Hong Kong|Victoria Peak + Victoria Harbor City Walk

Victoria Peak, located on Hong Kong Island, is one of the highest peaks in Hong Kong, with an elevation of 552 meters. From the peak, you can enjoy panoramic views of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the surrounding islands. On clear days, the stunning scenery of Victoria Harbor is visible, and at night, the breathtaking city lights are a must-see. As a local, I’ve visited Victoria Peak many times, but whenever friends or family come to Hong Kong, I still take them to this iconic landmark. For those interested in learning more about Hong Kong’s culture and history, you can visit Madame Tussauds inside the Peak Tower, which features wax figures of famous personalities from around the world. The traditional way to reach Victoria Peak is by taking the Peak Tram, one of Hong Kong’s oldest modes of transportation. The tram slowly ascends the steep slopes, offering scenic views along the way. (Although the tram has been upgraded, the views remain unchanged.) 🌟🌟🌟 One minor downside is the boarding process. While waiting in line, some people may rush forward to secure window seats, so be mindful of your safety to avoid accidents. If you enjoy nature, you can also hike up to Victoria Peak. Strolling along Lugard Road and Harlech Road’s circular trails allows you to appreciate Hong Kong’s scenery from various angles. If you don’t have time to stay at the peak until nightfall to see the city lights, you can head down to Victoria Harbor for a close-up view of the equally spectacular nightscape. 🌟🌟🌟 The evening at the peak can be windy, and indoor air conditioning might be chilly, so it’s advisable to bring a light jacket for warmth. 📍Address: Victoria Peak, Hong Kong Island 🕰️Opening Hours: Observation Deck: 07:00–22:00 Peak Tram: 07:00–22:00 (operates every 15–20 minutes) Sky Terrace 428 at Peak Tower: Weekdays: 10:00–21:00 Weekends and Holidays: 08:00–21:00 🌟🌟🌟 Transportation to the Peak Tram: MTR🚇 "Admiralty Station" Exit C1 MTR🚇 "Central Station" Exit J or K Walking around Hong Kong Island, you’ll find skyscrapers everywhere, perfect for capturing the city’s unique architecture. 🌃 If you haven’t tried the iconic Ding Ding Tram, it’s an affordable and convenient way to experience Hong Kong’s unique transportation system. It also stops near the Peak Tram station. 🚃 🌟🌟🌟 Besides the Peak Tram, buses are another option to reach Victoria Peak. 🚌: New Bus Route 15 HK$13 (approx. 35 minutes) 🚐: Minibus Route 1 HK$11.8 (approx. 25 minutes) 🚕: Taxi HK$60–$70 (approx. 20 minutes)
