3-Hour City Walk in Central Hong Kong, 6 Attractions, So Happy!

🇭🇰 The city of Hong Kong is like a Rubik's Cube, always full of temptation. We had a 6-hour layover in Hong Kong, and after deducting the time needed to enter and exit the airport and board the plane, we had 3 hours to play, so we rushed out! ⛳ Sure enough, there was a long line at the airport, but fortunately, the Airport Express train was fast, and we arrived at Hong Kong Station in about half an hour. As soon as we got out of the station, we were greeted by skyscrapers, and our city walk began. 1⃣️ International Finance Centre: You can see it as soon as you exit the subway station. It is a famous landmark of Hong Kong as a world-class financial center. There are two bull sculptures in front of the building, symbolizing a bull market, and it is a must-see spot. You can also go to the top of the building to see a panoramic view of Hong Kong. 2️⃣ Central Harbourfront: There is a pedestrian bridge leading here from the subway exit, where you can see the Avenue of Stars and Victoria Harbour on the opposite side. There is also a spot to see the giant rubber duck nearby. 3⃣️ Hong Kong Observation Wheel: Located on the Central Harbourfront, it is 60 meters high (about 20 stories high) and is open from 10:00 to 23:00. Tickets are HKD 20 per person, which is very affordable. 4⃣️ Central Pier: An important transportation hub in Hong Kong, it has 10 piers that provide ferry services to many outlying islands in Hong Kong and across Victoria Harbour. Each pier leads to a different outlying island. Many Hong Kong movies have been filmed here, and it is a great place to take photos. 5⃣️ Hong Kong Maritime Museum: Located at Central Pier 8, it mainly displays maritime history stories about Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta region, as well as the changes from fishing villages to the Maritime Silk Road, from wooden sailing ships to today's large container ships, and more. 6⃣️ Central–Mid-Levels Escalator: The same one from the movie "Chungking Express," where Tony Leung, who plays a police officer, takes the escalator to work, and the heroine Faye Wong watches him from her apartment window, creating a classic scene. There is more to it than that. In the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong, there are many unique neighborhoods, and nearby are the Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens, Chater Garden, Ladder Street, Hollywood Road, Statue Square, Victoria Peak, Central Pier, Bank of China Tower, Jardine House, and Hong Kong Park, all of which are great places to visit.
