@pxhere

The most recognizable and iconic tourist tours in Hong Kong are those on board a boat. The choice is between a modern ferry or a traditional Chinese junk boat. Both provide the most scenic route through the city. Recommended taking the boat after 8 p.m. when it takes to place an amazing light show, considered to be the world’s largest light show.

Named after the Tin Hau Temple and just next to the south entrance of the neighborhood where the shrine is located, following the north direction, welcome to Temple Street Night Market, where, after the sun goes down, the local atmosphere and the buzzing of the neon lights make this street bazaar typical and bizarre.

On Lantau Island, there is a special place for families: Disneyland Hong Kong, even if some adults found it to be a waste of time. This is the best place to bring your children and enjoy, after days of exploring the city, some relax and fun time. Disneyland Hong Kong is smaller compared to its related, and more famous Disney World Paris and Florida, but still a happy place where spend a happy day.
