Hong Kong - China

Hong Kong, a high-energy city with soaring skyscrapers, sprawling malls, theme parks and delectable food.  Despite its vibrant commercial centre and modern architecture, there is plenty about Hong Kong that reminds you of an earlier time. The Tian Tan Buddha, for example, is one of the iconic monuments of the world and it is well worth the 260 steps it takes to reach it.

If you fancy a challenge, scale Victoria Peak – a mountain scaling 552m high, but it’s worth the trek just to see the captivating views of Hong Kong’s skyline.
