Once a British colony, Hong Kong is now a Special Administrative Region of China, but it is a special region that has lost none of its charm. Sure there are many colonial legacies that have been left behind, but Hong Kong is a modern metropolis that refuses to stand still. Hong Kong is like a bustling ball of energy. From the ultramodern central business district to the the swarming late-night shopping districts of Mong Kok, and then even down to the idyllic beaches in the New Territories, Hong Kong really has it all. There is the world’s tallest out-door seated Buddha but there is also the number one skyline in the world. There are some of the busiest shopping and business districts in world, but there is also a 60-hectare public wetland reserve. The main island is home to the sixth tallest office building in the world, but it is also part of a group of 263 islands that make up the region of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong is defined by its contrasts and it really is contra-distinctive in every sense of the complicated word. So check out Synotrip and let us guide you through the contrasts that make up this wonderful city.
