Hong Kong Disneyland has a new Castle of Magical Dreams. Water World Ocean Park is Asia’s one and only year-round, all-weather waterfront water park! Peak Tram reopened with a newly-designed tramcar. Legoland Discovery Centre opened in Kowloon, as did the swanky K11 Musea mall. Revitalised Central Market is filled with local market stalls, start ups and food experiences.
One can say that the harbour was the very birthplace of the city. 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.
Hong Kong has undergone an art renaissance in the past decade, with the influx and inception of international and home-grown art spaces all around town. A renewed appreciation of the city’s origins and way of life is expressed through the celebration of local traditions and culture, as the population becomes increasingly introspective and retrospective. Festivals, ceremonies, rituals, traditions... in Hong Kong, there is rich intangible culture around every corner.
We recommend visiting Wing, by award-winning Chef Vicky Cheng, and JAJA with its fun and most fashionable vegetarian delights. KIN Food Halls is a new, immersive and exciting dining destination that turns dishes into reels wiht a ‘food playlist’ of over 200 dishes. South Herbal Lab is a new cafe concept by traditional herbal tea brand Wing Sang Tong, while PENICILLIN turns patrons into ambassadors for sustainability through the farm-to-table movement.
Arguably Hong Kong’s most Instagrammable destination, Sweet Gum Woods bursts into fiery colour once the temperature dips. The resort town of Discovery Bay offers breathtaking nature, outdoor adventures and fine restaurants only a 25-minute ferry ride from the heart of the city. Challenge yourself with a hike along the High Junk Peak Country Trail for sweeping views of Hong Kong’s Clearwater Bay peninsula.
