Hong Kong Holidays

Anyone who has visited Hong Kong will tell you about the ‘feeling’. Exciting, captivating, electric, intense, stunning, beautiful and unique, packed into one snapshot that can be captured at almost every turn. Hong Kong was once an undeveloped, unwanted port in the Japanese Empire – today, it’s a melting pot of traditional Chinese, colonial British and Cantonese influence which combines to create a culture exclusive to this tiny nation.

Whatever your flavour, Hong Kong probably has it. If you’re a night owl, take a stroll through one of Hong Kong’s many night markets, like Fa Yuen Street Market, where your senses will be taken on a wild ride and your palate awakened. Hong Kong was not too long ago dubbed “the food capital of the world” by Time Out Magazine – which isn’t a surprise given its unparalleled culinary diversity, vibrant food culture, and exceptional standards.

Love nature as much as new food experiences? You’ve come to the perfect place. Up to 40% of Hong Kong’s total landmass is covered by 24 national parks, each offering their own unique vantage point over the city. Whether you like to head to the top or admire the view from afar, Hong Kong is as much a feast for the eyes as it is for your taste buds.

The influence of Hong Kong’s colonial British past can be felt across the island. You’ll see buses modelled on English versions, tramways built during British rule, and place names inspired by locations in the United Kingdom. In a post-colonial world, the sprinkles of Britishness in Hong Kong add a touch of charm as opposed to serving as a legacy of the past.

Hong Kong has so much to offer that it might seem overwhelming at first - take a breath, find your feet, and simply enjoy being in one of the world’s great cities. Book with dnata Travel, and we’ll plan the perfect trip to Hong Kong that hits every note.
