Hong Kong Sightseeing Itineraries
I am planning the itinerary by themes and districts at the moment but I'll try
to estimate on the time spent for those who have limited time to stay.
Most districts mentioned here are easily accessed by
public transport.
Map of Hong Kong:
Shopping:
If you enjoy shopping, or if you don't but
you "HAVE TO", you may find some tips there.
Theme Parks / 'Kingdoms':
- Ocean Park - One of the best aquarium in the
world I'll say, plus the new jelly fish aquarium, they are simply fantastic! Don't forget to see the panda!
- Teddy Bear Kingdom in Tsim Sha Tsui in Kowloon
- SnoopyLand - any Snoopy fan?
- DisneyLand - not yet, try again in 2005
