I had the fortune to visit Hongkong few months ago for 10 days. I had read and heard many a things about Hongkong and wanted to try out the best of the place when I was there. Hongkong is visual treat for photographers. The place is the most sought out business hubs and also a buzzing tourist destination. In order to promote all these the government provides a visa for 14 days on arrival. Few places that I visited during my stay:
Stanley Market & Murray House
Repulse Bay
Temple Street Night Market
The Symphony of Lights at Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront in Kowloon and Golden Bauhinia Square in Wan Chai.
Victoria Peak
Victoria Harbour
Avenue of Stars
One of the thing that impressed me the most was the Symphony of Lights. The show happens all day for about 10 mins. It is said to be the world's largest permanent light and sound show. Each show is based on 5 themes talking about the heritage of Hongkong and many buildings from each island take part in this.
Few of the places are best visited at night. The Temple Street Night Market at Kowloon only opens after 6PM. The place is filled with vendors selling everything from souvenirs to electronics. The place has few good places to eat where you can try authentic chines seafood.
