2024 Hong Kong Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)
Known for being a world-class center of business, culture, and trade, Hong Kong is a jewel in the orient with international flairs. Its iconic skyline, dynamic food scene and multicultural influences attract over 65 million tourists each year. For many, Hong Kong is also a starting point for visiting China and the rest of Asia.Officially the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong is located on the south coast of China, neighboring Guangzhou Province. It is made up of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, and the New Territories (including more than 250 outlying islands). Ranked as the 8th most densely populated city in the world, Hong Kong’s population is made up of mainly Chinese residents. But it is also an international hub of commerce where English and Cantonese are the official languages.Hong Kong wouldn’t be what it is today without its complex past. Though it has existed for thousands of years, in as little as 100 years, Hong Kong went through dramatic transformations from a fishing community in China to a British colony to an international trade center, and eventually back to being part of China again.Like its dense population, Hong Kong has also packed in a tremendous amount of attractions. For example, you can visit one of the city's oldest temples, Man Mo Temple; ride on the Peak Tram for a bird’s eye view of Victoria Harbor; or immerse yourself in the electric atmosphere of Temple Street Night Market. Beyond the urban hustle and bustle, there’s a serene side to Hong Kong. Chill out on the beach in the Sai Kung East Country Park, enjoy a challenging hike on Lantau island’s many trekking trails, or do a little wildlife spotting in Plover Cove Country Park.The most common way to reach Hong Kong is by air. The Hong Kong International Airport has connecting flights to all major domestic and international cities. Visitors can easily find transfer options into different parts of HK, such as taxis, Airport Express trains, and buses. Some hotels offer transfer options too, so it is better to check in advance. Getting around town is also simple and convenient. Visitors can easily reach top attractions by using the extensive and affordable MRT, bus and tram systems.

Savoring Hainan Chicken @ Pak Dang Premium Hainan Chicken Rice
Hainan Chicken Rice is one of Dad's favorite dishes! So, I often keep an eye on the reviews of various Hainan Chicken restaurants. Recently, I saw a friend enjoying a meal at a highly-rated place in Lai Chi Kok, so I decided to give it a try on my day off.
Pak Dang Premium Hainan Chicken Rice is conveniently located in D2 Place, making it easily accessible for us Tung Chung folks.
We ordered the two-person set meal for $228 to share! The set was quite rich, including appetizers, soup, main course, half a Hainan chicken, and a plate of blanched vegetables.
We also ordered drinks separately. Dad, who loves milk tea, chose the King Tea Hong Kong-style milk tea for $20, while I tried the Japanese apple juice for $20.
The soup of the day was a delicious corn, carrot, and pumpkin pork bone soup with no added MSG! The sweet aroma of the vegetables was evident, and it tasted genuinely wholesome.
You can also upgrade the soup to a small Bak Kut Teh for an additional $10! The subtle herbal fragrance was very comforting, and the well-balanced pork ribs were tender and enjoyable.
For the special appetizer, we chose the spicy marinated chicken feet from the three options. The chicken feet were well-marinated with a gentle spiciness and a great texture, making it a perfect starter.
Among the three main course options, we opted for the pan-fried meat patty! It was crispy, not greasy, and had a firm texture. The thickness was just right, making it a perfect match with white rice.
The star of the day, the premium Hainan chicken set, came with half a chicken, perfect for sharing between two people.
The chicken used was a 60-day-old hormone-free and antibiotic-free Ma Huang chicken. The carefully crafted cooking method resulted in crispy skin and tender meat. The golden-yellow chicken skin was smooth and not greasy, while the meat was elastic and extremely tender. The flavor was rich with the aroma of fresh chicken, absolutely delicious.
The three sauces for the Hainan chicken are the soul of the dish! The dark soy sauce was rich and smooth without any bitterness, definitely high quality. The ginger and scallion paste was fragrant and enticing, making it easy to eat a big bowl of white rice. Lastly, the chili sauce, made with various ingredients including Tom Yum, was spicy and flavorful, making one small dish not enough.
The set includes two bowls of rice, with a choice of chicken oil rice or jasmine white rice! The chicken oil rice was dry and not greasy, with a hint of spices, and paired well with the three sauces without being overpowering.
The healthy green vegetable of the day was Chinese lettuce! It looked plain without any oil sheen, but it was surprisingly crisp and flavorful, not needing any oyster sauce to taste great, a pleasant surprise.

