Hong Kong, China
     Far East Cruise Port

Hong Kong's unforgettable skyline is clear proof of its financial and commercial success. This former British colony reverted to Chinese control in 1997, yet the culture-rich atmosphere remains. See the Wong Tai Sin Temple, tour local markets and the floating village of Aberdeen, or take in the entire harbor from Victoria Peak, Hong Kong's highest point.

Description

Gleaming skyscrapers tower over pulsating city streets.  Teeming markets lie steps away from sophisticated boutiques.  The thrill is irresistible from the moment you arrive in this thriving metropolis.  East meets West and the result is electric.

Traditional Chinese culture and Western-style commerce blend perfectly in a way unique in all the world.  Although Hong Kong has recently returned to its original Chinese roots, it still remains a cosmopolitan city with influences, languages and accents from around the world.
