The first place on every visitor's must do list is the Victoria Peak or simply The Peak. It features the city's oldest and most reliable mode of public transport, The Peak Tram , in operation since 1888. A scenic ride up from the city center to The Peak takes only 7 minutes.
At the summit, visitors arrive at The Peak Tower , the city's most unusual building and icon. The unique "wok" shaped tower sits at an elevation of 396 meters. Viewing terraces located on different levels of the tower offer spectacular views of the Hong Kong, New Territories, and Kowloon skylines, including Victoria Harbor.
Inside The Peak Tower, visitors will find over 112,000 square feet of lively shopping, great restaurants and some of Hong Kong's best entertainment attractions, including Ripley's Believe It or Not , and Madame Tussauds - London's famous wax museum. Ripley's Believe It or Not has eleven themed galleries with over 450 exhibits from around the world. Madame Tussaud's museum has seven exhibition halls such as Celebrity Party & the Music Legends. |
