Hong Kong by Night

Hong Kong is a pretty impressive city at anytime of the day.

By night the city takes on a spectacular look which begins with the most amazing sunset over Hong Kong Island. For a great view of the setting sun head for Aqua, located on the 29th floor of the 1 Peking Road development. This really cool bar has huge windows giving a great view over the city and makes the most perfect cocktails to sip as you watch the sun going down.

If you can tear yourself away from the delights of Aqua head on down to the Kowloon Pier Public Number 3 and join a cruise of Victoria Harbour. Operated by Wing On Travel it departs Kowloon at 7.15 and heads across to Hong Kong Island for further passengers. From here you then get a 45 minute cruise around the harbour to enjoy the spectacular display of lights on the buildings, some of which are specially decorated for the approaching new year celebrations. The tour includes a free drink at the bar on the upper deck which was most welcome and a nice surprise.
