Where to go in Hong Kong at night. Night Hong Kong

Hong Kong is one of the most important economic centers in Asia and the most expensive cities in the world. In the 19th century it was captured by the British, but was formally rented for 99 years. After the end of the lease, Hong Kong received an autonomous status until the mid-21st century, in which Hong Kongers received the right to govern the region independently, but China took over all defense issues.

Hong Kong is inhabited mainly by Chinese, most of whom are Cantonese. Population is about 7 million people. The official languages ​​are English and Cantonese. Cantonese is essentially a dialect of Chinese with similar spellings but different pronunciations.

How to find accommodation in Hong Kong

Housing in Hong Kong is a rather complex issue due to its cost and demand. There is quite a large flow here, including tourists and people who constantly come here on business. In general, it is worth taking care and booking accommodation in advance. As usual, booking.com will help here. aribnb, agoda or any other aggregator.

We personally stopped at a place my brother had trusted, on Causeway Bay, in the very center of the city. This is an ordinary hostel, but most importantly with the Internet. The speed is really not very high, and the work is difficult, but it is possible. Here is the link to it http://www.179.hk/Cusac_Hong_Kong_Hostel_EN.html

You should definitely take a ride on the famous Hong Kong tram and walk around the city center among the skyscrapers.






Junk cruise on Victoria Bay

Or you can take a cheap ferry, that's fine too. The view of the city is very beautiful.







Walking around Hong Kong at night

Hong Kong is one of the must-see cities in the evening.





Temple Street Market Night Market

Souvenirs, snacks, opera singers and fortune tellers - orderly chaos in action.


Lan Kwai Fong

The center of the city's nightlife. There are many clubs and bars, and noisy parties rumble all weekend long.




Nathan Road

It is believed that the best suits in Hong Kong are made on this street. Initially, clothes were sewn in this area for the British living at that time. Today, the cost of rent has driven many out into the back alleys. Walking here you feel like you are in real China.

Tsim Sha Tsui Avenue

Take a walk on the bright side! Walk along coastline, taking in one of the city's most spectacular skylines against a glittering sky.






Jumbo Kingdom

This is a floating complex with a bunch of restaurants and shops. It is located in Aberdeen Bay, where fishermen historically lived on their junks. They serve Cantonese cuisine, but the cost is considerable. For some reason it is very popular among tourists.








Kowloon Peninsula

Located on the opposite shore, opposite Hong Kong Island. The best way to cross is the Star Ferry, which costs about HK$3. Departs from Pier 7 at Hong Kong Central Terminal and arrives at Tsim Sha Tsui Pier in Kowloon. Kowloon has the most densely populated area in the world.




On the way to the skyscraper with an observation deck, you can stop by several parks.




Sky 100 observation deck and high-altitude bar

The observation deck is located on the 100th floor of the skyscraper overlooking Hong Kong and Victoria Bay. A little lifehack is to go to a high-rise bar, which is located in the same building. Yes, expensive, but for the price of a Sky 100 ticket you can easily afford a drink with a view, and there will still be some left over. It's better to arrive early to have room. We arrived just before sunset, in beautiful soft light, and there were no seats by the window. But it was for the best, we ended up just looking and leaving, it turned out to be free. What is worth taking note with this plan is the dress code, you need to look more decent. Usually you need pants and closed shoes, or at least a shirt))



View of the most densely populated area in the world:




Show The Symphony of Lights

In the evening, from the Avenue of Stars you can clearly see the symphony of lights on Hong Kong Island. This action is so attractive that it was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest light show in the world. The show starts at 8 pm and only lasts 15 minutes, but it's worth it.



Clock Tower

A beautiful building from the time of the colonization of Hong Kong by the British.


Avenue of Stars in Hong Kong on the Kowloon Peninsula

This is one of the most popular places in Hong Kong. On the embankment there are a large number of sculptures and monuments to Hollywood stars. And it’s not surprising, because Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan were from Hong Kong, as were a number of other actors and directors.





Bamboo scaffolding on a skyscraper))


Cheng Chau Island

If you want to spend a day at the beach center of Hong Kong, you should go to Cheung Chau Island. It's about half an hour away by high-speed catamaran, which departs from the central pier in Hong Kong. It costs about 20 Hong Kong dollars, you can go for 11 on a slow one. This is not for everybody.

The island was originally a fishing island, densely built up, and a huge number of tourists come here during the daytime. There are fairly clean waters, many beaches and restaurants.















Organization of sewerage)


The cemetery is one of the most difficult problems of island life.

There are several blocks of walking streets, and in each they sell something, feed you something, show something:

A guy paints white sneakers for money:


A disabled man without fingers sprinkles flowers with sparkles:

Look how carefully he does it. I think he loves his job:

The fact is that in Asia they serve horseradish just like that. You either have to be completely armless and legless, or do something. Yes, at least sing or dance, but do it. Because if you have arms and legs, then don’t bother begging, go work. This is what they think in Asia.

These “Ivanushkas” have all their fingers in place, so they have to make faces to the music:

It’s creepy, of course, but how sincere!

The boys rap:

Is this called a song? Well I do not know.

While the others are burning, a comrade sits on guard, guarding their sandwiches and clothes:

Every night she comes here, rolls out a blue cloth and writes messages with white sand:


But no one looks at her. And it’s as if she doesn’t need anyone, she doesn’t even put a hat under the change.

When the canvas is completely covered with writing, she erases it and begins to write again:

These guys were really preparing to perform beautiful songs, but the equipment let them down:

They found the courage to give up trying, apologize to the public and go home. The audience cheered them on with applause. It happens to everyone?

Some more speakers.

Magician. I filmed his performance with... In general, it looks like a yo-yo)) In general, he was cool, he did such feints that the people went wild:

Something familiar melody. In short, one plays and sings, others go crazy:

Another singer. In general, there were a lot of them there, but this one performed his song so frantically that I started listening to it:

The whole thing was guarded by the police:


The name of the store made me laugh:

Entrance to the hairdresser, which is on the second floor. You multiply the prices by 4, we get rubles:

Typical distance between houses:

Pharmacy:

If you move further into the interior, it becomes darker - not everywhere is as light in Hong Kong as in the pictures above:

Even further, and homeless people appear. I thought about putting a brick under my head, this is a joke:


Can anyone translate what he wrote on the poster? Probably “wake me up at 9 with a phone call”)))

Homeless people, of course, are no match for ours - they read, wear neat clothes, fashionable watches:

At night, the shop windows still shine colorfully, except for the bruliks and drags. metals are put into a safe:

A selection of photos of Hong Kong at night:







There is also an embankment there. During the day it’s as usual there, but at night it’s cool because the skyscrapers are shining on the other side. There is a place on Nabka, analogous to the Avenue of Stars in Hollywood. The names are unfamiliar, only Hong Kong and Chinese stars can be seen. They are quite popular in their homeland, but, alas, completely unknown anywhere else.

Although, some still managed to break into Hollywood:

I even touched it, as a souvenir))

There is also a statue of Bruce Lee, who, as you know, put a lot of effort into popularizing cinema in Hong Kong. And, apparently, he also came up with the genre of fights in cinema:

I couldn't resist again))

There were many different statues, and all on the theme of the Hong Kong film studio (Golden Harvest, if my memory serves me correctly). For example, microphone holder:

Surely at night in Hong Kong there are nightclubs, discos and so on, but, firstly, I am not interested in this, and secondly, I would not go through face control))

Poor and rich:

Some look up to others))

Hong Kong is a city that will not leave anyone indifferent :) Hong Kong is a city after which we are not even so impressed :)
