Day 1: Start with a trip to the top of Victoria Peak by taking the Peak Tram, the steepest funicular railway in the world. From here you'll be able to get a bird's-eye view of the Central district's sparkling high-rises, the densely packed streets of Hong Kong Island, the harbor, and all the way to the outer edges of the Kowloon peninsula.
Spend the rest of your first day checking out the centers of activity on Hong Kong Island: the harbor districts of Central and Western with their upscale shopping and landmark skyscrapers, the Midlevels with its series of outdoor escalators leading up the steep mountainside, the hustling Wanchai district, and Causeway Bay and Admiralty with their megamalls and department stores.
If you finish up your day in Admiralty, consider having dinner at one of the great restaurants in the Pacific Place shopping complex.

Day 2: If you're staying on Hong Kong Island, take a ride on the Star Ferry to arrive in the Tsim Sha Tsui neighborhood at the tip of Kowloon (if you're staying in Kowloon, use the ferry to arrive on Hong Kong Island on your first day). The view of the towering city from the water is always an impressive one. Not far from the Star Ferry Terminal on Kowloon are the Hong Kong Space, Science, Art, and History museums. Continuing up Nathan Road you'll come upon the Peninsula Hotel, one of the true landmarks of Hong Kong. Take a peek at the palatial lobby, stop in for a cup of coffee, or come back later for the justifiably popular afternoon tea. Continue up Nathan Road, crammed with stores big and small, on your way to the temples of Tin Hau, the oldest in Hong Kong, and Wong Tai Sin, an explosively colorful and noisy spot with a full concourse of fortune tellers.
Also take this opportunity to visit some of the diverse markets that are unique to Hong Kong. The Yuen Po Bird Garden, with birdcages lining the walkways and busy vendors selling cricket treats for these beloved songbird pets, particularly stands out. Other markets in the area include the enclosed Jade Market, the Flower Market (most interesting in the time leading up to the New Year), and the Ladies and Night markets (the latter starts around 6 PM).
Wrap up your day in Kowloon with a drink or dinner at the Peninsula's Felix restaurant for unparalleled views of neon-lit Central.

Day 3: On your third day, take a hair-raising bus ride from Central to the south side of Hong Kong Island. You'll have an unforgettable view of the island's coastline as the double-decker bus descends from the peaks of the busy shopping and business districts into the sandy coves of Stanley and Repulse Bay. Try to sit in the front of the upper deck for a ride more exciting than any amusement park. Start your visit to the south side with Stanley, wandering through the market before it gets too crowded. If you haven't bought souvenirs yet, this is the best, and cheapest, place to do it. When you're ready for a break from the frenetic market, wander along the waterfront and choose a spot for lunch. In the afternoon, take the bus to the beachfront town of Repulse Bay for a relaxation break on the sunny sand. Then hop the bus back to Central in time for dinner.

Admiralty is an urbanized area on the Hong Kong Island of Hong Kong, China. It is located on the eastern end of the Central and Western District, bordered by Wan Chai to the east and Victoria Harbour to the north. It is so-called because it was the former location of '"Admiralty Dock," which housed a naval yard. The dock was later destroyed when land was reclaimed and developed northward as the HMS Tamar naval base. The Chinese name, Golden Bell, refers to a golden bell once housed at the dock.

HOW TO GET TO STANLEY AND REPULSE BAY - tilbage til oversigt

The south side of Hong Kong Island has much to offer to tourists and locals. To the east of Aberdeen is Repulse Bay, a popular beach among locals. Further east is Stanley which was an old fishing village frequented by pirates a century ago. One of the attractions today include a cave where a famous pirate once hid his treasure. In the main village, the street markets are very popular among tourists. There are also a few beaches in the area. Since Repulse Bay is located on the main road into Stanley, the best way to reach both places is by bus. Below are some popular bus routes :
