The fluorescent lights around the harbor are glowing, showing her magnificent figure to the world between the sky and the water.

Hong Kong Disneyland, known as the smallest Disneyland, has unique characteristics. It is the first theme park based on California Disneyland. The seven theme parks in the park make you feel like you are in a fairy tale world. Among them, Grizzly Gulch and Mystic Manor can also experience the unique fun in the world.

The Peak is a place that Hong Kong must not miss. Here you can see all the beautiful scenery of the entire Victoria Harbour. Whether it is day or night, it is an excellent place to take pictures. In addition, the lush trees, stone chairs dotted on the roadside, and the unexpected ancient houses are all extra surprises.

You can feel the urban scenery of Hong Kong on Hong Kong Island, go to the University of Hong Kong to regain your youth, go to Causeway Bay to eat all the Hong Kong delicacies, and then experience the Mid-Levels escalator, Graham Street and other attractions. At night, you can feel the charm of Victoria Harbour on the Peak.

In the following 2-3 days, you can go to the outskirts of Hong Kong away from the hustle and bustle. Lamma Island, located on the southwest side of Hong Kong Island, is known as the Lijiang of Hong Kong. There are no cars here, so you can walk to measure this ancient and mysterious land. If you still have enough energy, you might as well go to Hong Kong Disneyland and Ocean Park to put a perfect end to this trip to Hong Kong.
