This Summer, We've Planned To Visit Hong Kong Again (we did 2 years ago, we didn't do much back then, no real plans whatsoever), Just Wanted Some Pointers On Where We Should Go..
We'll Be There For About A Week, So We'd Like Some Things That Will Make It All Worth It..
Not To Mention Having It As Cheap As Possible!
The Only Thing We Know We'll Be Doing There Is Hong Kong Disneyland, granted, We Already Know That Won't Be As Good As Our Tokyo Disneyland Visit..
Thanks!

I answered something similar earlier:
June is a good time for shopping cause the sales are high in June, July and August (particularly August). -You picked the right time! You can shop there are a lot of cheap things, u can even get designer goods for a cheaper price than most of the other countries. You should visit The Peak, it's at a great view from the top. To reach there, you should take the peak tram (its been in operation since 1888!). There is also Hollywood Road, The Big Buddha, Wisdom Path, The flower market, Mid Levels Escalator (the worlds longest covered escalator). You could go to Ocean Park, citizens believe that it is better than Disney Land (esspecially if you have already been to another DisneyLand). For shopping you can go to "Fa Yuen Gai" (Fa Yuen Street) It is a cheap buy like night market but you can go during the day.everything in Fa Yuen Gai - baby/toddler clothes, clothings for yourself (no fitting so a devised strategy to make sure what you buy can actually fit you - don't trust the labels, that's why they're there), home deco, kitchen utensils, fruits, bags and presents not to mention designer clothings (D&G, Dior you name it) . And I bet you've heard of Lady's Street. It's similar to what I Fa Yuen Street. There are many more but it's a lot to mention and I just said the a few of the ones that I've visited. The best official factory outlet was the Esprit outlet in Tsim Sha Tsui

You know. I am from Hong Kong. I can tell u a lot of things. Besides the new Disneyland, there is a theme park called Ocean Park. It is located in Hong Kong island. I am sure if u ask someone in ur hotel, he or she will be able to help u. There are also many restaurants all over the city u can try.
Also there are many attractions like Victoria Harbour, Victoria Peak, Nathan Road, Star Ferry, Wong Tai Sin Temple, Stanley, The Big Buddha, Lam Tsuen Wishing Tree, Tsing Ma Bridge and Po Lin Monastery. u can search these places online to see what u like to see. There are many museums and shopping centers in Causeway Bay, Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok.
Hopfully , these info can help u plan ur trip.

I really wouldn't come to HK to see Disneyland.....Go to Victoria Peak via tram, take in the Night Market, Ladies Market, Bird Market, go out to Stanley, take the Star Ferry Tour, go explore the New Terrortories, Do a day trip to Shenzhen for shopping. Hong Kong is an amazing city with 1000's of things to do.

There's so much to do that you are wise to plan in advance.
When you arrive at the airport purchase an Octopus card for travel on most public transport. We got some on our trip at Easter and found it excellent value for money.
My personal favourite place is Victoria Peak, both during the day and at night. Bad weather does spoil the view unfortunately so you have to try to choose your time.
We also enjoyed a visit to the Big Buddha but it does take the best part of a day and won't suit everyone.
Have a great trip.

Hong Kong Wetland Park in Tin Shui Wai (a new icon), Tai O (fishing village) in Lantau Inland are two places you can spend a few hours in the countryside of the city. webstie : www.hongkongwetlandpark.com/en/index/asp

Lan Kwan Fong is the night spot you must not miss. There's lots of restaurants and bars and crowd of people especially on Friday and Saturday. The atmosphere becomes higher recently as most of the bars provide TV set broadcasting World Cup live.
