i'm going to hongkong for 3 days, whats the best place to shop, and what are the places i shouldnt miss?

Answer 1

I have been to most of place as below and had a great time ,for your reference:



1
Victoria Peak is the best place from which to admire the lights of this Oriental Pearl. Peak Tower with its famous wok-like architecture stands at the exit of Peak Tram. The amazing Ripley's Believe It or Not! Odditorium, the exciting Peak Explorer Motion Simulator, and relaxing terraces and restaurants are among the favorite stops at this entertainment center. Another favorite attraction is the Madame Tussaud Wax Museum with figures of celebrities including local movie star Jackie Chan.

2.Ocean Park is among the top theme parks and aquariums in Southeast Asia, as well as the best marine education center, which makes it a must for families with children.

3.Aberdeen provides a glimpse of the essence of Hong Kong with hundreds of lighted trawlers on which fishermen and their families live. The Jumbo Floating Restaurant offers superb fresh seafood.

4.Stanley Market will satisfy epicureans with its many stands, shops, original restaurants, outdoor cafes, and even a performance stage.

5.The HK Convention and Exhibition Center and Golden Bauhinia Square in Wan Chai, which were established in 1997 to commemorate the Return of Hong Kong to Her Motherland, are also definitely worth a visit. From this vantage point, Victoria Bay at night presents a glittering spectacle that will delight the eye of even the most seasoned traveler.

6.
Kowloon Peninsula Tour

Kowloon Peninsula, which links Hong Kong to the mainland, offers yet another view of this exciting part of China. Allow at least one full day to experience its sparkling delights, which include Tsim Sha Tsui , Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok.

7.
Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple , patterned after an ancient Chinese palace and rich in Chinese culture, is the most famous temple in Hong Kong. Fortunetellers are active there.

8.
The Star Ferry can be both inexpensive and romantic. For shutterbugs, a ride on the ferry provides the optimum angle from which to snap fantastic views of Victoria Harbor.

9.
Open-air markets lure every tourist, and no one leaves empty-handed. There is something for every taste, from the fashionable bargains at Ladies' Market in Mong Kok to the electronic gadgets and souvenirs in Yau Ma Tei's Temple Street Night Market.

10
Kowloon Park and the Hong Kong Space Museum are also popular with tourists.

The New Territories and Outlying Islands Tour

The New Territories and Lantau Island , Cheung Chau Island , and Lamma Island were once fairly rural, undeveloped parts of Hong Kong., and there are still many areas where visitors can see villages that have remained unchanged for centuries. Today, however, Shatin and Tuen Mun in the New Territories and Tung Chung on Lantau Island are modern cities. Lantau Island has received attention in recent years as the home of the international airport, Tung Chung New Town and the new Hong Kong Disneyland , as well as the traditional Po Lin Monastery and Big Buddha. Hong Kong Tsing Ma Bridge connects Ma Wan and Tsing Yi. The world's longest suspension bridge carrying both motor and rail traffic, it is a world-class architectural achievement created to connect the new airport with the rest of Hong Kong



and the new opened Hong Kong Disneyland,
Grand Opening: September 12, 2005
Attraction type: Disney; Amusement/theme park

Answer 2

I could reccomend seeing a exhibit on/off Broadway. Go to Chinatown when you like type and knock-off fashion designer handbags,sneakers,cologne, and so on... You NEED to uncover a well bagel position and a gap-within the wall position for a slice of NY pizza. The smaller and dirtier watching, the greater. MoMA was once stated above and is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. My all-time favourite museum! You need to trip the subway once or more, simply say you had the revel in. Coney Island is a laugh, however it's crowded and soiled. Yes, Ground Zero is eye-commencing, however you can not get at any place practically it and also you can not fairly take portraits when you consider that there may be fences up all over the place. The statue of Liberty is pleasant however you'll be in line for a couple of hours when you plan on going to the highest, equal with the Empire States Building. Personally, I had been to NY many a time because of household residing there, and I do not trouble with the traveler-y stuff... NY is first-rate simply strolling round a persons-looking, watching in retailer home windows and consuming a Bagel & Schmear in a avenue-aspect restaraunt... however that is me! Have a BLAST! It's no longer difficult to in this kind of pleasant town! A fairly well journal to get earlier than you cross is known as "Time Out New York City" it has the entire suggests, avenue gala's and different enjoyment that is taking place that month. It's the first-rate!

Answer 3

3 days in Hong Kong is a whirlwind tour at best. I always tell people to skip the parks like Disney or Ocean Park for when they have more time. You can buy the mall stuff in any other malls around the world. So with that said. Here is a list of "must do" unique to Hong Kong and links for your own research and considerations.
1. Ride tram to Victoria Peak to look down at the harbor, tour and shop in the area and more.
2. Ride the Nong Ping Skyrail (NP 360) to see the outlying areas and the big island "Lantau Island". Tons of activites to chose from along the way. Try and take the bus in gettng there for a bonus scenic ride.
3. Ride the Star ferry across the harbor at night to see the lights and laser show from the signature buildings on both sides of the harbor.
4. Do your shopping at Tong Choi Street "Ladies market" (don't let the name fool you, it's NOT just for ladies) for day, and Temple street for night. Do a walking tour of Tsim Tsa Tsui area if you got the stamina.
5. Lan Kwai Fong, a sub-compact but complete package for dining, music, drinks and club. near the Central district.
6. Try as much authentic food as possible. The dim sum and HK style cafe are unlike any other in the world. (Don't worry, tales of dogs and babies are highly exaggerated in HK)
7. Ride on as many public transportation as you can find.
There are many, from train to tram, bus to vans, triple decked ferries to jet foils, helicopters to miniplanes.

Shopping can be even cheaper if you have time to go 1 1/ 2 hours north into Shenzhen. And gambling, male sin city Macau is only 45 minutes west by boat across the Pearl river delta.

Answer 4

The Victoria Peak , Better go in the evening time when the city lights up , Ride the tram!

The Great Buddha in Lantau Island , Visit Tai Oi (A fishing village) on the way.

Go shopping in Causeway Bay , Tsim Sha Tsui , Mong Kok

Dinning - Try Yum Cha in the morning for breakfast , Cha-chang-dang for lunch , Chinese hot-pot for dinner , Clubbing in Lan Kwan Fong * Try Club HeiHei , Wan Chai or Hollywood Road *Try Dragon-i

Answer 5

I would strongly suggest that you visit Mongkok, you can
get there by MTR (METRO RAIL) get off and walk for a
few minutes to Women's market, you can't miss it. (east
of the station). The other place is Causeway Bay, get off
at this station and the whole area is a shopping paradise.
Another place is Tsim Sha Tsui for cameras and electrics.
Another suggestion is to get a 3 day tourist ticket at the
MTR station and you can travel as many times as you
like without bothering to get coins etc. and it is especially
promoted for tourists. So have a good trip, beware of
pickpockets and Merry X'mas.

Answer 6

Depends on what you want to buy. Langham Place is one of the newest malls and is very popular. It is also within walking distance to the open air Ladies market- lots of women's clothes, accessories,...

Causeway bay has a high concentration of shops as well.

Answer 7

you should go to causeway bay.
