Hong Kong is an incredibly vibrant, diverse, and even paradoxical city. It seamlessly blends the rural with the urban, boasting as many temples as it does skyscrapers. Comprising over 200 islands, Hong Kong is a unique fusion of Eastern and Western cultures. With so many options to choose from, it can be difficult to decide what to do in this dynamic city.
The essence of Hong Kong is perhaps best reflected in its impressive collection of world records and remarkable achievements. For instance, the city consumes more than three times the global average of tea annually, offers the world’s most affordable Michelin-starred dishes for under $2, hosted the sale of the world’s most expensive bottle of wine ($232,692), and uses Feng Shui principles to influence the design and positioning of its buildings. Additionally, it is home to the world’s largest permanent light and sound show, “A Symphony of Lights.”
