Hong Kong

A tiny dot that makes a big impression

Though little more than a dot along the southern coastal tip of the Republic of China, Hong Kong's own unique characteristics make a big impression. And it's not all gleaming glass and steel towers. Only a few blocks away from its teeming main thoroughfares, small roads and alleyways are home to earthy noodle bars and colourful fresh produce markets. Jump aboard a ferry to one of the Outer Islands or catch a train to the New Territories for a rural contrast.
