I have never seen a proper skyline until I visited Hong Kong! It was mind boggling for me ( coming from a country with no high rise buildings) to marvel at the architectural genius!! Absolutely amazing, we viewed it from the cruise boat on the river. You can also view it when you cross with the ferry, but at night... More

Enjoy the skyline from the ferry. Board the ferry from the harbour in the evening. Enjoy a late evening in the cruise with drinks, and see the symphony of lights dot the skyline at night. Wow, what a sight! Don't miss this.

My wife and I were told to go to the Kowloon side of the harbor to view the nightly light show. We weren't expecting much, but when the music started we were drawn in like two kids looking at a huge wall of candy. It was awesome! Even without the show, the evening skyline of HK is a must see.... More

Hong Kong's Harbour and skyline is truly world class and is up there with Sydney Harbour as one of the best ever. It is best seen by catching the star ferry at any time of the day or night. Excellent views are available from both sides but the very best view is being based on the Kowloon side (especially on... More

Of course, some vantage points are better than others, but whether day or night, the sights never fail to impress. It's no surprise most buildings in HK often have huge clear glass windows on the side facing the harbor. You'll notice a bit of smog on bad days though.

One of the most beautiful skylines I've seen! Wonderful to walk along the harbor, taking in the breathtaking view of the city lights. You can enjoy the "Symphony of Lights" in the evenings as well! Definitely a must-see!

When the weather is clear (not always the case), Hong Kong by night is quite a view and is worth a look. We spent 4 nights and never got tired of it.

If you come to Hong Kong and are staying on the mainland at Wan Chai as I was, it is a must do to get Star Ferry and cross to Kowloon to see the view both by day and by night. This is well worth seeing and in my eyes comes second to Sydney Harbour from the Bridge Pylon

Went in July, rainy season - we waited around for the rain to clear up to ensure we made the most of our trip. While we didn't get to see any junks, it was such a sight - the buildings, the water, the activity. At night, there was a light show too that was a sure sight. Postcardesque, seriously. Food... More