Hong Kong: Where Adventure Meets Skyline Magic
Having traveled to Hong Kong multiple times over the past five years, I can confidently say this city has a unique energy that draws you back again and again.
The city center is the heart of it all, where towering skyscrapers dominate the skyline, blending modern architecture with hints of colonial charm.
A highlight every visit is Victoria Harbour, where the dazzling skyline reflects on the water, especially during the nightly Symphony of Lights show. It’s a view that never gets old, no matter how many times you’ve seen it.
The busy streets of Hong Kong with crowds of people weave through markets, shops, and restaurants, creating a constant hum of activity that’s both chaotic and exciting. Hong Kong’s charm lies in its ability to balance this intensity with moments of calm—whether it’s a quiet ferry ride across the harbor or a stroll along the Avenue of Stars.
Each trip has been a new adventure, and I can’t wait to return to this vibrant city!

1 DAY IN HONG KONG DISNEYLAND🏰
The number 1 amusement park in my heart must be Disneyland. This time we came to Hong Kong. We intended to play in the new zone, World of Frozen. In this zone, there are 2 rides. Sliding Sleigh is a roller coaster. This one ended a bit too quickly. It's not scary. The other one is Frozen Ever After. It's a boat ride where you can meet Elsa, Anna, and Olaf. The lights are so beautiful.
We played almost 10 rides. We bought fast passes for 3 rides, excluding Frozen. Overall, we didn't have to wait long. We came on a weekday. I really liked Transformer and Big Grizzly. They were so much fun.
The highlight is the fireworks at night. They're so beautiful. Everyone tells stories through images projected on the castle. I was so impressed.
If you come to Hong Kong, don't miss Disneyland.

