Thriving with an energy like no other, Hong Kong may be dubbed the ‘World’s Most Vertical City’, but it offers far more than impressive skylines.

Here, a whirlwind fusion of east and west traditions mix with imperial history and the ultra-modern. Upmarket boutiques, designer brands and giant tech stores collide with bustling street markets offering collectibles and antiques. Hong Kong is undoubtedly a shopper’s paradise. In its financial heart, spectacular cuisine of roast goose and dim sum with yum cha (tea) can be relished in exclusive restaurants and sophisticated bars.

Should you desire respite from the hustle and bustle, the city has a wonderful array of green spaces and parks to enjoy. Take a tram up Victoria Peak, or stroll along the waterfront peninsulas of Kowloon for unbeatable views of this fascinating city.
