Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Dragons Back is a must do hike in Hong Kong. The view is breathtaking. To get here, you take the Chai Wan Line To the starting point: From MTR Shau Kei Wan Station Exit A, walk to the Shau Kei Wan Bus Terminus to take bus number 9 and get off on the Dragons Back stop on Shek O Road. Before you start the hike there are a couple of toilets and you wont find any along the way until the end. It takes a couple of hours and you have shorter hike options too

I love this place. If you only have a few days in Hong Kong then you won’t have time on your itinerary to go to Shek O but if you have longer, this is a brilliant beach location. It feels like you are seeing the hidden side of Hong Kong that most tourists don't get to see. It is a strikingly picturesque beach cradled between two mountains and looking out towards several small islands. It’s worth making a day of it. You don't need to take much with you. Beach chairs and umbrellas can be hired there. You can bargain but they’re not expensive anyway ($20HKD for a beach chair) and they will carry them down to the sand for you. It all has a cool, village feel, with cheap and cheerful local restaurants back up on the road. We particularly like the large ‘Shek O Thai’ restaurant on the corner. After lunch, if you make your way through the maze of tiny lanes and whitewashed houses, you may even be lucky enough to come across the well-hidden Ben’s Bar down on the waterfront of a secluded cove. PRACTICAL TIPS: The beach is patrolled and has lifeguards but be aware, that it can have rips from time to time. There are toilets, change-rooms and showers on the beach. You can rent umbrellas and chairs and there are several shops where you can buy inflatables, buckets and spades, hats, water etc GETTING THERE: It is a bit off the beaten track so by public transport from Central/Admiralty, you’ll need to first catch the MTR train on the island line to Shau Kei Wan station (exit B) and then get the No 9 bus. I caught an Uber which took just under 30 mins and cost $198HKD, which is pretty much what I'd expect to pay in a taxi. There were 4 of us but even with 2 people, it’s worth remembering that taxis are relatively cheap in Hong Kong and it will be so much quicker.

One of the world's most beautiful theme parks and ranked as the 7th most popular theme parks in the world by Forbes - the home-grown destination includes an iconic Marine Land, Amazing Asian Animals (giant pandas, red pandas, asian otters, etc.), and cable cars as well as state-of-the-art, world-class facilities such as Polar Adventure, Thrill Mountain, and Aqua City.
Had a fantastic day at Ocean Park, great for all ages, loved the Pandas and the 360 tower, rides were fun and the dolphin show was amazing, would highly recommend a visit. Reasonable price, Cable car view was brilliant.

I took my husband and our two teenagers to island on a Monday. To avoid crowds in the weekend. We took the ferry at Admiralty Pier 5. The ride took us roughly 45 mins each way. We were planning to do “islands” hopping from one island to another. Upon to our arrival to Cheung Chau, we decide to spend the whole day there. No car. No transit there. You can rent bicycles at the piers upon arrival. Or like us, we walk around by foot. And rent the tricycles for an hour for fun. Along the coast are seafoods eateries one after another. And make sure you venture to allies. Tons of tons of street food! Don’t miss slice frozen water melon on the stick! Moo-chi are freshly made daily with multiple favors like mango and my favorite Durian ???? Curry fish balls, golden bubbles and more and more! Great great original local native fish balls fish cakes and rice noodles!

Whether you choose to get here by taxi to Sai Wan Pavilion and and then hiking or by speedboat from Sai Kung, visiting here is an absolute must. For the the most part, the sand is clean and soft, the water clear and clean. On all these counts, things get better further north. Overall, this series of beaches is just stunning!

Did Section 1 of the Wilson Trail in two goes: first from Wong Nai Chung Reservoir to Tze Kong Bridge in September. Weather was sunny, hot about 30c and very humid. The start from the petrol station at the bus stop is not obvious. You need to head up Tai Tam R road & past Parkview then turn right where there is a sign Wilson Trail. Steady climb to Violet Hill then down to the saddle and the bridge. From here, take right turn (not clearly signposted) on a track that takes you to South Bay Close and a bus stop on Repulse Bay Road. Tackled Section 2 from Stanley Gap Road to the bridge in December. Weather much better for hiking. Better direction as you go down the 1,000 steps on The Twins rather than up. Be careful that you get the bus driver to stop at the Wilson Trail stop as ours roared straight through!

For the complete Peak experience without the tourist traps, ride up on Bus # 15, and start the hike at Lugard road, with its numerous overlooks - then hike up to High West at the intersection with Hatton and Harlech. There are many steep steps, but they are small, and the hike should not be a problem for a fit person (carry plenty of water on hot days, as there aren't vending machines nearby).The 360 % view is spectacular. Even in less-than-perfect visibility, the sight of Lantau island's peaks poking out of the fog will be stunning. Morning Trail is relatively easy to hike up or down. Note that the top of Victoria Peak itself is closed to visitors because of its cellphone and TV towers - High West is the next best alternative.

The Edward Youde Aviary is one of the best wildlife attractions in the city, it should be listed here on Tripadvisor.
I could have spent hours here admiring all of the beautiful birds. Such a nice place to go to get away from the busy city and listen to the sounds of many different tropical birds. Keep your eyes open, some are really hard to spot! Free!
