Destination Profile
Draped over a series of islands that fragment into the South China Sea, Hong Kong is a buzzing and boisterous metropolis that's sure to capture the imagination. On one side, it's got gritty Kowloon, awash with wet markets, mystical fortune tellers, and night bazaars. On the other, it's a sleek and chic playground for the rich and famous, with neon-lit skyscrapers towering over the glitzy walks of Victoria Harbour. Cheap flights to Hong Kong can be your ticket to an urban hodgepodge of dim sum kitchens, characterful junk boats, and high-perched lookouts. And that's not even mentioning the hidden corners of the city, from the traditional fishing villages of Lamma to the up-and-down hiking paths of the Dragon's Back.
The iconic photo stop of Hong Kong is reached by an old funicular tram. At the top, it has panoramas that take in the soaring skyscrapers and Victoria Harbour.
Escape the rush of Central by catching a ferry to little Lamma. Here, yellow-sand beaches spill into the ocean and folksy fishing taverns abound.
Also known as the Big Buddha, this 34-meter-high statue has kept watch over the incense-scented Po Lin Monastery and forest-clad Lantau Island since 1993.
