1. Lion's Pavilion at The Peak

Reviewed By BradJill - Hong Kong, China
The Lion's Pavilion is a multiple-level viewpoint you will find just one minute walk from Peak Tower. This is a free place to visit and also where you find some of the very best views of Victoria Harbour as well as the Hong Kong and Kowloon skylines. This structure here is designed with simple Chinese architecture featuring a traditional moon gate entrance, a small traditional pavilion and a series of small terrace sections, seemingly cobbled together alongside Findlay Road. You'll also see a handful of small lion statues mounted around the terraces. In the end, the Lion Pavilion is a neat place, conveniently located and easy to appreciate given that it is free for everyone to use to see outstanding views over Victoria Harbour.

The main party street on the island, packed with bars.
Reviewed By natlscales - Columbus, United States
The place is safe, fun, amazing. You can get 10 shots for $20 US dollars! Hard Rock Cafe is in the center and is a great place to chill. The cops are cool and no issues what so ever. You can buy your drinks at 7 Eleven and walk around. Open until 6am.. Beware: Taxi drivers will try to screw you on cab fares. Only pay what the law requires, if they don’t comply, tell them you’ll call the local authorities.

Would definitely recommend visiting PMQ on weekends, cool independent shops, restaurants and sometimes a market inside. Nice place to just grab a picnic table and hang out as well. Lots of other sights along the road as well including a Chinese temple
4. Peak Tower

Peak Tower is the terminus for Peak Tram, and also an attraction in its own right. You can buy a combined entry ticket for both (HK$90) and it’s well worth it. The lower part of the Tower is a series of shops with various grades of expensive tat, and some diners. However, further up the escalators is where the real attraction is. Battle you way through the souvenir photo salesmen, and you find yourself on top of the building, with an expansive and vertiginous view of Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong and Kowloon. Behind you is a view to the sea and islands to the west, and this is where the magic lies. Arrive just before dusk, and for the next 30-45 minutes you are treated to an ever-changing scene as the sun sets quickly, and then Hong Kong after dark. The tram can get busy both up and down around this time, so time your journey carefully, but there’s plenty to do on Victoria Peak if you arrive earlier. You can do the trip both during the day and at night, but there’s something magical as one turns into the other. Obviously weather-dependent, but this really is something you really should do whilst visiting Hong Kong.

Hong Kong Central, or if it suits you better, the Central District of Hong Kong, is a do-not-miss place to see if you are on Hong Kong Island. The tall skyscrapers are amazing. The small parks and squares are wonderful. The stores abound with the most famous names in retail present. Just the energy of the Central District will touch you. Try to go down into the Central MTR Station and check it out. Board a Tram in Statue Square and go towards Western Market to capture more of the flavor of Hong Kong Central. Ride the Tram back and go toward Admiralty. Have fun.
