Scenic Skyscrapers at The Peak Hong Kong

Hong Kong is famous for towering skyscrapers. You probably know that Hong Kong means “fragrant harbour” in Chinese. Every time you utter the word “Kowloon” you are saying “nine dragons”. Folklore tells us that a young emperor noticed the area’s eight hills, and named the land “eight dragons”. Later, a servant reminded the emperor he too is a dragon. This made nine. “Kow” sounds like “gau” or nine in Cantonese, and Loon is like “lung” or dragon. Is Hong Kong home? Or are you visiting for the first time? Whatever your reason for coming to the metropolis that is home to almost 7.5 million people, we’re sure you’ll learn something from our list of 25 fun facts! The peak Galleria is one of the tourist spot in HK. It offers a panoramic view of the Victoria harbour and the towering skyscrapers the city has to offer. Peak Tram is your best bet to get to the top if you are not afraid of heights. otherwise it is also accessible through a cab, fare ranging from US$10 to $20 depending on which side of the island you are traveling from. There will be an entrance fee for the viewing deck on the rooftop. Shopping malls and restaurants overlooking the scenic view. #urbanexplorer #momentsmission #travelexperience #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration
