Hong Kong nightlife. Nightlife in Hong Kong - another reason to move to Hong Kong Nightclubs in Hong Kong on the map

Schengen

Hong Kong is one of the most important economic centers of Asia and the most expensive cities in the world. In the 19th century, it was captured by the British, but at the same time it was formally rented for 99 years. After the expiration of the lease, Hong Kong received an autonomous status until the middle of the 21st century, in which the Hong Kongers received the right to manage the region on their own, but at the same time China takes over all defense issues.

Hong Kong is inhabited mainly by Chinese, most of whom are Cantonese. The population is about 7 million people. official languages- English and Cantonese. Cantonese is essentially a dialect of Chinese with similar spellings but different pronunciations.

How to find accommodation in Hong Kong

Housing in Hong Kong is a rather complicated issue due to its cost and demand. There is a fairly large flow, including tourists and people who constantly come here on business. In general, it is worth taking care and booking accommodation in advance. As usual, booking.com will help here. aribnb, agoda or any other aggregator.

We personally stopped at a place checked by my brother, on Causeway Bay, in the very center of the city. This is an ordinary hostel, but most importantly with the Internet. The speed is really not very high, and it is difficult to work, but it is possible. Here is a link to it http://www.179.hk/Cusac_Hong_Kong_Hostel_EN.html

Be sure to ride the famous Hong Kong tram and walk around the city center among the skyscrapers.

Junk trip on Victoria Bay

Or you can use a cheap ferry, nothing too. The view of the city is very beautiful.

Night walk in Hong Kong

Hong Kong is one of the must see cities in the evening.

Night Market Temple Street Market

Souvenirs, snacks, opera singers and fortune tellers - orderly chaos in action.

Lan Kwai Fong

The center of the city's nightlife. There are many clubs and bars, and noisy parties rumble all weekend long.

Nathan Road

It is believed that the best costumes in Hong Kong are sewn on this street. Initially, clothes were sewn in this area for the British living at that time. Today, the cost of rent has evicted many in the gateway. Walking here you feel like in real China.

Tsim Sha Tsui Avenue

Walk on the bright side! Walk along coastline gazing at one of the city's most spectacular skylines against a glowing sky.

Jumbo Kingdom

This is a floating complex with a bunch of restaurants and shops. He is located in bay aberdeen where fishermen historically lived on their junks. They cook Cantonese cuisine here, but the cost is considerable. For some reason, it is very popular among tourists.

Kowloon Peninsula

Located on the opposite coast, opposite Hong Kong Island. It is best to cross over on the Star Ferry, which costs about 3 Hong Kong dollars. Departs from Pier 7 at Central Terminal in Hong Kong and arrives at Tsim Sha Tsui Pier in Kowloon. Kowloon has the most densely populated area in the world.

On the way to the skyscraper with an observation deck, you can go to several parks.

Sky 100 observation deck and high bar

The observation deck is located on the 100th floor of a skyscraper overlooking Hong Kong and Victoria Bay. A small life hack is to go to a high-rise bar located in the same building. Yes, expensive, but for the price of a Sky 100 ticket, you can easily afford a drink with a view, and more to come. It is better to arrive early so that there are seats. We got just closer to sunset, in a beautiful soft light, and there were no seats by the window. But this is for the best, in the end we just looked and left, it turned out for free. What you should take note of with such a plan is the dress code, you need to look decent. Usually you need pants and closed shoes, or at least a shirt))

View of the most densely populated area in the world:

Show Symphony of Lights (The Symphony of Lights)

In the evening, the symphony of lights on Hong Kong Island is perfectly visible from the Avenue of Stars. This action is so attractive that it was entered into the Guinness Book of Records as the largest light show in the world. The show starts at 8 pm and lasts only 15 minutes, but it's worth it.

Clock Tower

A beautiful building from the time of the colonization of Hong Kong by the British.

Avenue of Stars in Hong Kong on the Kowloon Peninsula

This is one of the most popular places in Hong Kong. On the waterfront is a large number of sculptures and monuments to Hollywood stars. And no wonder, because Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan were just from Hong Kong, like a number of other actors and directors.

Cheng Chau Island

If you want to spend a day at the beach center of Hong Kong, you should go to Cheung Chau Island. It's about half an hour away on a high-speed catamaran that departs from the central pier in Hong Kong. It costs about 20 Hong Kong dollars, you can go for 11 on a slow one. Here for an amateur.

The island was originally a fishing island, densely built up, and in the daytime a huge number of tourists come here. There is enough clean water, many beaches and restaurants.

The cemetery is one of the most difficult problems of island life.

Hi friends! Today we will talk about Hong Kong - special administrative region China, which is one of the main financial centers of Asia and the world and is located on more than 260 islands. Currently, up to 2047, Hong Kong has been granted autonomy, in which the Hong Kongers themselves manage their territory, have their own currency, legislation, immigration policy, police, and so on.

In terms of travel, Hong Kong is by no means a budget destination, but it is a major transportation hub in South-East Asia, and there is a high probability of making a transfer there if you are flying further. In the city itself, there are many interesting things to see, and the visa regime allows citizens of Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan to stay in Hong Kong for up to 14 days without a visa in case of transit or tourism purposes. Especially for this case, if you have planned to spend a couple of days in Hong Kong, we have compiled a selection of 10 places to visit, based on our own travel experience.

Victoria Peak

Victoria Peak, or "The Peak" for short, as many Hong Kongers call it, is the highest point on Hong Kong Island. Its height is 554 meters above sea level. From there, a gorgeous and breathtaking view of downtown Hong Kong with its many skyscrapers, Victoria Harbor and Kowloon in the distance opens up.

The easiest and most economical way is to walk to the top, but the Peak Tram funicular is very popular among tourists and starts near the Central metro station. It looks like a tram and for 28HK$ one way or 40HK$ round trip it will save you time and energy. At the top there are two viewing platforms, one is a little lower and free, and the second is a little higher and paid. The paid site is called Sky Terrace 428 (altitude) and costs 40HK$. If you have reached Victoria Peak, we recommend that you spend this money. Although this is one of the most touristy places in all of Hong Kong, however, the view that opens from there will make you forget about the crowds of people around. It is stunning both during the day and at night, and if you want to see both at the same time, come there by 5 pm - then you can catch both the light and dark hours of the day. And yes, as you probably already guessed, the observation deck is not on the very high point Victoria Peak, but this should not disappoint you in the least. :)

Lion Mountain (Lion Rock)

Surprisingly, this place is not in most guidebooks and sightseeing reviews of Hong Kong, although it certainly deserves special attention. This is Lion Rock or "Lion Mountain" - perhaps the most adequate translation into Russian of the many possible. However, we will call it in the original - Lion Rock, because it is by the original name that you can find it in Hong Kong. :)

Lion Rock is a 495-meter high mountain located in the Lion Rock Country Park in Kowloon, so named because its shape visually resembles a lion's head. Lion Rock can be considered an alternative to Victoria Peak - it offers a gorgeous view of the city, but from the other side. First of all, you will see Kowloon and only in the distance will you see Hong Kong Island.

Unlike Victoria Peak, Lion Rock is much less touristy, mostly locals and only occasionally people of European appearance. And there are no funiculars, it's a completely walking route, taking 3 to 4 hours each way, depending on your pace. There are quite steep slopes along the way, as well as quite a few steps, so climbing will require basic physical fitness. It is worth dressing comfortably and preferably in closed clothes - during the route, even at a temperature of 20 degrees, you can decently burn in the sun. We visited Lion Rock on March 3, 2016. We plan to write a separate article about how to get there and how not to get lost in the park, stay tuned for our updates. Well, what will you be rewarded with when you get to the very top, look at the photo. :)

Big Buddha Statue

Except for Kowloon, which is essentially a peninsula, Lantau is the largest of all the islands in Hong Kong. It is from here that your acquaintance will begin if you get to Hong Kong by plane, because this is where the international airport is located. In addition to the airport, Lantau has Disneyland, as well as another famous attraction - a statue big buddha. This statue, 34 meters high, is one of the 10 most tall statues Buddha in the world and is located in the small village of Ngong Ping, next to Po Lin Monastery. To see the sitting Buddha up close, you have to go a long way with 268 steps. However, it is worth it, in addition to the statue itself, it offers a beautiful view of the monastery and the mountains located around.

There are two main ways to get to Ngong Ping - by bus number 23 from the Tung Chung metro station (the first after the airport), or from there, but by funicular, which travels 6 kilometers along cable car and shows passengers the beauty of Lantau Island and the South China Sea. Pleasure is not the cheapest - for a regular booth you will be asked for $130HK one way or $185HK for a round-trip ticket. For greater beauty and fullness of sensations, there are cabins with a transparent bottom (Crystal Cabin), they cost even more - 180HK$ one way or 255HK$ round trip.

Avenue of Stars

Hong Kong has its own Avenue of Stars, created based on Hollywood, and this is no accident - for a long time Hong Kong was the third largest film industry in the world (after the USA and India). On the alley you can find sculptures, as well as handprints and names of famous Asian actors and directors, now there are already more than a hundred of them. Let's be honest, if you are not a connoisseur of Asian cinema, then most likely you will know the names of only two people - these are Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee. The monument to the latter is the most prominent place along the entire alley, there is always a large number of people who want to be photographed in a similar pose. :)

But the avenue of stars is not only remarkable for movie stars. It is located on the waterfront, from where you can admire the beauty of Victoria Harbor with the skyscrapers of Hong Kong Island on the opposite side. So, even if you are not interested in Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee, this is a great place for a walk and for a series of cute shots in your archive.

