72 Sensational Hours in Hong Kong

Day 1: Arrive in Hong Kong
Transfer from the airport to your hotel amongst the iconic skyline of Hong Kong Island or the bustle of Kowloon.In Kowloon, while away the afternoon in the shops of Nathan Road, exploring the ground-breaking K11 Musea or admiring the huge collection a Hong Kong Museum of Art. Cross into West Kowloon to discover the vibrant new cultural quarter with its plentiful shops, cafes and restaurants. Consider heading up to the Sky100 Observation Deck to catch mesmerising 360-degree views of the city, particularly spectacular as the sun sets.

Day 2: Hong Kong Island
For those staying in Kowloon, take the Star Ferry across to Central, on Hong Kong Island. Soar up to the heights of Victoria Peak, the highest point on the island, via the suprisingly nifty 135-year-old Peak Tram. The top offers spectacular views of Hong Kong's iconic skyline.Then, spend time in the charming Aberdeen fishing village, wandering around the picturesque harbour and seafood markets. You can even take a cruise here on a traditional sampan for a more detailed look at the area's history. Pop to the close by neighbourhood of Stanley to browse the wares of Stanley Market, famous for its huge variety of clothes, jewellery and souvenirs.

Day 3: Lantau Island
Head to Tung Chung on Lantau Island and hop onboard the Ngong Ping 360 cable car which will sail you over the glorious landscapes to reach the magnificent Tian Tan Buddha. Climb the steps to admire the Buddha up close or find the start of the Wisdom Path which follows 38 wooden steles. With an appetite worked up for lunch, return to Po Lin Monastery, an important Buddhist sanctum and home to one of Hong Kong's best vegetarian restaurants. Later, travel on to the historic Tai O fishing village. A glimse of a Hong Kong of times long past, see how the Tanka people, a traditional fishing community, live in houses built on stilts.

Depending on the time of your departing flight, you can continue your exporations - there's always more to do in Hong Kong!
