The West Kowloon Cultural District

The West Kowloon Cultural District is one of the largest and most significant cultural projects in the world, blending together art, education, open space, hotel, office and residential developments and retail, dining and entertainment facilities.

Its vision is to create a vibrant cultural quarter for Hong Kong where the local arts scene can interact, develop and collaborate. As a host of arts and cultural facilities that will produce and host world-class exhibitions, performances, and arts and cultural events.

The District's major cultural facilities, the Arts Pavilion, the Art Park, Freespace, the Hong Kong Palace Museum, M+ and the Xiqu Centre are already open and present a diverse and exciting programme of events.

Victoria Harbour

There is no attraction in the city that is more iconic than the skyline of Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour. In fact, one can say that the harbour was the very birthplace of the city itself. The deep waters between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula are why a collection of fishing villages grew to become an international centre of trade. Today, the harbour is still the city’s throbbing heart and its iconic skyline is also one of the world’s most stunning urban landscapes. With such a skyline, it deserves to been seen at more than one angle.

Ngong Ping 360

The world-renowned cable car experience offers day tours and packages for your in-depth tour around Lantau, Hong Kong!

The Ngong Ping Cable Car ride connects Tung Chung with Ngong Ping and offers the serene panorama of Lantau, Hong Kong. Ngong Ping Terminal is right next to Ngong Ping Village - the best starting point to reach other Hong Kong attractions such as the Big Buddha, Po Lin Monastery, Tai O fishing village, etc. Ngong Ping Village is the home to recreation, shopping, and four entertaining themed attractions loved by locals and tourists alike!

The Peak

The highest point on Hong Kong Island, this has been the city's most exclusive neighborhood since colonial times – back then it was the cooler air that attracted the rich and famous; in the post air-conditioning era, the views of one of the world's most spectacular cityscapes keep them coming.

That view is also what makes The Peak one of the most popular attractions in Hong Kong. By day your eyes stretch across sparkling skyscrapers and Victoria Harbour all the way to the green hills of the New Territories. In early evening this panorama melts into pink and orange before reincarnating as a dazzling galaxy of light, shimmering beneath you. And if you listen carefully enough, you can hear Asia's world city humming below.

Avenue of Stars

Thanks to the efforts of Hong Kong's movie industry over the past century, many in Asia and farther afield are familiar with the city's sights before they've even set foot here. The Avenue of Stars pays tribute to the names that helped make Hong Kong the 'Hollywood of the East', while giving visitors a panoramic view of the city's most iconic sight: its glorious skyline, dramatically set against the Peak.

With commemorative plaques, celebrity handprints, descriptive milestones, movie memorabilia, a life-size statue of kung fu action hero Bruce Lee, a singer, actress and undisputed superstar Anita Mui as 'the Daughter of Hong Kong' and a bronze rendering of popular cartoon character McDull, the Avenue of Stars fittingly sets the glamour of Hong Kong's film industry against the captivating dazzle of Victoria Harbour.

Hong Kong Disneyland

Hong Kong Disneyland Resort is unlike any other attractions in the city. This is where magic happens, where your dreams come true. With a wide variety of rides and attractions, photo opportunities with popular Disney characters, whimsical shows and experiences for all ages, it’s no wonder the resort is often described as ‘The Happiest Place’ on earth.

Ocean Park

Ocean Park Hong Kong is a marine-life theme park featuring animal exhibits, thrill rides and shows. In 2012, its impressive ability to offer guests a world-class experience that blends entertainment with education and conservation was confirmed when it became the first Asian winner of the biannual Applause Award, the most prestigious award in the amusement and theme park industry. Water World is the Asia's first all-weather, year-round seaside water park.

The park is located on the southern side of Hong Kong Island, covering more than 870,000 square metres. The Waterfront and The Summit areas are connected by the Cable Car and Ocean Express funicular train.
