My last set of photos from Hong Kong feature the stunning views from the famous Victoria Peak, more commonly known locally as simply The Peak.
-
- From Kowloon where I was staying, the Star Ferry is an inexpensive and scenic way to cross the harbour.
-
- The trip to the Peak begins with a tram ride up the hill.
-
- I actually went to the Peak a couple times. When going by bus, you get a glimpse at hundreds of massive residences. The scale of population density in such a small area is staggering.
-
- From the top, the views are stunning in all directions.
-
- To the south, you can see more residences and islands.
-
- This is perhaps my most stunning photo from Hong Kong. This is the skyline of Asia’s World City, during the precious few minutes during sunset when things take on a different colour everywhere.
-
- At night, the skyline is equally stunning, as all buildings light up with many colours.
-
- Zooming in further, you can see Kowloon and Tsim Sha Tsui in more detail. The International Finance Centre building stands prominently to the left.
-
- This is my last photo from Hong Kong, taken as I walked by the harbour in Tsim Sha Tsui one last time hours before flying out. This boat is flying the flag of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, while a passenger waves to me.
Goodbye for now, Hong Kong!
Fantastic
