To me, the name “Hong Kong” sounds familiar as I grew up watching Hong Kong movies and dramas. Almost my whole life has been impacted by Hong Kong artistes and their culture. Basically, everyone knows who people like Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Tony Leung and Kelly Chen are. Having a chance to visit Hong Kong is one of my best experiences ever.
There are a few places where every visitors must go while discovering Hong Kong, especially first time visitors. Why? Simply because these are the basic spots where you get to understand Hong Kong more!
1) Victoria Peak
A place where you can embrace the whole view of Hong Kong! Take a tram up the hill and upon reaching, you’ll see the stunning views of Hong Kong city skyline. The Madame Tussauds Wax Museum is also located on the Peak. You will find your favourite singers, actors, politicians, royal families and many more here (in wax!)

2) Aberdeen Fishing Village
You would discover another kind of experience here in the fishing village. Take a boat ride around and you’ll know what I mean. It will bring you around the village. Do expect a lot of boats, parked in the middle of the sea. These are the home of fishermen who go out the sea to catch fish. They live in the boats which are facilitated like a home. Some are even installed with air-conditioners!

3) Repulse BayYet, another landmark of Hong Kong. Never leave Hong Kong without dropping by this tourists’ attraction. There’s a temple here where you may want to offer your prayers here. Also, you will see a lot of bungalows and high-end condominium built by the seaside and along the hillside. It is said that the rich and famous live here. Could it the good feng-shui here?
4) Victoria Harbour
This is the place where we always see in Hong Kong dramas. You may want to take a ferry ride at the Star Ferry jetty and witness the beautiful scenery of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island. Around 8pm daily, do not miss the Symphony of Lights which is recognized as the World’s Largest Permanent Light and Sound Show. Within walking distance, you will reach Avenue of Stars where hand prints of famous people are placed on this stretch of walkway. You can also find our very own Dato’ Michelle Yeoh’s here!