Lan Fong Yuen in Hong Kong
I visited Lan Fong Yuen in Central many years ago when I first came to Hong Kong. It wasn't as popular back then. This time, I dined at their Tsim Sha Tsui location during lunchtime. Although there was a long queue, the turnover rate was quick, and we were seated in about ten minutes. The Tsim Sha Tsui branch is relatively cleaner and brighter compared to the Central branch.
They offer set meals, and some main courses come with a buttered bun. We ordered the satay beef with fried egg and instant noodles, which came with a buttered bun, and also had French toast. For drinks, we had iced lemon tea and silk-stocking milk tea. The portion of the instant noodles was huge, about 1.5 to 2 servings! It was very filling. The satay beef was tender, and the buttered bun should be eaten quickly before it gets greasy when cold. The French toast was really delicious, not as greasy or sweet as I expected, but it's best eaten hot. The drinks were not too sweet, and the tea flavor was quite prominent.
Overall, I think Lan Fong Yuen is quite good.
Having High Tea at a Five-Star Hotel.
Address - 88 Queensway, Admiralty
Environment/Facilities - Very high ceilings and large floor-to-ceiling windows
Features - Five-star hotel quality
Average Price - $250 per person
Rating - 8.5 out of 10
Located atop Pacific Place in Admiralty (MTR hub station), the JW Marriott Hotel is very convenient and surrounded by several other five-star hotels, giving it a very upscale feel. The traditional three-tiered afternoon tea is enjoyed in the buffet restaurant area, which is not crowded, and the staff provides attentive service. The desserts and savory items are evenly split, plus four scones, making for a very generous portion. We couldn't finish it all and had to take some home. The overall taste was quite good, with the scones being very fluffy, the savory items outstanding, and the desserts just right. We leisurely enjoyed our afternoon tea while admiring the bustling street view outside the window.
[Recommended Spots]
Introducing recommended spots in Hong Kong!
From tourist attractions to food, we cover a wide range.
1. Monster Building
Known as the filming location for many movies, the 'Monster Building' is a must-see!
Once you step inside, you'll be amazed by the buildings surrounding you!
It was once off-limits, but the restriction has been lifted as of March 2024.
2. THE PENINSULA Hong Kong
Afternoon tea at the famous Peninsula Hong Kong hotel🫖
Served in the lobby, non-guests can also enjoy it by registering on the same day.
I went straight from the airport to the hotel and managed to get in, even being mistaken for a guest by the bellboy.
Spending time listening to live music was elegant🌹
3. Symphony of Lights
When you think of Hong Kong, you think of the Symphony of Lights…!
There are various ways to enjoy it, such as from the promenade or a cruise.
I watched it from the rooftop of the STARFERRY pier!
4. TRAMIC Tour
A tour around Hong Kong Island on a retro tram.
With an audio guide, you can relax and enjoy the tour✨
You can book it on the official website🙆♀️
The day of the tour and the following day offer unlimited tram rides, so it's recommended for those planning to sightsee by tram👀
5. Street Art
At Hotel Madera Hollywood, there are wall arts of Chaplin and Marilyn Monroe.
There is also Hong Kong Shingo Art painted by Shingo Katori🎨
[Other Points]
There are many attractions like SKY100 and Victoria Peak!
When in Hong Kong, don't miss out on dim sum.
Ordered 7 main dishes, snacks, and drinks in Tsim Sha Tsui for only $210??
After watching a movie at 10 PM in Tsim Sha Tsui, if you want to eat something simple, you don't have to worry about finding a place.
There is a noodle shop behind ISQUARE that is famous for its Beef Tripe and Curry Pot‼️
✨Beef Tripe Rice Noodles $65
It's so funny, my partner finished it in no time. He said the beef tripe was tender.
The soup is mild at first, then comes the beef aroma. The rice noodles are not too strong in flavor, just right with the soup😌
✨Fresh Shrimp Wonton Noodles $38
For those who like a strong alkaline taste🧑🤝🧑, you will like this😌. The portion of noodles is quite large.
The four fresh shrimp wontons are quite bouncy and easy to bite.
✨Vegetables (Choy Sum) $9
It's not cheap to eat vegetables outside nowadays. This special price of $9, what do you think?😆
The key is that it's not fibrous!! The texture is just right~ very suitable for someone eating noodles alone to have a small dish🥬 to be healthy.
✨King Fried Pork Chop $40
It's quite tender~ don't worry about the dark color being too strong in flavor. It's well-seasoned, not fatty, and easy to bite off the bone.
✨Fried Wontons $38
Crunchy~ fried food lovers will like it! The chefs fry the whole wonton until it's hot and crispy.
Be careful when eating, it might be hot. One bite and it's crunchy🥰. The skin is not too thin but fried thoroughly.
✨Iced Milk Tea $11
The tea has a subtle fragrance. For those who are afraid of sweetness, remember to ask for less sugar.
Otherwise, it might cover the milk flavor (but still has a bit of the tea shop feel🤣).
✨Iced Soy Milk $9
It's in a bottle!! It says made in Hong Kong on it~ Only $9 for a big bottle, which is nice and convenient to take away.
But there's no option for less sugar, only a specific sweetness level. So for those who usually prefer unsweetened, you might want to pass on this haahaaha.
The portions are quite large. Don't eat beforehand, or you won't be able to try their other snacks.
Next time, I also want to try their Curry Pot and Pork Knuckles🤤.

