Cheng Dingyi, Executive Director of the Hong Kong Tourism Board, said: "In winter, Hong Kong is full of Christmas and New Year celebrations. The glittering and moving large-scale decorations can be seen everywhere, attracting tourists to come to Hong Kong to experience them in person. Among them, the Hong Kong Tourism Board's "Hong Kong Colorful Winter Tour" is one of the most popular choices for celebrations. This year, we have expanded the scale, with the tallest outdoor giant Christmas tree in Hong Kong with Victoria Harbour views, plus 8 themed Christmas huts in the quirky Christmas Village during Christmas. Every place has become a unique check-in hotspot, and we have provided everyone with a series of unique programs to show global tourists how lively Hong Kong is in celebrating Christmas and New Year." Two major winter gifts boost the city's festive atmosphere 1. The tallest outdoor Christmas tree in Hong Kong stands on the Victoria Harbour waterfront and is a must-see for those who want to check in The protagonist of the "Hong Kong Colorful Winter Tour", the Coastal European Christmas Town will be unveiled at the Art Park in the West Kowloon Cultural District starting tomorrow. The giant Christmas tree is over 20 meters high, equivalent to more than 6 stories high. It is the tallest outdoor Christmas tree in the city. With live music and special flashing light effects, the starry sky and the beautiful scenery of Victoria Harbour complement each other. It is unique both during the day and at night, and it will definitely attract everyone's attention. It is the first choice for checking in! The town also has exquisitely decorated Christmas trees, Christmas reindeer and classical lamp posts, which make it feel dreamy at night. Enter the fun Christmas village and experience the Christmas journey This year, the Hong Kong Tourism Board will give everyone a special surprise during the Christmas period from December 23 to 27, and will add a fun Christmas Village on the other side of the Art Park. Families, couples and tourists visiting the park can enjoy 8 themed Christmas huts, including the snow-covered ice and snow kingdom, the dreamy candy house, and the colorful Christmas children's house, and experience a series of fantasy Christmas stories. It has become a must-have choice for citizens to gather together to celebrate Christmas. The West Kowloon Cultural District Authority is the venue partner of this year’s “Hong Kong Winter Festival”. To experience the warmth and romance of the holiday, the best thing is to prepare unique gifts for your loved ones yourself. During the Christmas period, the HKTB has prepared wonderful performances and a series of handicraft workshops, allowing everyone to make unique Christmas gifts by hand.