Unfortunately, at the end of 2015, the Avenue of Stars was closed for reconstruction, which should last as long as 3 years. Judging by the length of the work, it must be redone very thoroughly.

double-decker trams

From west to east and in the opposite direction, very colorful narrow double-decker trams run along Hong Kong Island, which you can’t help but pay attention to if they drive along the street. The unusual appearance of the trams made them a separate landmark of Hong Kong, without which it is already difficult to imagine this city. Such trams came to Hong Kong from England, whose colony it was for a long time. In Hong Kong, they have firmly taken root, but in England itself they are almost gone, as well as in the rest of the world, so, in fact (with a couple of small exceptions), Hong Kong is the only place in the world where you can admire such unusual transport. And not only admire it, you can and should ride it. The fare is only 2.3HK$, you can pay either in cash (coins) or with a local Octopus travel card. Such a low cost makes a trip on a Hong Kong tram the most inexpensive sightseeing tour of the city. And yes, they are only on Hong Kong Island, in Kowloon you will not find them anymore. :)

The subway is not the only way to get from the Kowloon Peninsula to Hong Kong Island, there is another one - the Star Ferry. These white-and-green boats have been running along their route for more than 90 years and, like the double-decker trams, have already become one of the symbols of the city. The trip takes no more than 10 minutes, but it passes through Victoria Harbor, sailing along which you can admire the beauties of the cityscapes of Hong Kong on one side and Kowloon on the other. The cost of a trip on weekdays is 2.5HK$, and on weekends it is slightly more expensive, 3.4HK$. It is very likely that you will be even more impressed by a ferry ride at night, when all the skyscrapers are illuminated by a scattering of multi-colored lights and shine brightly in the dark. The spectacle is something else!

Hong Kong Park is a picturesque green oasis in the middle of the stone jungle and skyscrapers of Hong Kong Island. One can draw certain analogies with New York's Central Park, although it is, of course, much larger. Nevertheless, if you are tired of the abundance of glass, iron and concrete while walking around the city, feel free to dive there and admire the unusual picture - tropical greenery and trees against the backdrop of the tops of skyscrapers. Entrance to the park is free, it is very clean and cozy, there are many benches and places to rest scattered throughout the territory, so it is perfect for taking a breath after long walks. You can “stick” to fountains, waterfalls, lily ponds and fish and turtles swimming there, look into the aviary with more than 80 species of birds, visit the tea museum or have lunch at a restaurant. The nearest metro stations from which you can easily walk to the park are Central or Admiralty.

Another picturesque park among the bustle of a large metropolis is Kowloon Park. It is located, as you can guess from the name, in Kowloon, next to the Tsim Sha Tsui metro station. The park is notable for its bird lake (Bird Lake), where in addition to the usual ducks, swans and dives, you can take a look at pink flamingos! In addition, there is a labyrinth garden, a fountain, an aviary with exotic birds, a Chinese garden, sculptures contemporary art, observation deck and much more.

Kowloon Park can also be called the sports center of the city - there is a large 50-meter indoor swimming pool, two more training pools of 25 meters each and a 21-meter diving pool. And next to it is a sports complex with volleyball, basketball, handball and other playgrounds. The Kowloon Park's sports facilities receive over 2,000 visitors daily. If the entrance to the park itself is free, then you will have to pay for the services of the sports center. But in general, like Hong Kong Park, Kowloon Park is a great place for a leisurely walk among beautiful nature and relaxation from the hustle and bustle of the city - both for locals and tourists.

Wong Tai Sin is a large elegant temple that combines three religions - Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism. In many ways, this is why it is the most visited temple complex in Hong Kong. It is located on the Kowloon Peninsula, next to the subway station of the same name. You will certainly see it if you decide to go trekking to Lion Rock, which we wrote about above, because by the beginning you need to come to the same metro station - Wong Tai Sin.

The temple is made in the traditional Chinese style - decorated with fine multi-colored carvings, impressive columns, a roof with upturned corners, painted with hieroglyphs. It looks very beautiful, elegant and colorful, especially for guests from Europe who rarely come across this kind of architecture. Wong Tai Sin Temple is open daily from 7:00 am to 5:30 pm. Admission is free, but donations are welcome. On the territory of the temple there is a beautiful garden, and the temple itself is considered an excellent place for making wishes that tend to come true. :)

Night Market (Temple Street Night Market)

Housing in Hong Kong

We recommend that you settle in the south of the Kowloon Peninsula - from there it is easy to get by bus to the airport, by Star Ferry - to Hong Kong Island, and we consider living there more attractive due to the more colorful Chinese Kowloon than the business and overly modern Hong Kong. Look for accommodation in Booking.com.

