Hong Kong Sights, China

By Jonny Blair


Hong Kong is the perfect place to be a tourist in China. There are so many sights to see when backpacking, especially if you happen to be doing so on a budget. Whether your interests lie in the cultural, natural or adventurous aspects of the region, there is sure to be something to make your trip worthwhile.

Here are some of the really cool top spots and sights in Hong Kong:

The skyline in Hong Kong is epic. It's widely regarded as the number one skyline on the planet, eclipsing even New York and Singapore. You'll want to check out an awesome view of Hong Kong and the best places to do that are the Peak, Tsim Sha Tsui and Kowloon waterfront. Amazing city!

Get yourself over to Lantau Island when you are touring Hong Kong as here sits the big Buddha. This is a massive statue worth checking out. You can even do it on a tight budget by walking up to it instead of taking the cable car. It does get very busy at times and offers tremendous views over the skyline and outlying islands of Hong Kong.

There are a few quiet spots to sample in Hong Kong too, including Nan Lian Garden. Hong Kong has its peaceful parts too for sure and it's good to get out of the city hub at times too and sample this peaceful life. They are inspired and influenced by gardens in some of China's main provinces.

You also have Hong Kong Park. Yes in amongst the madness and mayhem is a massive park where there are birds, trees and butterflies. This place has tea shops and cafes and is a good place to relax while on Hong Kong island. There is a man made waterfall within too and you can chill out there. Don't believe that Hong Kong is all about skyscrapers.

In terms of hiking and scenic walks, Hong Kong also offers a lot in this regard. One of the best hiking trails is known as the dragon's back. This is on Hong Kong island. It tests the muscles and also offers scintillating views over the splendid city and countryside and further out to sea.

All in all Hong Kong is a fantastic city and is the ultimate place to go travelling to when you think of Asia.
