, sun and delicious food, Discovery Bay Beach with many cozy cafes is especially suitable.
- Families with children will feel comfortable at Ripul's Bay on the south coast of Hong Kong.
- Fans of boat trips will appreciate the ferry ride to Ma Wan Island.
Anyone wishing to get the perfect bronze tan in Hong Kong in 2 days should stock up on sunscreen.
Guinness recommends
In Hong Kong, a laser show is held every night, listed in the famous book of records. The largest city skyscrapers with powerful floodlights installed on their roofs are taking part in it. The light show lasts about 15 minutes and is best viewed from the waterfront on the mainland. In a delightful musical and light performance, you can stroll along the pavement and find palm prints on the Avenue of Stars of the most beloved actors who have become heroes of Chinese cinema.
