Overview of your Hong Kong tour

Hong Kong Island is where Modern HK became- it is the center for both Political and military power, and Financial Might. This relatively short walking tour will be perfect if you are short on time and still want to have a real overview of the essence of how HK transformed into one of major cities of the world. Often compared to Manhattan due to its skyscraper skyline, at first glance Hong Kong island is quite modern, but it is has Chinese characteristics. Modern cafes are brimmed with customers, who are the same executives who would walk into a century old temple to make a prayer. Very few places if any combine this fusion of East meets West like Hong Kong. We will walk around 2 major districts and experience and see both traditional Chinese culture and history sitting side by side with colonial western influences. Come with me on this discovery tour of Hong Kong island and be amazed by its past and yet dazzled by its present!