Hong Kong Disneyland
On Saturdays in November, it's classified as Tier 2. With early park entry, you can enter the park at 9 AM even though it officially opens at 10 AM. Once inside, we headed straight to the Frozen area! Along the way, we reminded each other not to get distracted by empty scenic spots for photos and to prioritize the rides first!
Frozen is a place I've always wanted to visit. Upon entering the area, the Frozen-themed decorations were so beautiful that we couldn't help but exclaim, 'Wow! So pretty!' There are two attractions: Frozen Ever After and Snowy Mountain Sleds. We first went on Frozen Ever After, and the first thing we saw was Olaf! So cute! It brought back all the memories of watching Frozen. Slowly, other characters started to appear, accompanied by some small surprises. Seeing Elsa sing 'Let It Go' was incredibly moving! We even went on it again in the evening while waiting for the light show, with about a 30-minute wait. The other ride, Snowy Mountain Sleds, is a small roller coaster and quite fun.
After finishing with Frozen around 9:30 AM, we quickly took photos with the castle while there were fewer people. We took tons of photos from all angles! After that, we quickly went to ride The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, which was also super cute. Lastly, we rode Dumbo the Flying Elephant, enjoying the breeze while spinning in the air.
After 10 AM, the crowd started to build up. We then headed to Tomorrowland and rode Hyperspace Mountain, which made me so dizzy that I almost threw up. Because of this, we skipped the Astro Orbiter and quickly left the area as we weren't very interested in it.
Next, we waited for lunchtime by strolling around Main Street, U.S.A., where we saw Chip and Dale and lined up for photos! When the restaurants opened, we went to the Royal Banquet Hall for lunch. After eating, we watched Mickey and the Wondrous Book, a half-hour show in Cantonese with subtitles. It was very touching and a fantastic performance worth watching. During the wait, we also reserved a spot for the Forest Theater, which featured a Frozen show. It wasn't as impressive or worthwhile. At the Enchanted Candy House, they sold Olaf-shaped ice cream, which was milk-flavored and super cute.
The park's app also has AR features. In the Frozen area, there are two spots where you can take photos or videos with Olaf and Grandpa Pabbie.
Next, we went to Grizzly Gulch for the Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars. At first, it didn't seem very thrilling, but just when we thought it was over, it suddenly got exciting and gave us a good scare. Overall, it was very fun!
We then got ice cream with our meal vouchers from a roadside stand. We chose the Minnie Mouse one, with a mango-flavored yellow bow and a strawberry-flavored pink part. It was very sweet. We also saw Minnie Mouse and lined up for photos! So cute!
Next, we went to Mystic Point and rode Mystic Manor. Not knowing much about the cartoon, we found it a bit boring. We then slowly walked to the closed Toy Story Land, admired the decorations, took some photos, and slowly walked back to the castle area. We got caramel-flavored popcorn, which was surprisingly delicious, and waited for the 5:15 PM parade. Initially, we thought the parade started near the entrance, but it actually started near the castle.
After the parade, we had dinner at the River View Cafe. During this time, we learned that due to bad weather, there would be no fireworks, only a light show. After much hesitation, we decided to stay for the light show. To pass the time, we rode Frozen Ever After again, which was still very moving.
Finally, we returned to the castle area to wait for the fireworks. It started raining heavily, and we were unsure whether to give up or wait. We took shelter in a store until the rain stopped just in time for the light show. Despite the rain and fatigue, it was worth staying. Even without fireworks, the light show was spectacular. This Disneyland trip was truly worthwhile and touching!
Disney cartoons carry childhood and teenage memories, especially when visiting Disneyland with friends as an adult. It leaves a lasting impression. After returning home, I kept listening to Disney songs.
Early park entry attractions:
Cinderella Carousel, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Frozen Ever After, and Snowy Mountain Sleds.
Hidden Beautiful Park in Tai Po District
📍Address: Yuen Chau Tsai Section, Tai Po Road, Tai Po
🏖️Environment/Facilities: Quiet and comfortable sea view
🕰️Opening Hours: 24 hours
💰Average Cost: Free
When mentioning Tai Po District, many people only know Tai Po Waterfront Park. However, the nearby Yuen Chau Tsai Park is also very beautiful. The park retains the traditional fishing village atmosphere, has a good natural environment, offers distant views of Pat Sin Leng and Ma On Shan, and faces Tolo Harbour, providing stunning scenery that is refreshing. From Tai Po Market MTR Station, take bus K18 and get off at Kwong Fuk Estate. Walk straight along Kwong Wang Street and turn left; you will reach the park entrance in just a few minutes. It is also a popular gathering place for cyclists because it has public toilets and water dispensers. If you walk along the seaside of the park, you will reach Tai Po Waterfront Park after crossing Yuen Chau Tsai Bridge. In the other direction, you can walk from the park to Pak Shek Kok Promenade, giving you multiple options.
Take stunning beach photos.
📍Address: Duck Bay, Pak Nai, Tuen Mun
🏖️Environment/Facilities: Unobstructed sea view
💰Average cost: Free
Duck Bay is a must-visit spot when going to Pak Nai. It is an excellent location for watching the sunrise and sunset. There is a paid parking lot next to the public restroom at the entrance, where you can park motorcycles and private cars. There is a small shop at the gate where you can buy some snacks. The best part is that there is a faucet at the entrance, making it convenient for everyone to rinse their shoes/feet after playing. It takes about 5 minutes to walk to the beach, where you can see the Shenzhen Bay Bridge and Shekou on the opposite side. There is also a mangrove forest. However, it is strongly recommended to check the weather conditions and tide tables before setting off, as the most beautiful time is when the sunset coincides with the lowest tide. For those who are afraid of mosquitoes, please take mosquito repellent measures. In terms of transportation, you can only take minibusses or taxis, and the waiting time during weekends can be very long.

Hong Kong | A Literary Stroll in a Newly Established Cultural Landmark within an Old Building
In the bustling and busy Wan Chai
There stands a renovated, retro-elegant white building
Nestled in a relatively quiet street
Housing the newly established Hong Kong Literature Museum 📕
The city is too noisy
Fortunately, there is a world of words where we can escape for a moment of peace
Reality is too overwhelming
Fortunately, there is a sea of books where we can dream and fantasize
The birth of the Hong Kong Literature Museum
Seems to create a spiritual utopia
For this land of materialism
The Hong Kong Literature Museum is located in a historic building built in 1920
A typical four-story Cantonese-style tenement building
After revitalization, it still retains the old red brick walls 🧱🧱
Chinese-style sloping tile roof, French doors and windows, and wooden stairs
The exterior wall has been restored to the black and white colors of the early 20th century, simple and elegant
Injecting a rich Hong Kong literary flavor into the old building
Inside the museum, in addition to the introduction of Hong Kong's literary culture and history
There are also handwritten works by many writers
Movies 🎬, TV dramas, and stage plays adapted from literary works
You can also borrow books for free in the casual reading room
Quietly flowing in the vibrant world of ink and paper 📖

Great Places for Yum Cha in Kwun Tong
Kwun Tong has many restaurants, usually located in APM or Crocodile Center. This time, we chose Die Xi Ju in Yuen Shing Center instead.

It retains the original non-stair-stepped stone streets that existed when Hong Kong opened as a port. The paved stone streets were designed to facilitate people carrying sedans or horseback riding. The end of the stone streets was the seaside of Hong Kong Island.

Ocean Park in Hong Kong
Certainly! Here's a brief introduction to Ocean Park in Hong Kong:
Ocean Park Hong Kong is a renowned marine-themed park located on the southern side of Hong Kong Island. Established in 1977, it has since become one of the city's most popular tourist attractions, offering a unique blend of entertainment, education, and conservation.
Spread across 91.5 hectares, the park is divided into two main areas: The Summit and The Waterfront. The Summit, accessible via the iconic Cable Car, offers thrilling rides, animal exhibits, and stunning ocean views. The Waterfront, located at the park's entrance, is home to more family-friendly attractions, including the Grand Aquarium and the Adventure Land.
One of the park's highlights is the Ocean Express, a kid-friendly roller coaster that takes visitors on a simulated journey through the ocean's depths. The park is also committed to wildlife conservation and operates one of the world's largest aquariums, housing a diverse array of marine life.
In addition to its thrilling rides and educational exhibits, Ocean Park hosts various events throughout the year, including Halloween and Christmas celebrations, making it a dynamic destination for visitors of all ages. With its commitment to sustainability and its focus on providing memorable experiences, Ocean Park continues to be a cherished part of Hong Kong's cultural landscape.

