It combines all cultures to make it one of the most thrilling places on earth. There are so many things to do in Hong Kong that it may be hard for you to decide how to prioritize among them. The city offers a number of top attractions for children and adults of all ages. Let Hong Kong Private Tour Guide introduce you to Hong Kong’s top 22 activities.
Hop on the iconic Star Ferry Historic (and super cheap) transportation taking locals between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.
Climb up The Peak via the Peak Tram The quickest and most picturesque way to get up to The Peak, Hong Kong’s Island’s highest point, rising 1,300 feet above sea level as it passes the city’s buildings at an almost impossible gradient.
Meet the Big Buddha Tian Tan Buddha (more commonly referred to as just the Big Buddha) is the largest outdoor seated Buddha in the world. Visitors must climb a calf-aching 268 steps before reaching to the statue.
Chow down on Michelin-starred dim sum A local neighbourhood gem offering some of the best dim sums in Hong Kong. This is your chance to dine at one of the cheapest Michelin-starred restaurants in the world.
Rummage for hidden gems at the Temple Street Night Market A nightly street bazaar where hundreds of stalls pop up after the sun goes down offering a dizzying array of knick-knacks.
Party with the best in Lan Kwai Fong The city’s ground zero for debauchery. Tourists, expats and locals alike party hard in Hong Kong’s most popular nightlife spot and the steep street.
Happy Valley Racecourse This is city’s one of two racecourses for horseracing and the only sport on which the people of Hong Kong can legally bet.
Marvel at incredible gilded statues at 10,000 Buddhas Monastery Hong Kong’s most colourful and amusing Buddhist temples, the monstery is home to life- sized, gold-painted Buddha statues, each entertainingly unique.
Burn calories with a view at Dragon’s Back A popular and picturesque hike that offers stunning views of Tai Tam, Shek O and Big Wave Bay as you walk along the mountain ridge.
Get your culture on at Tai Kwun Centre for Heritage and Art A massive independent art space repurposed from a 150-year-old police station. The art hub consists of 16 heritage buildings, art galleries and various quality bars and restaurants.
Experience riding the ding-dings via Hong Kong Trams Hong Kong’s trams are a city icon and the method of public transport that best retains an old- school feel – where you get on at the back and pay by the driver as you exit at the front.
Get spiritual at Wong Tai Sin Temple One of Hong Kong’s biggest and busiest temples, Wong Tai Sin Temple is home to three religions: Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism.
Meet adorable pandas at Hong Kong Ocean Park The city’s original and popular marine theme park, Ocean Park is home to many adrenaline- inducing amusement rides and animal habitats of both the aquatic and land-based variety.
Ride the famous Central to Mid-Levels Escalator The world’s longest outdoor covered escalator system, linking Central to Mid-Levels.
Eat at Australian Dairy Company Regarded as one of the best cha chaang tengs in town – essentially the Hong Kong equivalent of a greasy spoon.
Listen to the songbirds at Yuen Po Street Bird Garden A modestly-sized market home to a wide variety of birds from delicate canaries to colourful parrots, hand-crafted bamboo bird cages, as well as various live crickets and grasshoppers.
Put on your best costumes for the Hong Kong Sevens The Rugby Sevens is the premier tournament on the World Rugby Sevens Series competition that takes place every year over a weekend in late March or early April. But really, it’s the biggest outdoor party of the year.
Walk around the incredible rock formations on Tung Ping Chau One of over 250 outlying islands in the Hong Kong territory, Tung Ping Chau a Unesco-listed site where you can hike, climb and swim for the day.
Catch the terrifying action at Dragon Boat Festival A traditional Chinese festival taking place on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Lunar calendar (which usually falls around May or June) that sees local and overseas teams compete and battle it out in colourful dragon boats as part of the annual celebrations.
Wine and dine with jaw-dropping views at Wooloomooloo A popular Australian steakhouse offers a none-too-shabby view of Wan Chai, Victoria Harbour and Tsim Sha Tsui without feeling removed from the city.
Rock out at Clockenflap Clockenflap is the city’s biggest music and arts festival that takes place over a weekend with a world-class line-up.
Taste amazing seafood on Jumbo Kingdom A floating restaurant at the Aberdeen Promenade that serves up an array of quality seafood dishes, dim sum and splendid Cantonese cuisine.