We stayed at a guesthouse called Inn Sight- a pretty and moderately priced place by Hong Kong standards. Recommended!

Night life in Hong Kong – another reason to move to Hong Kong

As night falls, life continues to boil, the bars never close, and people are as active as they are hard at work. The most popular and interesting places are located in the very center of the city, as in this way the clubs become popular and recognizable, and they are easy to get to.

Hong Kong ranks first in the number of nightlife and clubs among all major cities in China. Due to the highly developed culture and the modern rhythm of life, as well as its links with other major countries, Hong Kong can rightfully be called an ultra-modern city.

Despite the large number of different bars and clubs, entertainment prices are very high. Although they are not as high as in London or New York, Hong Kong is still the most expensive city in China. Most nightclubs have a British or Irish club style with great food and live music.

Nightclubs in Hong Kong are considered among the best in all of Asia - they will appeal to even the most sophisticated and demanding customers. Each club has its own distinctive features.

Cultural life in Hong Kong has long been divided: there are people who lead a traditional way of life, and there is also a new, ultra-modern world. Tourists often notice how some locals drink, dance and sing in nightclubs, while others honor morality and strict traditions nearby.

Temple Street in the Yau Ma Tei area is closed from 6 pm. Traffic stops here and hundreds of vendors set up their portable tents, filling them with clothes and watches from "famous designers and brands" that sell for pennies. Tattoo parlors and hairdressers offer incredible discounts.

Happy Valley Racecourse is also popular among locals and expats. Beautiful horses, skilled riders, crowds of people create a fun and exciting atmosphere in a world-class place. Horse racing is taken seriously in Hong Kong and contributes quite well to the city's economy. This sport was introduced by the British who came to Hong Kong in 1841, and since then it has been one of the most favorite pastimes for local residents, which is not surprising, given the Chinese love for gambling.

Kee

This club was organized by a couple from Australia in 2001. Various architects and designers were engaged in interior design, due to which a truly luxurious space was created that resembles an interior royal castle or a palace. The entire space is divided into different rooms (salon). A wide staircase made of unique materials leads visitors to the unique interior of the club.

The club has a huge dance floor that can accommodate a large number of people. Basically, incendiary and modern music plays here, under which young people really come off. There is also stylish lighting on the dance floor - powerful laser guns, various spotlights and a fog generator are installed. Thanks to this, on the dance floor you can "dissolve" in the music and fully feel the rhythm.

Confidential and business negotiations are held in the red room of the institution, so it is decorated exclusively in a business style.

Dragon-I

This club is very large. Its distinguishing feature is the interior in a traditional style, quite common among the world's architects and designers.

The second part consists entirely of a terrace, which overlooks the picturesque beauty of Hong Kong at night.

As promised, I post photos of Hong Kong at night. To be honest, I expected more from him. I don’t know why, apparently from all megacities I expect Chicago. In general, of course, like everyone else big cities, Hong Kong lives a completely different life at night, for many this life only begins at night. The Kowloon area has many night markets, night eateries and cafes, although many of them are almost exclusively tourists. I don't like bars-clubs and other establishments, apparently for two reasons - I got out of my own while working as a bartender, and I don't drink alcohol, so I don't see much point in visiting bars. But I love local eateries. Not far from the hostel in the evening, I noticed just an incredible line of locals in some gray place. I have never seen such queues anywhere else (except for the cable car to Lantau). She moved quite quickly, and after 20 minutes I was already ordering something with something, stupidly poking at the pictures, since no one could properly explain to me what is what. After they ordered me, it turned out to be duck and rice and some very tasty sweet sauce. Well, I’ll write about food separately, let’s talk about the night city
Of course, the hallmark of the city is the view of the bay from Victoria Peak. There is a special viewing room (entry 35 GK bucks). I've been here day and night. Here is the view from there at night.

Below there are more views from this place.
But this is a view in the opposite direction - from Kowloon to Hong Kong Island. By the way, the city is decorated for Christmas, so the photos are not so frequent (although this angle is perhaps the most popular)

4. Local clock tower

5. From the side of the Kowloon waterfront, every day at 8 o'clock you can watch the largest sound and light show in the world for free, it is even listed in the book of records. It represents this: almost all skyscrapers have a certain backlight, which can change the light and configuration. All this is done clearly to the music.