Five-Star Hotel Dim Sum Buffet!
Lunchtime is the best time for tea! Recently, my friends and I went to @ at the Harbour Grand Hong Kong to enjoy a 150-minute dim sum buffet😍 With up to 45 types of special dim sum, roasted meats, small dishes, and desserts to choose from🤩 The environment is luxurious, and the hotel-level service made everyone super happy!
As soon as we sat down, each of us was served a bowl of chayote fish soup, which was rich and delicious👍🏻 Then we had a piece of fish maw, which was nourishing and good for the skin💕 Next, we tried the abalone puff with oyster sauce, which had a crispy crust and was both delicious and exquisite🥰
When it comes to tea, dim sum is a must! There were many types of dim sum available, and my favorite shrimp dumplings and siu mai were unlimited and fantastic☺️ The hot and large char siu buns were soft and filled with ingredients, and the heart-shaped char siu pastries were fragrant and crispy, looking and tasting great😋
The best part was the unlimited roasted meats😍 and they were of high quality👍🏻 The char siu was full of honey flavor, soft, and had the right balance of fat and lean meat. The crispy roast pork belly with mustard was amazing😋 There were also many appetizers like jellyfish with cucumber, sesame eggplant, and small dishes like XO sauce radish cake and rice rolls, all of which were very tasty🤤
After eating, there were still desserts! There were many types of sweet soups and cakes to choose from, and the must-try mango sago was rich in mango flavor and very sweet. The hot jujube cake had a chewy texture and a strong flavor, and the crispy egg twists were sweet and crunchy💕
The environment, food, and service were all excellent, very satisfying😌

Address: 5/F, Harbour Grand Hong Kong, 23 Oil Street, North Point
High quality roasted meat 🥩
The standard of this barbecue restaurant is really high! We tried two different lunch sets and were very satisfied! The package already includes salad, soup, snacks and dessert. The salad is fresh, the soup contains kelp, and the snack is beef tongue.
First up is the beef tongue platter for $148. The quality of the beef tongue is very good, thick and tender, and tastes great after grilling. Add onion to eat delicious 😋 We also added $ 20 to switch to Aomori apple lactic soda, sweet and sour, very refreshing!
The other is the black hair wagyu barbecue set for $368, which is even more luxurious! The wagyu butter flowers are evenly distributed, melts in your mouth, rich in oil aroma and rich in taste. It is definitely high-quality wagyu beef! We added $8 for Kobe Teahouse Oolong tea. The tea is fragrant and goes great with wagyu beef! In addition, I also added $48 for a chicken leg, which was tender.
The food of this barbecue restaurant is high quality, the service attitude is also good, the environment is comfortable, definitely worth recommending!

Hong Kong's First Large-Scale Fresh Seafood Hotpot Buffet
My boss took me to eat seafood. We haven't been to the Taikoo Shing mall for a long time, and it has really changed a lot. The fresh seafood just opened yesterday, and my boss said it's a great deal. We had to try it right away while they are offering discounts. 😁
Fresh Seafood Hotpot Buffet
Lunch 12:00-16:00 · All-you-can-eat for 4 hours $248
Dinner after 17:00 · All-you-can-eat for 2 hours $268 and up
We came in the evening, and there were quite a few people. The place is spacious and looks very clean. No need to wait for a table. Right at the entrance, there's fresh seafood. The shrimps are all jumping and very fresh. The abalone sticks tightly and can still move when picked up. There are also super fresh oysters. 🦪
More than 10 types of fresh seafood to choose from. Besides the self-service area, you can order over 40 types of meat, snacks, skewers, durian, and more via QR code.
It's so easy to get your money's worth. At this price, there's no need to go all the way to mainland China for seafood. 😆

A Must-Visit: Hong Kong International Airport
📍Address: 1 Cheong Tat Road, Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong
🕰️Operating Hours: 24 hours
🏖️Environment/Facilities: The airport is well-equipped with comprehensive facilities
Due to travel, I visited Hong Kong International Airport again. The facilities are very complete, and the efficiency is top-notch, reaching international standards. It is one of the best airports. Most passengers in the airport are in a hurry, but if time permits, you can arrive early and take a stroll around the airport. Besides numerous well-known brand stores and restaurants, you can also relax in the airport lounges or visit several observation decks to watch the planes take off and land multiple times. The experience is quite enjoyable.
