Some Must-Go Places!

Before coming to Hong Kong, my impression of Hong Kong was this picture.
















It is still true of course, if you are looking forward to the magnificence skyline, you won't be disappointed. However, there are more than just that. Hong Kong is a wonderful places with many sides to its modern city.
Below are some must-see places in this wonderful city.

Big Buddha

















Also known as the Tian Tan Buddha, it is a major center for Buddhism. It symbolizes the harmony between man and nature, people and religion.  

Victoria Peak

















Located in Hong Kong island , it is the highest peak in the island (but not the whole area of Hong Kong). It is one of the best place to observe the Hong Kong skyline.

Lamma Island


















If you are tired of the fast moving life of the Hong Kong business area, Lamma island is just 30 minutes away by ferry. You can experience the beautiful beaches with abundant of seafood. The main transportation for the island is bicycle!

10,000 Buddhas


















The name says it all. This place contains 10,000 statues of Buddhas from the bottom of the hill to the top. Prepare to spend at least 30 to 45 minutes to hike up to the top!


Beside Hong Kong business area, there are many places that make this a very special and unique places. These are many faces of Hong Kong, something about this city made me closer to it more.

I would like to end this post with this quote. An encounter with Hong Kong.
