Hong Kong
It's impossible not to be captivated by Hong Kong at first glance—an astonishingly vertical city set against a breathtaking island backdrop. As you explore further, the unforgettable cuisine, dynamic nightlife, and exceptional shopping experiences become clear, and before you know it, you're completely enchanted.
This contemporary urban hub has rapidly risen to global prominence, transitioning from British colonial roots to remarkable wealth and influence on the international stage. This surge in power has brought complex tensions with the Chinese government, which seeks to assert greater control over the territory. Nevertheless, for now, this extraordinary city continues to hold its irresistible charm.

Hong Kong flushes its toilets with sea water - it is a city with high population density and limited natural resources. The city has a unique approach to water conservation.

There is a “Venice of Hong Kong” - Tai O is an old fishing village known as the Venice of Hong Kong. It is on the western side of Lantau Island and stilt houses rise above the water. It is one of the few places in Hong Kong where you can still see the traditional way of life of the Tanka people, who have lived on boats for generations.
