Backpacking In Hong Kong

By Jonny Blair


Backpacking in China can also take you to Hong Kong. This colossal place has so many sights it will keep you occupied for hours and days. You can do it on a budget too and there is a huge history here. From cultural, religious and natural history up to the present day, this is a great city.

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

Hong Kong has the best skyline in the world, that's the wide opinion in many surveys so even New York and Singapore come second to this beast! There are a load of cool spots to check out the view. I'd recommend Kowloon, Victoria Peak and even just by getting the TST to HK Island ferry.

Over on Lantau Island check out the Big Buddha! This is a major sight and really needs to be seen. Backpackers on a budget can hike up to it, while a cable car is also an option. Views are immense and this is a top tourist spot. Tourists from all over the world love it here.

Don't just think that Hong Kong is all about big skyscrapers and a bustling city. There are some really awesome quiet spots to check out the city too!! These get you away from the noise and busy business lifestyle. Nan Lian Garden is the perfect spot to relax away from the crazy busy streets of the Kong!

The Hong Kong Park is an attraction in the middle of the city that offers multiple activities and sights. Walk through the aviary to see beautiful birds and butterflies or take a trip to the zoo. There is a Tai Chi garden for a moment of peace and quiet and also a tea ware museum and view tower. The man made waterfall and lake are beautiful, with fish and turtles to see.

Hiking wise, Hong Kong also offers a lot. The most famous of these is the dragon's back hiking trail. This offers a good workout for the body and also amazing views. Take your camera, take some water and food and savour these epic views of this cool city. You'll love it.

In short, get yourself out to Hong Kong when you tour Asia as it is a great city with such a wide variety of things to do.
