When you visit Hong Kong you discover a diverse modern metropolis steeped in unique blends of Eastern and Western traditions.More than 10 years after its handover from Britain to China, this entrepreneurial, irrepressible and singular trading city is punching well above its size and weight, with a self-confidence it never had under its former masters. Hong Kong has never been busier. Almost 7 million people call a territory of 1,100 sq km home, squeezing onto only 10% of the available land space.
Hong Kong means different things to different people. For some it is the view from the Peak by day or Hong Kong Island's skyline by night, as the skyscrapers flush their neon rainbows. Dining can be about a lingering morning of tea and bite-sized dim sum or a multi-dish Chinese banquet. Hikers, birders and climbers say nothing beats the Hong Kong countryside for its beauty, facilities and accessibility.
It is a city of teeming streets and empty wilderness, dazzling modernity and traditional observances, brash, buccaneering and Westernised, yet conservatively minded and Chinese to its core. Hong Kong surprises, delights and confounds with its cheerful contradictions and energetic inconsistency.
